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 [SOURCE(2)] under Information.  
If it reads “0kHz”, this means there is no signal being output fro\
m the computer. See page 112 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  projec-
tor.  When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.  
Usually, 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 previ-
ous step. Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
• Image displayed is incorrect when using a Macintosh
 When using a Macintosh with the projector, set the DIP switch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projec-
tor) according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh for the changes to take affect.
 For  setting  display  modes  other  than  those  supported  by  your  Macintosh  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  Macintosh.  After  that,  restore  the  DIP  switches  to  a  display-
able mode and then restart the Macintosh again.
NOTE:  A  Video  Adapter  cable  manufactured  by  Apple  Inc.  is  needed  for  a  PowerBook  which  does  not  have  a  mini  D-Sub 
15-pin connector.
• Mirroring on a PowerBook
* When using the projector with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be set to 1024 x 768 unless “mirroring” 
is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh computer for mirroring.
•  Folders or icons are hidden on the Macintosh screen
 Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple 
menu and arrange icons.

 Screen Size and Projection Distance
This section should be used when considering the distance to the screen and the screen size.
Available projection distances are 1.0 m/41.2 inches for 30"  screen to 18 m/718 inches for 500" screen, according 
to the chart.
Using the Chart
Example for 100" screen:
The projection distance is approximately 3.1 m (122") according to the upper chart.
The lower chart shows that the vertical distance between the projector foot and the screen top is approximately 1.5 
m  (59"). The  projection  angle  can  be  adjusted  up  to  10°.  (The  lower  chart  shows  that  the  projector  is  placed  in  a 
horizontal position)
