Solutions to Common Problems
Problem: Nothing on projection screen
Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to a func-
tional AC electrical outlet. Make sure that the power cord is
also properly connected to the projector.
If the projector is plugged into a power strip, make sure the
power strip is turned on.
Make sure you have removed the lens cap from the projection
lens at the front of the projector.
Make sure the projector is switched on.
Check the projector’s lamp to ensure that it is securely con-
nected in the lamp module. See “Replacing the Projection
Lamp” on page 37.
Make sure that the CablePro and the cables do not have any
bent pins. Check the power cord for bent pins also.
Problem: Color or text not being projected
You might need to adjust the brightness up or down until the
text is visible. Refer to “Brightness + or -” on page 22 for more
information.
Verify that the appropriate input source is selected. See “Com-
puter” on page 22 or “Video” on page 23.
Problem: The screen resolution is not right
Make sure the computer’s graphics card is set for a resolution
of no greater than 1280x1024.
Problem: Image isn’t centered on the screen
Reposition the image. Refer to “Horiz. Position” on page 30
and “Vert. Position” on page 30.
If you’re using an extension cable between the CablePro and
the projector, make sure it’s Boxlight-approved.
