Viewing Lamp Usage and Other Information
Use the Info menu to view information about the display settings of
your computer and the number of hours the lamp has been used.
Press the
Menu button and highlight the Info menu.
You see the lamp usage hours and various input signal settings on the
right.
The life span of the lamp is about 2000 hours if the
Brightness
Control
setting in the Setting menu is set to High (default), and
3000 hours if the
Brightness Control setting is set to Low. Make
sure you have a spare lamp handy if the usage hours on this menu
are close to the life span of your lamp.
Solving Projector Operation Problems
The power doesn’t turn on.
If the projector doesn’t turn on when you press the PPower
button, make sure the power cable is connected to the projector
and plugged into a working electrical outlet.
The power cable may be defective. Disconnect the cable from the
outlet and contact Epson as described on page 76.
Check to see if the A/V Mute Slide is closed.
The buttons on the projector don’t work.
If the Operation Lock function has been enabled, you can’t use the
buttons on the projector. Try using the remote control instead. See
page 55 for information about the Operation Lock function.

The information displayed
depends on the input signal
currently selected.
