Common Problems and Solutions
These guidelines provide tips to deal with problems you may encounter wh\
ile using the projector. If
the problem remains unsolved, contact your dealer for assistance.
Often after time spent troubleshooting, the problem is traced to somethi\
ng as simple as a loose
connection. Check the following before proceeding to the problem-specific solutions.
 ¾Use some other electrical device to confirm that the electrical outlet is working.
 ¾Ensure the projector is turned on.
 ¾Ensure all connections are securely attached.
 ¾Ensure the attached device is turned on.
 ¾Ensure a connected PC is not in suspending mode.
 ¾Ensure a connected notebook computer is configured for an external display.  
(This is usually done by pressing an Fn-key combination on the notebook\
.)
Tips for Troubleshooting
• In each problem-specific section, try the steps in the order suggested. This may help you to solve the 
problem more quickly.
• Try to pin point the problem and thus avoid replacing non-defective parts\
. For example, if you replace 
batteries and the problem remains, put the original batteries back and g\
o to the next step.
• Keep a record of the steps you take when troubleshooting: The information may be useful when calling 
for technical support or for passing on to service personnel.

HDMI Q & A
Q. What is the difference between a “Standard” HDMI cable and a “High-Speed” H\
DMI 
cable?
Recently, HDMI Licensing, LLC announced that cables would be tested as Standard \
or High- Speed 
cables.
• Standard (or “category 1”) HDMI cables have been tested to perfo\
rm at speeds of 75Mhz or up to 
2.25Gbps, which is the equivalent of a 720p/1080i signal.
• High Speed (or “category 2”) HDMI cables have been tested to per\
form at speeds of 340Mhz or up to 
10.2Gbps, which is the highest bandwidth currently available over an HDM\
I cable and can successfully 
handle 1080p signals including those at increased color depths and/or in\
creased refresh rates from the 
Source. High-Speed cables are also able to accommodate higher resolution\
 displays, such as WQXGA 
cinema monitors (resolution of 2560 x 1600).
Q. How do I run HDMI cables longer than 10 meters?
There are many HDMI Adopters working on HDMI solutions that extend a cable’s effective distance from 
the typical 10 meter range to much longer lengths. These companies manufacture a variety of solutions 
that include active cables (active electronics built into cables that b\
oost and extend the cable’s signal), 
repeaters, amplifiers as well as CAT5/6 and fiber solutions.
Q. How can I tell if a cable is an HDMI certified cable?
All HDMI products are required to be certified by the manufacturer as part of the HDMI Compliance Test 
Specification. However, there may be instances where cables bearing the HDMI logo are available but 
have not been properly tested. HDMI Licensing, LLC actively investigates\
 these instances to ensure that 
the HDMI trademark is properly used in the market. We recommend that consumers buy their cables from 
a reputable source and a company that is trusted.
