N Connects the projector to external input and output devices, such as the Christie ACT.
O Connects the projector to non-cinema video and graphics sources. These are single-link ports
for single-link cables and connectors. The connectors can be used together as a twin-link DVI
port.
P Connects the projector to high-definition cinema sources. The connectors can be used
together to deliver Dual Link HD-SDI following the SMPTE 372M standard.

Connect the Projector to a Computer

Connect one end of an Ethernet or a RS232 cable to the Ethernet or the RS232 PIB port on the
projector communications panel and the other end to your computer. To communicate with the
projector, the projector must be added to the same network as the computer. See
to a Network on page 16.

Connect Devices to the GPIO Port

The GPIO port is a 37-pin D-sub connector located on the PIB input panel. The port provides 8 input
and 7 output signals for connecting external devices to the projector. To configure the pins on the
connector, tap Menu > Administrator Setup > GPIO Setup.
Each available pairing of pins (±) is defined as an input or an output. Four inputs and three outputs
are predefined. If you want the projector to respond to an incoming signal, configure a pin as an
input. If you want an external device to respond to the projector as an output signal, configure a
pin as an output.
