About remote commander operation
Direct the remote commander toward the
remote control detector.
The shorter the distance between the
remote commander and the projector is,
the wider the angle within which the
remote commander can control the
projector becomes.
Make sure that nothing obstructs the
infrared beam between the remote
commander and the remote control
detector on the projector.
B Preparation
Make sure all the equipment is powered off when connecting the projector.
Use the proper cables for each connection.
Insert the cable plugs firmly; Loose connections may reduce performance of picture signals or
cause a malfunction. When pulling out a cable, be sure to grip it by the plug, not the cable itself.
For more information, refer also to the instruction manuals of the equipment you are connecting.
Use a no-resistance audio cable.

Notes
*1:
This may not be optimum depending on the input signal. In this case, set manually according
to the connected equipment.
*2: Select Off to avoid entering standby mode when there is no input signal.
*3: This varies depending on the Lamp Mode setting.

notice that the lamp has dimmed when its brightness is restored after there is a change in input
signal.
*5: This mode does not work for about three minutes after the lamp lights. A change in signal may
not be detected depending on the input image. The lamp may become brighter at intervals if
you continue to use the projector during lamp dimming. However, this is not a malfunction. If
With No Input is set, it takes priority.
*6: When Standby Mode is set to Low, the network and network control function cannot be
operated while the projector is in standby mode.

Projection Distance
The projection distance is the distance between the front of the lens and the surface of the
projected image. The following describes the projection distance and height from the center of
the lens to edge of screen by each projected screen size. Height H is the height from the bottom
of the projected image (top for ceiling mount) to A (determined by drawing a perpendicular line
from the center of the lens to projected image surface).
Caution
Never mount the projector on the ceiling or move it by yourself. Be sure to consult with
qualified Sony personnel (charged).
