rHazard distance (IEC/EN 62471-5:2015)
The distance from the projection lens surface, at which the emission reaches
the Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) of risk group 2, is known as the hazard
distance (HD) or safety distance. The area where the emission exceeds the
Accessible Emission Limit of risk group 2 is called the hazard zone (HZ).
Within the hazard zone, never look into the light projected from the
projector. The eyes may be damaged by direct irradiation even if you look at
the light just for a moment. If you are outside the hazard zone, it is
considered to be safe in all circumstances except deliberately staring into
the light projected from the projector.

rRisk group
The combination of the projector and the projection lens is categorized as
risk group 2 when the hazard distance is 1 m (39-3/8″) or less. It is
categorized as risk group 3 when the hazard distance exceeds 1 m (39-3/8″),
and it will be for professional use instead of consumer use. In case of risk
group 3, there is a possibility of damaging the eyes by direct irradiation
when looking into the projection light from inside the hazard zone even for a
moment. In the case of risk group 2, safe use without damaging the eyes is
possible in all circumstances except deliberately staring into the light
projected from the projector.
The combination of the projector and the projection lens which the hazard
distance exceeds 1 m (39-3/8″) and is categorized as risk group 3 is as

function of the projector is used. The license of wireless station is not
required, but understand the following when using. To use the wireless LAN
function with the projector, it is necessary to attach the optional Wireless
Module (Model No.: AJ-WM50 Series).
rDo not use close to other wireless devices.
Following devices may be using radio wave in the same bandwidth as the
projector. Using the projector close to these devices may cause the
communication to be disabled or the communication speed to slow down due to
interference of radio wave. f Microwave oven, etc. f Industrial, scientific,
or medical devices, etc. f In-plant wireless station for identifying moving
vehicles used in the manufacturing lines at a plant f Specified low power
wireless station
rDo not use cell phone, television, or radio as much as possible close to the
projector.
Cell phone, television, or radio is using radio wave with different bandwidth
from the projector, so there is no effect on the wireless LAN communication or
the send/receive on these devices. However, noise may occur in the audio or
video due to the radio wave from the projector.
rRadio wave for wireless LAN communication does not go through the reinforcing
bars, metal, or concrete.
The projector can communicate through wall or floor made of wood or glass
(excluding the glass with metal mesh embedded), but it cannot communicate
through wall or floor made of reinforcing bars, metal, or concrete.
rDo not use the projector as much as possible in a location where static
electricity is generated.
The communication via wireless LAN or wired LAN may be prone to disruption
when the projector is used in a location where static electricity or noise is
generated. There is a rare case that the LAN connection may not be established
due to static electricity or noise, so in such case, turn off the projector,
remove the source of problematic static electricity or noise, and turn the
projector back on.

Formula for calculating the projection distance per projection lens
To use a projected image size not listed in this manual, check the projected
image size SD (m) and use the respective formula to calculate projection
distance. The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following
calculation formulae contain a slight error.) When calculating a projection
distance using image size designation (value in inches), multiply the value in
inches by 0.0254 and substitute it into SD in the formula for calculating the
projection distance.

Chapter 2Getting Started — Connecting
Before connecting
f Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the
external device to be connected. f Turn off the power of all devices before
connecting cables. f Connect cables taking care of the following descriptions.
Failure to do so may result in malfunctions.
g When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the
projector itself, touch any nearby
metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before
performing work. g Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect a device to
the projector or to the projector 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. g
When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal
of the connecting device in a straight manner. f Acquire any connection cable
necessary to connect the external device to the system that is neither
supplied with the device nor available as an option.
f To use the Function Board, install it in the slot in advance.
Requesting a qualified technician to install the Function Board in the slot or
remove from the slot is recommended. A malfunction may occur due to static
electricity. Consult your dealer. For details on installing the Function Board
in the slot, refer to “Installing the Function Board” (x page 56). f For the
connection when the optional 12G-SDI Terminal Board (Model No.: TY-SB01QS) is
installed in the slot, refer to “For <SDI 1 IN> / <SDI 2 IN> / <SDI 3 IN> /
<SDI 4 IN> /
If the signal output from DisplayPort is input to the projector, use of the
computer equipped with the latest chipset or graphics card is recommended. f
Connect using an extension device, etc., when installing the projector away
from the video equipment. The projector may not display the image properly
when it is connected directly using a long cable. f For details of the types
of image signals that can be used with the projector, refer to “List of
compatible signals” (x page 295).

f When HDMI signal is input, switching of the setting in the [DISPLAY OPTION]
menu [HDMI IN] [HDMI1] / [HDMI2] [EDID SELECT] may be required depending on
the connected external device or the input signal.
f For the HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to the HDMI
standards. However, when the following 4K image signal exceeding the supported
transmission speed of the HDMI High Speed cable is to be input, use the HDMI
cable supporting the high speed transmission of 18 Gbps such as the one with
Premium HDMI cable authentication. g An image signal with high specification
color depth and gradation such as 3840 x 2160/60p 4:2:2/36-bit or 3840 x
2160/60p 4:4:4/24-bit Images may be disrupted or may not be projected when an
image signal exceeding the supported transmission speed of the HDMI cable is

signal: 50 m (164’1″) (when using a cable of L-5.5CUHD), 20 m (65’7″) (when
using a cable of 5C-FB)
f Use the BNC connector that is compatible with the coaxial cable and type of
the signal to be used. f Setting the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu [SLOT IN] is
required depending on the connected external device or the input signal. f The
Chapter 2Getting Started — Connecting
f Directly connect the projector with the external device that will output the
signal without going through a distributor, etc., when inputting quad link
signals. A phase difference is generated between the signals of Link 1, Link
2, Link 3, and Link 4, and the image may not be projected correctly.
f An error in signal detection may occur when an unsteady signal is input to
the projector. In such case, set the [DISPLAY OPTION] menu [SLOT IN] to the
content corresponding to the input signal.
