Troubleshooting (continued)
Images aren’t projected correctly.
Problem |
| Cause and solution | |
|
| ||
Projected images are shaking. | • Check that the cable connected to the external device isn’t intermittent. | ||
• | Connect the cable’s plug with the external device’s connector firmly. | ||
Projected images are displaced. | • | Press the AUTO POSITION button. | |
| • Some computers output | ||
|
|
| |
Projected images are distorted. | • | Adjust the projector and the screen so that they are perpendicular to each other. (See page 12.) | |
|
| ||
| • Adjust BRIGHTNESS in the IMAGE menu. (See page 18.) | ||
Projected images are dark. | • | Replace the lamp. (See page 22.) | |
| • Remove the lens cap. | ||
|
| ||
| • Adjust the focus. (See page 13.) | ||
| • | Clean the lens. | |
Projected images are blurred. | • | Remove the lens cap. | |
| • Adjust BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST in the IMAGE menu. (See page 18.) | ||
| • Adjust the projector and the screen so that they are perpendicular to each other. (See page 12.) | ||
|
|
| |
White dots are seen on projected images. | • | This symptom is normal for a DLP projector and is not a malfunction. (A very small number of pixels may stay | |

| lit or out, but such symptom is not a malfunction. Pixels of 99.99% or more are effective.) | |
|
|
| |
Rainbow blur appears in projected images. | • | This is due to color breaking noise that occurs in a DLP system and is not a malfunction. | |
|
| ||
Fine streak pattern appears in projected images. | • It occurs because of interference with the screen and isn’t a product malfunction. Change the screen or read- | ||
| just the focus of the projector. | ||
|
| ||
|
| ||
| • Connect the cable’s plug with the external device’s connector firmly. | ||
Projected images (and/or audio) appear wavy and | • Keep the projector away from equipment generating interfering radio waves. | ||
• When the keystone adjustment is carried out, the image may not be displayed correctly because of the type | |||
distorted. | |||
| of input signal. This isn’t a product malfunction. In this case, readjust the keystone so that the amount of key- | ||
|
| ||
|
| stone correction is as small as possible. | |
|
| ||
Tint in projected images is incorrect. | • Check that COMPUTER INPUT in the SIGNAL menu is correctly set. (See page 17.) | ||
• Check that the cable connected to the external device isn’t broken. | |||
| |||
|
| ||
| • The color shade between several equipment may differ depending on the types of optical parts, however, it | ||

| does not indicate a malfunction. | |
• Colors may look different from those on the TV or on a display of a personal computer, however, it is due to | |||
| |||
|
| differences in the range of color reproduction, and is not a malfunction. | |

• Some images and texts appear obscured during the keystone adjustment. In such cases, use the projector | |||

|
| without applying the keystone adjustment. (See page 12.) | |
