TROUBLESHOOTING 
Common problems and solutions 
These guidelines provide tips to deal with problems you may encounter while using the projector. If 
the problem remains unsolved, contact your dealer for assistance. 
Often after time spent troubleshooting, the problem is traced to something as simple as a loose 
connection. Check the following before proceeding to the problem-specific solutions. 
 Use some other electrical device to confirm that the electrical outlet is working. 
 Ensure the projector is turned on. 
 Ensure all connections are securely attached.  
 Ensure the attached device is turned on. 
 Ensure a connected PC is not in suspending mode. 
 Ensure a connected notebook computer is configured for an external display. 
(This is usually done by pressing an Fn-key combination on the notebook.) 
Tips for Troubleshooting 
In each problem-specific section, try the steps in the order suggested. This may help you to solve the 
problem more quickly. 
Try to pin point the problem and thus avoid replacing non-defective parts.  
For example, if you replace batteries and the problem remains, put the original batteries back and go 
to the next step.  
Keep a record of the steps you take when troubleshooting: The information may be useful when 
calling for technical support or for passing on to service personnel.

HDMI Q & A 
Q. What is the difference between a “Standard” HDMI cable and a “High-Speed” HDMI 
cable? 
Recently, HDMI Licensing, LLC announced that cables would be tested as Standard or High-
Speed cables.  
˙Standard (or “category 1”) HDMI cables have been tested to perform at speeds of 75Mhz or 
up to 2.25Gbps, which is the equivalent of a 720p/1080i signal.  
˙High Speed (or “category 2”) HDMI cables have been tested to perform at speeds of 340Mhz 
or up to 10.2Gbps, which is the highest bandwidth currently available over an HDMI cable 
and can successfully handle 1080p signals including those at increased color depths and/or 
increased refresh rates from the Source. High-Speed cables are also able to accommodate 
higher resolution displays, such as WQXGA cinema monitors (resolution of 2560 x 1600). 
 
Q. How do I run HDMI cables longer than 10 meters? 
There are many HDMI Adopters working on HDMI solutions that extend a cable’s effective 
distance from the typical 10 meter range to much longer lengths. These companies 
manufacture a variety of solutions that include active cables (active electronics built into 
cables that boost and extend the cable’s signal), repeaters, amplifiers as well as CAT5/6 and 
fiber solutions. 
 
Q. How can I tell if a cable is an HDMI certified cable? 
All HDMI products are required to be certified by the manufacturer as part of the HDMI 
Compliance Test Specification. However, there may be instances where cables bearing the 
HDMI logo are available but have not been properly tested. HDMI Licensing, LLC actively 
investigates these instances to ensure that the HDMI trademark is properly used in the 
market. We recommend that consumers buy their cables from a reputable source and a 
company that is trusted.
