You cannot turn on the projector.
If you’re trying to turn on the projector using the remote control,
the remote control may be switched off (there’s an on/off switch
on its side) or low on battery power. Try pressing the P
Power
button on the projector instead.
Make sure the power cord is properly connected, then wait for
the P power light to turn orange before pressing the P
Power
button.
The P power light flashes green for about a minute as the
projector warms up, and then it remains green during normal
operation. (If the lights display a different pattern, see page 100.)
The projector is powered on, but not projecting an image.
Press the A/V Mute button on the remote control to make sure
the picture has not been turned off temporarily.
The projector may be in sleep mode. If the P power light is
orange, press the P
Power button to turn on the projector.
The attached computer may be in sleep mode or displaying a
black screen saver. Try pressing a key on the computer.
If you just replaced the lamp, make sure the lamp is fully inserted
and the cover securely reattached, or the projector won’t come on.
If you just turned off the projector, it may still be cooling down.
Wait until the power light stops flashing and remains orange; then
press the P
Power button to turn the projector back on.
