    When connecting a single link signal, connect to the LINK-A terminal. • 
    When connecting a dual link signal, connect to both the LINK-A and LINK-B terminals. • 
    Note
    You can switch the input format mode from the SYSTEM SELECTOR menu. (pp. 58-59) • 
    Settings specific to the connected device are required. (pp. 74-75) • 
    To send the pictures properly, use a connecting cable with the specifications of Canare 5CFB or higher (5CFB,  • 
    7CFB, etc.) or of Belden1694A or higher. Also, use a cable that is shorter than 100 m.
    Make sure that the cables used to link LINK-A terminal and LINK-B terminal are of the same type and length.  • 
    If there is a difference in length greater than 4 m between the two cables, the images will not be projected 
    correctly.
    When connecting to dual link signals, connect directly to the signal output device without connecting through a  • 
    distributor or other such device. A phase difference may occur between the LINK-A signal and LINK-B signal, 
    which may prevent the image from being correctly projected.
    If the connected signal is unstable, the signal auto-detect function may not operate correctly. In this case,  • 
    switch to a mode that better suits the signal format from the SYSTEM SELECTOR menu.

    The DVI-D signal input module supports only a single link. • 
    The HDMI-DVI-D conversion cable is required to connect an HDMI-compliant device. • 
    When using the DVI-D input, EDID settings may be required for the connected device. (pp. 73, 74) • 
    It is possible to connect the DVI-D input module with an HDMI- or DVI-D-compliant device, but with some  • 
    devices the images may not appear or other problems may be encountered in operation.
    *1: The LAN terminal present on the optional input card cannot be used with the PT-D12000U/PT-DZ12000U. Use 
    the LAN terminal that is provided as standard with the projector.

    How to install and remove the projection lens (optional)
    Adjust the lens shift position so that it is at the home 
    position (p. 41) before installing or removing the 
    projection lens.
    Attention
    Remove the dust-proof sponge from the lens fitting  • 
    of the projector before installing the projection lens. 
    (Keep the dust-proof sponge in a safe place for 
    later use if needed.)
    After removing the projection lens, install the dust- • 
    proof sponge to the lens fitting of the projector in 
    order to stop dust from getting inside the projector.

    After a short while, the projector will 
    switch to standby mode.
    Attention
    While the projector is in cooling mode (when the  • 
    power indicator lamp is lit orange), the internal fan 
    is running to cool down the projector. Do not turn 
    off the MAIN POWER switch or disconnect the 
    power cord at this time.
    Note
    If the POWER ON “ | ” button is pressed while  • 
    the projector is still in cooling mode, it may take 
    some time before the projector is ready to project 
    pictures.
      Connecting the power 
    cord
    Insert the accessory power cord securely into the 
    projector and the electrical outlet.
    Be sure to read the “IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE” 
    (pp. 4-5) and “Precautions with regard to safety” 
    (pp. 6-9) for details on handling the power cord. 
    Installation  „
    Check the shape of the AC  1. 
    IN terminal on the side of the 
    projector and the shape of the 
    power cord connector, and insert 
    the power cord securely into the 
    AC IN terminal.
    Insert the power cord plug into  2. 
    an electrical outlet.
    Removal
      „
    Check that the MAIN POWER  1. 
    switch on the projector is at 
    the OFF “○” position, and then 
    disconnect the power cord plug 
    from the electrical outlet. 
    Remove the power cord from the  2. 
    AC IN terminal while pressing 
    the lock button on the power 
    cord connector.
    Attention
    Connect all peripheral equipment to the projector  • 
    before connecting the projector’s power cord.

    Powering up the projector
    1
      Connect the supplied power 
    cable. (120 V/240 V, 50 Hz/60 Hz)
    2
      Press the “ | ” marked side of the 
    MAIN POWER switch to turn on 
    the power.
    The power indicator lamp on the projector will  • 
    flash in red. After a short period, the indicator 
    will illuminate and the projector will enter 
    standby mode.
    3
      Press POWER ON “ | ”.
    The power indicator lamp illuminates in green  • 
    and soon the image is projected on the screen.
    Note
    If the projector is powered up at about 0 ÃC, a  • 
    warm-up period of approximately 5 minutes may 
    be necessary to start projection. The temperature 
    monitor (TEMP) lamp lights up during the warm-up 
    period. When the warm-up is completed, the 
    temperature monitor (TEMP) lamp turns off and the 
    image is projected on the screen.
    If the temperature of the operating environment is  • 
    low and warm-up takes more than 5 minutes, the 
    projector will judge that a problem has occurred 
    and the power will be turned off automatically. If 
    this happens, increase the temperature around the 
    projector so that it is 0 ÃC or higher, and then turn 
    on the MAIN POWER switch and the POWER ON 
    “ | ” switch once more.

    The projection of the image stops, and the  • 
    power indicator lamp of the main unit lights up 
    orange. (The cooling fan keeps running.)
    3
      Wait until the power indicator 
    lamp of the main unit turns to 
    red (i.e., until the cooling fan 
    stops). (Approx. 3 minutes)

      Press the “○” marked side of the 
    MAIN POWER switch to remove 
    all power from the projector.
    Note
    In the cooling state after the power is turned off, the  • 
    lamp will not light up even if the power is turned on. 
    To light up the lamp, turn on the power supply again 
    when the lamp has been cooled sufficiently.
    The projector consumes approximately 15 W (240 V  • 
    mode) and 10 W (120 V mode) of power even in 
    standby mode. (Power indicator lamp lit in red)
    If the main power is mistakenly turned off during  • 
    use, the lamp may not relight after power is 
    restored. Please wait a few moments, then try 
    again.
    Be sure to set the date and time when 
    the projector is turned on for the first 
    time after being purchased. For details, 
    refer to “Setting the date and time” on
