Section 5: Troubleshooting

 

 

 

2.

The video input may not be terminated. Make sure the video input is terminated

 

 

 

 

 

(75 Ω). If it is the last connection in a loop-through chain, the video input should

 

 

 

 

 

be terminated at the last source input only.

 

 

 

3.

The input signal and/or signal cables carrying the input signal may be of poor

 

 

 

 

 

quality.

 

 

 

4.

If the distance between the input source device and the projector is greater than 25

 

 

 

 

 

feet, signal amplification/conditioning may be required.

 

 

 

5.

If the source is a VCR or off-air broadcast, detail may be set too high.

 

 

 

 

For more information on lamp operation modes and auto-switching, refer to Section 3

Projector Delayed on

f 1.

The projector enforces a 90 second delay between powering down and up again,

 

 

Power Up

 

 

because a hot lamp is more difficult to ignite. NOTE: It can potentially take 2

 

 

 

 

 

minutes to cool a lamp sufficiently enough before re-striking it.

 

Powered Up, But No

f 1.

It takes 25 seconds for the projector to power up and strike a lamp. One of the

 

 

Light On The Wall

 

 

inherent properties of the lamp is that it may not strike with the first attempt. The

 

 

 

 

 

projector will wait 90 seconds before trying to strike the lamp again. It will try a

 

 

 

 

 

total of three times (4.5 minutes total) before it declares the lamp as “Failed to

 

 

 

 

 

Strike” – check LAMP STATUS.

 

 

 

2.

Make sure the shutter is OPEN.

Lamp Operation Mode

f 1.

Did you request a lamp operation mode change during power up? The projector

 

 

Didn’t Change

 

 

will ignore any commands sent during initialization. Wait for “ON” to appear in

 

 

 

 

 

the LED status display window before entering a command.

 

 

 

2.

Check the status of the lamp. The lamp operation mode will not change if there is

 

 

 

 

 

a lamp with an associated failure or lamp is not installed.

 

 

 

3.

Make sure you have allowed enough time for the projector to turn a lamp on. This

 

 

 

 

 

can take up to 4.5 minutes, as the projector will strike a lamp up to 3 times

 

 

 

 

 

waiting 90 seconds in between each attempt. Only after a lamp is successfully

 

 

 

 

 

turned on will the lamp operation mode change.

 

 

 

 

1.

Make sure the Ethernet settings are valid for your site—all network devices

 

 

 

 

5.3

Ethernet

 

 

 

should have the same subnet mask and unique IP addresses.

 

 

 

2.

Make sure to save any address change, and re-boot to implement.

 

 

 

3.

If you still have trouble establishing communications with a projector added to an

 

 

 

 

 

existing Ethernet network, the projector’s IP address is likely in conflict with

 

 

 

 

 

another address already in use. Contact your network administrator.
