Connecting Sources
All source connections are made to the input panel of the Electronics Module (EM). Each input is labeled for
easy identification. Using the correct cable(s), connect your source. An interconnection label is available for
reference on the light module. The Input Panel has slots for 1 image processor board and up to 4 optional input
cards. The input cards are hot swappable; they can be plugged in and out while the projector is running.
However, the image processor should only be replaced when the projector is OFF or in STANDBY mode.
The video card installed in your projector determines the type of video sources available. These video cards are
supported:
• High-Definition Multimedia Interface/Twin HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
• Analog BNC
• Dual SD/HD-SDI (Serial Digital Interface)
• Dual Link DVI
• Video Decoder
These cards slide into any of the available option slots. One or more of the option slots may be used with any
combination of option cards, including multiples of the same card type. Up to 2 active inputs can be displayed
at any time, either from 1 card or from 2 cards. These 2 inputs can be routed to outputs or to the main or
secondary video image.
NOTE:
Use only high-quality shielded cables for all connections.
The LEDs located on the faceplate of each input card will indicate the following:
• Power ON - Green
• Signal Valid - Green
• Signal Invalid - OFF
2.5.1 DVI Digital Video
Use the DVI-I connector to connect either analog or digital video devices to the projector. Use a cable with
DVI-I connectors at both ends to connect devices that transmit digital and analog video signals.
NOTE:
For true digital output from devices that transmit digital signals, connect to the DVI-I connector.
2.5.2 Dual Link DVI Input Card
This card accepts a maximum 330MHz DVI-D or 165MHz HDMI signal via the DVI-I connector without
High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) and analog video signals over the DVI-I or 15-pin VGA
connector. The module can simultaneously support a digital signal on the DVI input and an analog signal on
the VGA port, however it does not support 2 analog signals at the same time. There are 4 LEDs on the module
faceplate.
PWR
indicates power is applied and the card is initialized, and the other 3 LEDs on the right-side of
the corresponding connectors indicate that a valid signal has been detected.
