Connections
Proceed as follows to connect the CRYSTAL4-SH to video sources, control devices,
screen control systems and AC power.
When connecting your equipment:

turn off all equipment before making any connections

use the correct signal cables for each source

make sure cables are routed so that people are not impeded or become a trip
hazard

ensure that the cables are securely connected (tighten the thumbscrews on
connectors that have them)
HDMI The major benefits of this signal type are:

best image quality, because the signal is carried in the digital domain throughout
the entire signal path
 highest available resolution, because video sources can deliver full resolution
content via HDMI only

optimization of several image parameters (color space, aspect, signal range, over
scan), thanks to auxiliary information (AVI infoframe) sent by the source device
together with the signal.
If your source has dual HDMI outputs, we would recommend direct connection to the
projector from one of the HDMI connections and the second HDMI output to the
input of an appropriate AV receiver/processor for audio.
Sources with a DVI-D output can be connected to the HDMI input of the projector
using a suitable DVI-D to HDMI cable. In this case no auxiliary information is sent from
the source to the projector.
Note: HDMI uses a code known as HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Copy Protection),
which protects the recorded supports from being copied illegally. The connection
between the source and display requires that the two devices perform a handshake
and exchange code keys before being able to display an image. The InstaPort
technology allows a simultaneous pre-authentication of every attached device at the
same it is connected, reducing drastically the time required for HDMI source
switching. For this reason you may note a slight delay before the image appears on the
screen, but it is perfectly normal.

Graphics RGB Input for Personal Computer and other sources that outputs RGB or
YPrPb signals. These sources must be able to provide separate H/V sync or
composite H+V sync.
