Other Signal Error Messages
In addition to the common "Bad Sync" and “No Signal” errors, you may encounter a
signal error message indicating that HSYNC and/or VSYNC are either too fast or too
slow. When such a message appears, check the frequencies shown in the Status menu.
If they are correct, the projector does not recognize the signal. On some PCs you may
be able to change the settings to generate a compatible signal. If the frequencies
shown in the Status menu are incorrect, check the cabling to see where the problem
might originate.
When the projector encounters a system malfunction, either a System Warning
message or a System Error message may appear. Both types of messages are
accompanied by a numerical error code on the status LED display. A system
malfunction can be cleared with
Exi t Exi t
from presentation level, but may indicate
the need for service by a qualified service technician.
NOTE: System messages appear on-screen only if Display Error Messages has been
set to “Screen” or “All”.
System Warnings
A system warning indicates that a system malfunction has been detected (see Status
LED Codes, below). A system warning message replaces any input signal message
and disappears when the input signal status changes. While the projector will remain
operational, the message indicates the presence of a potentially serious problem that
should be investigated. You can press
Exi t Exi t
to remove the message, but for best
results you should reset the projector—power the projector down and up again with
the
(power) key.
System Errors
A system error message indicates that a serious malfunction has been detected and
must be investigated as soon as possible (see Status LED Codes, below). The projector
will no longer operate and must be reset—power the projector down and up again
with the
(power) key.
The Status LED Codes
If the status code display on the back of the projector shows one of the following
values, you have encountered a likely system error requiring the attention of a
qualified service technician (see System Warnings and System Errors, above).
Acknowledge and clear the error with
Exi t Exi t
from presentation level, or try
resetting the projector by powering it off and on again, cooling when necessary.
Consult Table 3.5 and contact your dealer if the problem persists.
The specific code number identifies the source of the error detected, and is
particularly useful in cases where the projector is far away. For example, the code
“27” means the lamp could not be turned on. Error codes for this projector are listed in
Table 3.5 below.
