Installation Procedures
3.3.5. Wiring
1) Connecting the power cable
• Refer to the section on Power Cord Connection on page 26 of the operating manual.
• For power source specifications, refer to 3.1 Installation Conditions, paragraph 11.
2) Connecting signal cables
(1) Connection to PCs
• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 21 to 22.
(2) Connection to video units
• Refer to the section with this heading in the operating manual, on pages 23 to 25.
(3) Important Notes
• Use coaxial cables. As a rough guide, use 3C-2V cables for lengths up to 15 meters and 5C-2V cables for
lengths up to 30 meters. Use thicker cables for computer signals, since these signals are more likely to
degrade: 5C-2V cables, for example, for 15-meter lengths. Generally, thicker cables will produce more reli-
able connections. You can also improve signal quality by minimizing cable length.
• Video cables plugged into video inputs and outputs close to dimmers, neon signs, air-conditioning units, or
cables for wired broadcasts may occasionally deliver slightly corrupted images.
3) Processing wires
• Be especially careful in selecting wiring lengths for permanent layouts. For temporary installations for occa-
sional events, this isn’t quite so important.
• Arrange and secure cables so they will not be subject to direct load or physical force. For temporary installa-
tions, securing cables with string should be perfectly adequate. For permanent installations, secure by more
reliable means.
