About Remote Commander operation
• Direct the Remote Commander toward the
remote control receiver.
• The shorter the distance between the
Remote Commander and the projector is,
the wider the angle within which the
Remote Commander can control the
projector becomes.
• If there is any obstruction between the
Remote Commander and the remote
control receiver on the projector, the
projector may not be able to receive
signals from the Remote Commander.
Note
If you set “ECO Mode” to “ECO,” or
“Standby Mode” (in “User”) to “Low,”
the network control function will be
disabled in standby mode. If the external
control is being performed by using the
network or network control function, do
not select “ECO,” or do not set “Standby
Mode” (in “User”) to “Low.”

B Preparation
Connecting the Projector
Notes
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the proper cables for each connection.
• Insert the cable plugs firmly; Loose connections may reduce performance of picture signals or
cause a malfunction. When pulling out a cable, be sure to grip it by the plug, not the cable itself.
• For more information, refer also to the instruction manuals of the equipment you are connecting.
• Use a no-resistance audio cable.

Notes for connecting this unit and the HDBaseT transmitter
• Ask a professional or Sony dealer to perform wiring. If wiring is not correct, the transmission
characteristics of the cable will not be achieved, and image or sound may break up or you
may experience unstable performance.
• Connect the cable directly to the HDBaseT transmitter without going through a hub or router.
• Use cables that meet the following conditions.
- CAT5e or higher
- Shielded type (covering connectors)
- Straight wire connection
-Single wire
• When installing the cables, use a cable tester, cable analyzer, or similar device to check if the
cables meet the CAT5e or higher requirement. If there is a transit connector between this unit
and the HDBaseT transmitter, include it when measuring.
• To reduce the affect of noise, install and use the cable in a manner where it is not rolled up
and it is as straight as possible.
• Install the cable away from the other cables (especially the power cable).
• When installing multiple cables, do not bind them and keep the running parallel distance as
short as possible.
14
• The transmittable distance of the cable is 100 m (approx. 328 feet) maximum. If it exceeds
100 m (approx. 328 feet), it may cause the image or the sound to break up, or cause a
multifunction in LAN communication. Do not use the HDBaseT transmitter beyond the
transmittable distance.
• Inquire about operation or function problems caused by other manufacturer’s devices with
the relevant manufacturer.

overlapping range for the source signal.
Assign the width here.
• The procedure shown above is for general
guidance. Your own installation may vary
according to the situation.
• When multiple projectors are set up in a line,
the temperature inside the projectors may
increase due to exhaust vent proximity, and
an error indication may result.
In this case, space the projectors farther apart
and/or install deflection partitioning between
them.
For more details, consult with qualified Sony
personnel.
Turning Off the Power

Notes
• Depending on the blending start position or
the blending width, the menu may overlap
with the blending area and become invisible.
If you want to operate the projector while
viewing the menu, set “Edge Blending” to
“Off” once and make adjustments. Then, set
“Edge Blending” to “On.”
