Question mark

A question mark in a box will appear if the projector can't recognize the mode of the data input source.

Even if you select a standard VESA mode on your system this can happen, because some device drivers of the graphic cards in the PC using timing parameters which differ from the parameters given out from the VESA organization.

As a result of this, the projector may detect a wrong predefined data mode or switches to a User mode, so you may see only a part of the whole picture.

To correct this situation you must select manually a data Mode in the Picture menu which should match the mode you've selected on the PC. If there is no matching mode you must select a User mode.

In a User mode you can manually select the Resolution which is normally not choosable.

It may be necessary to correct the Horizontal and Vertical Position and the Tracking and Sync values in the Picture menu. These values will be stored so the mode can be recognized the next time.

If you've accidentally misadjusted the values of a standard predefined data mode, you can reset them by selecting Reset Data Modes in the Advanced Setup menu. The settings of a User mode won't be affected by this action.

A-3. Changing Of The IR-Remote-Control Address

Changing of the IR-Remote-Control address:

You can choose one out of four different IR-RC addresses for the projector, so you can control four projectors separately without any interferences to another projector.

To change an address from the standard address #1, go to the Advanced Setup menu and choose an address of your choice under the menu item RC Address (1...4). Confirm your selection with the Enter button.

After this point you can't control the projector with the IR-RC transmitter anymore until you change the transmitter address to the same address. (Of course, you still can enter the menu system and change back the address with the Control Panel of the projector!)

To change the address of the IR-RC transmitter, please press the Mode button and an address number (buttons 1,2,3 or 4) simultaneously for 4 seconds on the IR-RC transmitter.

After this you should be able to control the projector by IR-RC again if you've chosen the same address for the projector and the IR-RC transmitter.

A-4. Resetting The Projector To Factory Default Settings

The factory default settings of the projector can be restored by pressing Enter and Mute simultaneously on the control panel when switching on the main power switch of the projector and pressing the Standby button afterwards.

The projector will start immediately and the message “Parameter factory settings restored” displayed in the starting screen will indicate the default settings are reset.

If you've had selected another menu language as english, which is the default language, you'll have to select your menu language again.
