124 8. Appendix If there is no picture, or the picture is not displayed correctly. • Power on process for the projector and the PC. Be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode and before turning on the power to the notebook PC. In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up. NOTE: You can check the horizontal frequency of the current signal in the projector’s menu under Information. If it reads “0kHz”, this means there is no signal being output from the computer. (→ page 97 or go to next step) • Enabling the computer’s external display. Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector. When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usu- ally, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through external display selections. • Non-standard signal output from the computer If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step. Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information. • Image displayed is incorrect when using a Mac When using a Mac with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector) ac- cording to your resolution. After setting, restart your Mac for the changes to take affect. For setting display modes other than those supported by your Mac and the projector, changing the DIP switch on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch to the 13" fixed mode and then restart your Mac. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode and then restart the Mac again. NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Inc. is needed for a MacBook which does not have a mini D-Sub 15-pin connector. • Mirroring on a MacBook * When using the projector with a MacBook, output may not be set to 1024 × 768 unless “mirroring” is off on your MacBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Mac computer for mirroring. • Folders or icons are hidden on the Mac screen Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple menu and arrange icons.

HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not functioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).
