the logo or blank screen is 
projected.¥ Check that you have activated the video 
output port on the laptop computer. The 
logo will only appear if there is no signal 
present on the computer or video input. See 
ÒActivating the Laptop External Video 
PortÓ on page 32.
¥ Activate the external port on Macintosh 
computers by opening the Macintosh Con-
trol Panel and selecting Video Mirroring. 
See ÒMacintosh PowerBook Series 160, 165, 
180, 185, 500, 520, 540Ó on page 31.

When viewing text on the 
projected image, some of the 
characters seem darker or 
thicker than others.The frequency of the projector does not match 
the frequency of the computer. 
1 Press the Menu button on the remote con-
trol or the keypad on the projector. 
2 Select Picture from the menu.
3 Select Frequency from the menu. 
4 Use the left and right direction keys on the 
remote control or on the projector keypad 
to adjust the frequency up or down until all 
of the text characters are the same.
The image is noisy in video 
mode.Use a continuity tester to check for poor or 
open ground on the video cable.
The image lacks red, blue, or 
green color.Check the contrast adjustment. Also, check 
the VGA cable for broken or bent pins.
The bottom of the projected 
image is straight but the top 
is crooked.Align the projector so that it directly faces the 
screen. See ÒLeveling the ImageÓ on page 13.
The remote control does not 
work correctly.Check that the IR (infrared) window on the 
front of the projector is not blocked. Check 
that the red power LED is energized when any 
button is pushed. If not, check the batteries in 
the remote control.
The projected image is rolling 
vertically or horizontally.Check for broken or bent pins on the VGA 
cable. The problem may also be related to the 
computer refresh rate. The projector is able to 
synchronize with a refresh rate between 
55.378 and 85Hz. Any refresh rate outside 
these limits will cause problems with the pro-
jected image. Check the refresh rate of the 
computer and adjust it if necessary. Problem Solution
