Connecting to Video Equipment or a 
Computer
You can enjoy high picture quality by connecting a DVD player/recorder, Blu-ray Disc player/
recorder, or PlayStation® equipped with HDMI output to the HDMI input of the unit.
When making connections, be sure to do the following:
 Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
 Use the proper cables for each connection.
 Insert the cable plugs properly; poor connection at the plugs may cause a malfunction or poor 
picture quality. When pulling out a cable, be sure to pull it out from the plug, not the cable 
itself.
 Refer to the operating instructions of the connected equipment.

 Use a high-speed HDMI cable. With a standard HDMI cable, images of 1080p, DeepColor, 3D 
video and 4K video may not be displayed properly.
 When connecting an HDMI cable to the unit, make sure the 
V mark on the upper part of the HDMI 
input of the unit and the v mark on the connector of the cable is set at the same position.
 If the picture from equipment connected to the unit with an HDMI cable is not correct, check the 
settings of the connected equipment.
 If you set your computer, such as a notebook type, to output the signal to both computer’s display 
and this equipment, the picture of the equipment may not appear properly. Set your computer to 
output the signal to only the external monitor. For details, refer to the computer’s operating 
instructions supplied with your computer. For settings of the computer, consult with the 
manufacturer of the computer.
 Even if the cable is connected to the HDMI INPUT 1 connector, the signal compatible with HDCP 
2.2 cannot be displayed correctly. Be sure to connect the cable to the HDMI INPUT 2 connector.

Watching 3D Video 
Images
You can enjoy powerful 3D video images, 
such as from 3D games and 3D Blu-ray 
Discs, using the optional Active 3D Glasses 
(TDG-BT500A).
1Turn on the HDMI equipment for 3D 
compatibility connected to the unit, 
then play the 3D content.
For details on how to play 3D content, 
refer to the operating instructions for the 
connected equipment.
2Turn on the unit and project the 3D 
video image onto the screen.
For details on how to project the image, 
see “Projecting the Picture” (page 15).
3Turn on the 3D glasses, and then put 
them on so that they fit comfortably.
For details on how to use the 3D glasses, 
see “Using the 3D Glasses” (page 16).
Tips
 The factory default setting for ”2D-3D 
Display Sel.” is “Auto” to allow projecting 
3D video images automatically when the unit 
detects 3D signals.
 To convert 3D video images to 2D video 
images, set “2D-3D Display Sel.” to “2D” 
(page 36).
 It may not be possible to display 3D video 
image, depending on the type of signal. Set 
the “2D-3D Display Sel.” to “3D,” and “3D 
Format” to “Side-by-Side” or “Over-Under” 
to suit the format of the 3D content you want 
to watch (page 36).
 Use the 3D glasses within the 
communication range (page 16).
 There are differences in perception of 3D 
video images among individuals.
 When the temperature of the usage 
environment is low, the 3D effect may be 
diminished.
Adjusting/Setting the 3D functions
You can adjust/set the 3D functions by 
pressing the 3D button on the remote control 
or with the “3D Settings” of the Function    
menu. For details, see “3D Settings” 
(page 36).
1Turn on the 3D glasses, and register 
them on the unit.
For details on how to register the 3D 
glasses, refer to the operating 
instructions supplied with the 3D 
glasses.
2Put on the 3D glasses.
3Turn toward the screen.
Precautions for use
Misoperation may occur if:
 The viewing position is too far from the 
projector 
 There are other communication devices, 
such as a wireless LAN (IEEE802.11 b/g/
n) or a microwave with a bandwidth of 2.4 
GHz, near the unit
3D glasses communication range
Figure below indicate the communication 
range of the 3D glasses. If you try to watch 
3D video images from a distance greater 
than the communication range or install the 
unit outside the communication range, the 
3D glasses may not be able to display the 
images properly. Also, the distance varies 
depending on the environment of the room 
and installation environment of the unit.

In the example below, the images with 
aspect ratio of 1.78:1 (16:9) and 2.35:1 are 
projected on a 2.35:1 screen.

lens position, the lens starts to move. Do not 
touch, or place anything near, the lens, 
otherwise it may cause injury or a 
malfunction.
 If you press any button on the remote control 
or the unit while the lens is moving, the lens 
stops. In this case, select the lens position

 When you use the subtended screen angle of 
two or more aspects using lens zoom, install 
the unit within the specified parameters 
referring to “Projection distance” (page 66). 
With some setting positions, the range of lens 
shift may be restricted, even though the unit 
is installed within the specified parameters.
