Note
f
For the signal with resolution of 1 920 x 1 200 dots or less, the maximum transmission distance is 100 m (328'1") when connected with the
DIGITAL LINK communication method. For the signal with the resolution exceeding 1 920 x 1 200 dots, the maximum transmission distance
is 50 m (164'1").
f
The maximum transmission distance when connected with the long-reach communication method is 150 m (492'2"). In this case, the signal
that the projector can receive is only up to 1080/60p (1 920 x 1 080 dots, dot clock frequency 148.5 MHz).
f
When the communication method of the twist-pair-cable transmitter is set to long reach, the projector will connect with long-reach
communication method when [DIGITAL LINK MODE] is set to [AUTO]. To connect with the optional DIGITAL LINK Switcher (Model No.:
ET-YFB200G) with the long-reach communication method, set [DIGITAL LINK MODE] to [LONG REACH]..
f
Connection will not be made correctly if the twist-pair-cable transmitter is not supporting the long-reach communication method even if
[DIGITAL LINK MODE] is set to [LONG REACH].

[---]: When there is no signal
[SIGNAL QUALITY]
[SIGNAL QUALITY] is a numerical value of the amount of error, and the display color changes to
green, yellow, or red depending on that value.
Check the signal quality level while receiving a signal from the twisted-pair-cable transmitter.
f
[MAX]/[MIN]: Maximum/minimum value of the amount of error.
f
Green (-12 dB or lower) → normal signal quality level.
f
Yellow (-11 to -8 dB) → caution level that noise may appear on the screen.
f
Red (-7 dB or higher) → abnormal level with interrupted synchronization and receiving not possible.
[DIGITAL LINK MENU]
When the optional DIGITAL LINK output supported device (Model No.: ET-YFB100G, ET-YFB200G) is connected
to the <DIGITAL LINK> terminal, the main menu of the connected DIGITAL LINK output supported device is
displayed. Refer to the Operating Instructions of the DIGITAL LINK output supported device for details.
Note
f
[DIGITAL LINK MENU] cannot be selected when [EXTRON XTP] is set to [ON].
