Connecting to an HDBaseT Transmitter

To send an HDMI or RS-232C signal over a long distance, you can connect the projector to an optional
HDBaseT transmitter using a 100Base-TX network cable. This is useful when you want to send a signal
to or control the projector from a remote location, such as in a hall or event site, since you can use a
network cable up to 328 feet (100 m) in length. To ensure proper data transmission, use a Category 5e
STP cable or better.

Note:

Set the

A/V Output

setting to

Always On

in the Signal I/O menu to control the projector when it is

not projecting any images.

1.

Turn off the projector and HDBaseT transmitter.

Note:

Make sure the projector and HDBaseT transmitter are turned off when connecting or

disconnecting a network cable between the two devices.

2.

Connect one end of the network cable to the

HDBaseT

port on the transmitter.

3.

Connect the other end to the projector's

HDBaseT

port.

Note:

See the documentation that came with the HDBaseT transmitter for instructions on connecting

it to your video device or computer.

4.

Turn on the projector and HDBaseT transmitter.

Note:

To enable communication from the Ethernet and serial ports on the transmitter, enable

Control

Communications

in the HDBaseT settings of the projector's Signal I/O menu. Turning on this setting

disables the projector's

LAN

and

RS-232C

ports. If you connected an Extron XTP transmitter or switcher

to the projector's

HDBaseT

port, select

On

as the

Extron XTP

setting in the projector's Signal I/O menu.
