Connecting Example Using Digital Link - Panasonic PT-MZ10K Operating Instructions Manual

f The <DVI-D IN> terminal supports single links only.
f If you operate the projector using the computer with the resume feature (last memory), you may have to reset the resume feature to operate
the projector.

Connecting example using DIGITAL LINK

Twisted-pair-cable transmitters based on the communication standard HDBaseT
LINK output supported device (Model No.: ET-YFB100G, ET-YFB200G) use the twisted pair cable to transmit
input images, Ethernet, and serial control signal, and the projector can input such digital signal to the <DIGITAL
LINK> terminal.

Control computer
*1 Control target is the projector or the twisted-pair-cable transmitter. The control itself may not be possible depending on the twisted-pair-cable
transmitter. Check the operating instructions of the device to be connected.
Attention
f Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR.
g Use a VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC).
g Use a time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR.
f The image may be disrupted when nonstandard burst signal is connected. In such a case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between
the projector and the external devices.
f Ask a qualified technician or your dealer to install the cable wiring between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. Image may
be disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.
f For the LAN cable between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:
g Conforming to CAT5e or higher standards
g Shielded type (including connectors)
g Straight-through
g Single wire
g Diameter of the cable core is same or larger than AWG24 (AWG24, AWG23, etc.)
f When laying cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, confirm that cable characteristics are compatible with
CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer.
When a relay connector is used, include it in the measurement.
f Do not use a hub between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
f When connecting to the projector using a twisted-pair-cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturers, do not place another twisted-pair-
cable transmitter between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturers and the projector. This may cause image to be disrupted.
f The <DIGITAL LINK> terminal and <LAN> terminal are connected inside of the projector. If both the <DIGITAL LINK> terminal and <LAN>
terminal are used, configure the system so that these terminals are not directly connected or connected through peripheral devices such as
a hub or a twisted-pair-cable transmitter to the same network.
f To transmit the Ethernet and serial control signals using the <DIGITAL LINK> terminal, set the [NETWORK] menu → [NETWORK
CONTROL] → [TYPE SELECT] to [DIGITAL LINK] or [LAN & DIGITAL LINK].
f To transmit the Ethernet signal using the <LAN> terminal, set the [NETWORK] menu → [NETWORK CONTROL] → [TYPE SELECT] to
[LAN] or [LAN & DIGITAL LINK].
f The <DIGITAL LINK> terminal and the <LAN> terminal are connected inside of the projector when the [NETWORK] menu → [NETWORK
CONTROL] → [TYPE SELECT] is set to [LAN & DIGITAL LINK]. Do not directly connect the <DIGITAL LINK> terminal and the <LAN>
terminal using a LAN cable. Construct the system so that it is not connected to the same network via the peripherals such as the hub or the
twisted-pair-cable transmitter.
f Do not pull cables forcefully. Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
