    							BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
    The following is a basic troubleshooting guide that can assist you in resolving typical problems may result in normal 
    operation. If you have encountered problems that are not listed in this guide, please contact your Runco dealer for assistance.
    PROBLEMPOSSIBLE CAUSE   SOLUTION
    The Projector does not turn on after 
    initial installation. The Power LED on 
    the front of the Controller stays red 
    after the power button is pressed.
    · The DVI cable is not connected 
    between the Controller and Projector, 
    or is connected improperly.
    · The projector is not plugged in, or 
    its AC outlet is not active. Look at its 
    power LED and see if it is illuminated.
    · Ensure it is firmly plugged into both 
    the Controller and the Projector.
    · Verify that the AC outlet is active, or 
    that the Projector is plugged in.
    The Projector and Controller are both 
    on, but there is no video image on-
    screen.
    · The Controller is on the wrong source.
    · The Controller is on the correct 
    source, but the source itself is off.
    · Press MENU on the Projector’s 
    remote, and look to see which source is 
    active (the arrow will be pointing to the 
    active source). Select the correct source 
    as appropriate.
    · Turn on the source. It is recommended 
    that all sources be turned on first 
    BEFORE the VX-2c.
    The Projector is producing a ‘split 
    screen’ or an otherwise scrambled 
    image.
    · A progressive scan DVD is plugged 
    into Component input rather than the 
    RGB/Component input.
    · Only NTSC/PAL can be input to the 
    Component input. Progressive scan 
    must go into RGB/Component.
    The image appears too bright, and there 
    is a loss of definition in the brightest 
    areas of the image.
    · Contrast is set too high.
    · The DVD player is set for a high-level 
    output.
    · The video signal has not been 
    terminated properly somewhere in the 
    system.
    · Turn down the CONTRAST level on 
    the Controller. 
    · Set the DVD player for a nominal 
    output (no boost or gain).
    · Ensure all video signals are 
    terminated in 75 Ohms.
    The image appears too ‘washed out’, or 
    the darkest areas of the image appear 
    too bright.
    · Brightness is set too high.
    · The DVD player may be set for too 
    high of a brightness level.
    · Turn down the BRIGHTNESS level 
    on the Controller. If possible, use a 
    PLUGE pattern to set the brightness 
    level properly.
    · Set the DVD player for a nominal 
    output (no boost or gain).
    The colors of the image appear 
    abnormal
    · The Red, Green and/or Blue outputs 
    of the Controller or inputs to the 
    Projector are reversed.
    · The Pr and Pb inputs on the 
    Component input on the Controller are 
    reversed
    · Check the cable connections on 
    the back of the Controller or on the 
    Projector.
    The Projector will not turn back on 
    after it was powered-down, or the 
    image disappears during operation.
    · The Projector will not turn on for two 
    minutes after power-down to protect its 
    bulb.
    · The bulb has failed
    · Wait two minutes until the LED on the 
    front of the Controller turns red.
