Install the transmitter at 70°when you use it in Taiwan or Korea.
Vertical direction (suspended from a ceiling) Vertical direction (placed on a table and so on)
The wireless transmission range varies depending on the placement and material of the surrounding
c
furniture and walls. The values given here are for your reference only.
The projector cannot communicate through walls.
The antennas are built-into the front of the projector and the WirelessHD Transmitter. Make sure the antennas face each other (face the front) when setting up the devices. Also, do not place any object over the front side of the projector and WirelessHD Transmitter.
Do not install the transmitter on a metal shelf. The metal may make the signal unstable. Install on a shelf made from wood etc.
When checking operations, place the projector and the WirelessHD Transmitter close to each other, and make sure there are no other projectors operating in the vicinity.
Depending on the reception strength, the image's color information may be automatically discarded to avoid any interruptions and maintain a constant connection. To avoid any deterioration in image quality, adjust the position of the WirelessHD Transmitter so that the Video Reception is as strong as possible.
Reception sensitivity varies depending on the resolution of the input image. Therefore, you may not be able to achieve the same reception sensitivity when inputting a 1080p image and when inputting a 4K image.
