In such case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between theprojector and the external devices.f When inputting digital signals to the DVI-I terminal, use a commercially available cable with a ferrite core.Notef When a DVI digital signal is input, some external devices to be connected may require to switch the setting using the [DISPLAY OPTION]menu → [DVI-I IN] → [EDID].f The -I IN> terminal can be connected to HDMI- or DVI-I-compliant devices. However, images may not appear or may not be displayedproperly on some devices.f For an HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to HDMI standardsis used, images may be interrupted or may not be displayed.f The terminal of the projector can be connected to an external device with a DVI terminal by using an HDMI/DVI conversioncable, but some devices may not project the image properly or function properly.f The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI).f If the [HDMI] and [DIGITAL LINK] settings in the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [AUDIO SETTING] → [AUDIO IN SELECT] are incorrect,the projector may have malfunctions such as the absence of audio.
