Adjusting the clock frequency (PICTURE ADJ) and clock phase (FINE 
PICTURE) manually 
When AUTO PICTURE is set to ON, the clock frequency and clock phase will be adjusted 
automatically.  However, if you need any manual adjustment for these two items, you first need 
to set AUTO PICTURE to OFF as indicated in the following steps.  Adjust the clock 
frequency to eliminate any vertical banding, then clock phase to reduce any video noise, dot 
interference, or cross talk.  (When clock phase is not matched evidently, the image appears to be 
shimmering.) 
1. Setting the input source to RGB 
 Select the input source RGB (see page 13)

Troubleshooting 
This section helps you resolve problems while setting up or using your projector. 
 
Common Problems & Solutions 
Problem Check These Items 
Does not turn on Check that the cord is plugged in and that the power 
switch on the back panel is on.  (See page 13.) 
 
Check the status light to see if the projector has 
overheated or the lamp usage exceeds 1100 hours.  
(See pages 29 and 30.) 
No picture Use the menu icons to select your source (Video, S-
Video, or RGB).  (See page 13.) 
 
Ensure your cables are connected properly.  (See 
pages 6 to 11.) 
 
Adjust the brightness and contrast. (See page 24.) 
 
Remove the lens cap.  
 
Is the STATUS indicator blinking? (See page 32.) 
Image isn’t square to the screen Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the 
screen. 
Picture is blurred Adjust the focus.  (See page 14.) 
 
Reposition the projector to improve its angle to the 
screen.  
 
Ensure that the distance between the projector and 
screen is within the adjustment range of the lens.  
(See pages 8.) 
Remote control does not work Install new batteries. Low batteries may activate the 
laser but be insufficient to generate IR commands. 
 
Make sure there are no obstacles between you and 
the projector. 
 
Stand within 13 feet (4m) of the projector.  
The STATUS indicator is lit or blinking See the Status Light message chart on the next page. 
Cross color in RGB mode If “Auto Picture” is off, turn it on.  If “Auto Picture” 
is on, turn it off and balance the image with the 
Picture Adjustment icon and Fine Picture Adjustment 
icon.  (See page 26.)

ventilation hole on the bottom of the projector.  If any 
holes are blocked, remove whatever is blocking them. 
 
The temperature protector has been triggered.  If you 
switch the main Power switch Off, then immediately 
switch it On again; sometimes the power does not 
come on.  If this happens, wait one minute, and then 
switch the power On again.

The projector was turned off and back on too quickly.  
Turn off the projector, wait one minute, then turn the 
projector back on.  Or the lamp is burnt out. 
 
Replacing the lamp housing 
After the lamp has been operating for 1000 hours or longer, the STATUS indicator on the control 
panel will light and “LAMP USAGE” icon, which shows hours of total lamp use, will be 
displayed on the screen.  When this happen, turn off the unit and replace the lamp housing with 
new one.  The unit will not be go on after 1100 hours.  (It will go off\
 if it is in use.) 
 
                                          
   ***CAUTION*** 
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used.  It will be 
extremely hot.  Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before handling. 
• DO NOT LOOSEN ANY SCREWS except for those mentioned in the instructions \
below.  There is danger of electric shock.

							Lamp housing replacement procedure 
1. Switch off the main power and unplug the power cord.  
2. Wait at least one hour for the lamp to cool. 
3. Turn the unit upside down carefully. 
4. Loosen the lamp cover securing screw. 
5. Slide the lamp cover in the direction of the arrow and  
    remove it. 
 
CAUTION: Do not use a lamp housing other than 
the Knoll replacement lamp housing. Order this from 
your Knoll dealer using your projector’s model 
number (see “Note” below). 
 
6. Loosen the three lamp housing securing screws.  (This 
    projector has a safety switch.) 
7. Hold the handle then pull the lamp housing upward to   
    remove it. 
8. Install the new lamp housing. 
9. Secure the lamp housing with the three screws. 
10. Replace and secure the lamp cover with the securing 
      screw. 
11. Return the unit to the normal position, connect the  
       power cord, and turn on the unit. 
12. Reset the lamp time. Select the lamp usage time menu, 
       then press the POWER ON button on the remote 
       control and hold it down for at least ten seconds.   
       (See page 29.) 
 
Note: 
When the lamp 
usage time 
reaches 1100 
hours, it 
becomes 
impossible to 
switch on the 
power and 
menus are not 
displayed.  In this case, press the remote control POWER 
OFF button for at least 10 seconds in the standby mode.  It is 
possible to confirm whether it has been reset or not by 
checking whether the STATUS indicator is extinguished (See 
page 29). 
Obtain a replacement lamp from your dealer where the 
projector was purchased.  When ordering a replacement 
lamp, specify the correct special replacement lamp – model 
name UP-280DC (Product code 28-685).
