Before connecting
● Before connecting cables, carefully read the operating
instructions for the external device to be connected.
● Turn off the power of all devices before connecting
cables.
● Take note of the following points before connecting
the cables. Failure to do so may result in
malfunctions.
• When connecting a cable to the unit or a device
connected to the unit itself, touch any nearby
metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from
your body before performing work.
• Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect
a device to the unit or to the unit body. The
longer the cable, the more susceptible to noise it
becomes. Since using a cable while it is wound
makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible
to noise.
• When connecting cables, insert them straight into
the connecting terminal of the connecting device
so that the ground is connected first.
● Acquire any cable necessary to connect the external
device to the system that is neither supplied with the
device nor available as an option.
● If the outer shape of the plug of a connection cable is
large, it may come in contact with the periphery such
as a back cover or the plug of an adjacent connection
cable. Use a connection cable with the suitable plug
size for the terminal alignment.
● When connecting the LAN cable with plug cover, be
aware that the cover may come in contact with the
back cover and it may be difficult to disconnect.
● If video signals from video equipment contain too
much jitter, the images on the screen may wobble.
In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be
connected.
● When the sync signals output from PC or video
equipment are disturbed, for example, when changing
settings of video output, the colour of the video may
be disturbed temporarily.
● The unit accepts, YP

the unit using long cables. Otherwise the image may
not be displayed properly.
● Refer to “Preset Signals” (see page 166) for the types
of video signals that can be displayed with the unit.
