SIGNAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
5 Composite 1 (CVBS 1)
Uses a BNC connector to receive a Composite Video input 
signal.
6 S-Video
Uses a 4-pin mini-DIN connector.
7 3G-SDI
Uses a BNC connector to receive uncompressed, 
unencrypted digital video. If two video streams are 
being transmitted, set 3G Level B Stream in the Setup/
Input Configuration menu to choose one of them.
8 VGA
Receives analog signal from a computer. When using this 
input, it is best to use a fully wired VGA cable to connect the 
source to the projector. This will allow the source to determine 
the projector’s capabilities via DDC and show an optimized 
image. Such cables can be identified as they have a blue 
connector shell. 
Use Auto Setup in the Image/VGA Setup menu.
9 Composite 2 (CVBS 2)
Uses an RCA phono connector to receive composite video.
Notes
 For a complete listing of pin 
configurations for all signal and 
control connectors, see  Appendix 
E: Wiring Details in the Reference 
Guide .

menu in the Operating Guide.

SIGNAL INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
EDID on the DVI and VGA inputs
If you connect a computer graphics card or other source which uses DDC t\
o discover the capabilities of the attached display, it will 
automatically configure itself to the best settings when connected to the projector via DVI, HDMI or VGA inputs.
Otherwise refer to the documentation supplied with the source to manuall\
y set the resolution to the DMD™ resolution of the projector or the 
nearest suitable setting. Switch off the source, connect to the projector, then switch the source back on again.
Using HDMI/DVI switchers with the projector
When using an HDMI/DVI source switcher with the projector, it is important to set the switcher so that it passes the projector ED\
ID through to 
the source devices. If this is not done, the projector may not be able t\
o lock to the source or display the source correctly as its video output\
 
timings may not be compatible with those of the projector. Sometimes this is called transparent, pass-through or clone mode. See \
your 
switcher’s manual for information on how to set this mode.
Additionally, sources which use HDCP encryption may not display properly when connected to the projector via\
 a switcher. Refer to the 
switcher’s manual for more information.

Connection Guide
CONTROL CONNECTIONS
Control Connections
1 Update port
All of the projector’s features can be controlled via a serial 
connection, using the commands described in the Protocol 
Guide.
In addition, the Update port is used to download, via 
LAN, firmware updates issued from time to time by Digital 
Projection.
Use a crossed LAN cable to connect directly to a computer, 
or an uncrossed cable to connect to a network hub.
2 RS232
All of the projector’s features can be controlled via a serial 
connection, using commands described in the Protocol 
Guide.
Use a null-modem cable to connect directly to a computer, 
or a straight cable to connect to a modem.
3 LAN
The projector Warp function is controlled through this port.
In addition, this port can be used with Virtual OSD to control 
the projector.
Use a crossed LAN cable to connect directly to a computer, 
or an uncrossed cable to connect to a network hub.
4 Wired remote output
To synchronize the control of multiple projectors, connect 
the wired remote output of one projector to the wired remote 
input of another.
  Wired remote input
If infrared signals from the remote control cannot reach the 
projector due to excessive distance or obstructions such 
as walls or cabinet doors, you can connect an external IR 
repeater to the remote control input, and position its IR 
sensor within range of the operator.
5 Service port
The Service port is used to download, via USB, firmware 
updates issued from time to time by Digital Projection.

control connectors, see  Appendix 
E: Wiring Details in the Reference 
Guide .
 For a list of all commands used to 
control the projector via an RS232 or 
LAN connection, see the  Protocol 
Guide .
 Virtual OSD is a software 
application used to control the 
projector via LAN using a computer 
browser. To learn more, see the 
Protocol Guide .
 Only one remote connection (RS232 
or LAN) should be used at any one 
time.
 Plugging in the remote control cable 
will disable the infrared receivers.
