If you’re using a video player, make sure the correct Video Signal
is selected in the Video menu (see page 70).
If you’re using a computer, press the Auto button (on the remote
control) or the
Auto/Enter button (on the projector). This
automatically resets the tracking, sync, position, and resolution.
If you’re using a computer cable longer than 6 feet (2 meters), or
an extension cable, the image quality may be reduced.
Keep your computer and video cables away from the power cord
as much as possible to prevent interference.
The video signal may be split between the computer and the
projector. If you notice a decline in the projected image quality
when the image is displayed simultaneously on your laptop and
through the projector, turn off the laptop’s LCD display.
The image is blurry.
There may be dirt or smears on the lens. Clean the lens as
described on page 90.
Adjust the focus using the Focus button.
Make sure the lens is not fogged by condensation. You may need
to wait before using the projector after moving it from a cold
environment to a warm environment.
If you’re projecting from a computer, press the Auto button (on
the remote control) or the
Auto/Enter button (on the
projector). This adjusts the tracking, sync, position, and
resolution settings.
Adjust the Sharpness setting on the Video menu (see page 64).
When you change video settings, you should be able to see the
effect on the screen immediately.
