Installing the Unit

The installation distance between the unit

and a screen varies depending on the size of

the screen or whether or not you use the lens

shift features. Install this unit so that it fits

the size of your screen. For details on the

distance between the unit and the screen (the

projection distance) and the size of projected

video, see “Projection Distance and Lens

Shift Range” (page 60).

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

• Use a High Speed HDMI cable or a Premium 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.

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).

1 Turn 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.

2 Turn 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 13).

3 Turn 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 14).

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 31).

• 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 31).

• Use the 3D glasses within the

communication range (page 14).

• 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 31).

1 Turn 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.

2 Put on the 3D glasses.

3 Turn 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.
