Frequently Asked Questions - BS274 LG

How do I replace the projection lamp?
Turn off and unplug the projector at least 30 minutes before replacing. Loosen the captive screw on the lamp compartment cover, remove the cover, unscrew the three screws from the lamp module, lift the handle, disconnect the connector, and pull out the module. Install the new module in reverse order. After replacement, reset the lamp hour counter via Installation II > Advanced > Lamp Hour Reset.
How do I clean the lens?
Turn off and unplug the projector at least 30 minutes before cleaning. Apply a small amount of optic lens cleaner to a clean, soft cloth (do not apply directly to the lens). Gently wipe the lens in a circular motion. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
How do I set an access password (security lock)?
Press MENU, navigate to Installation I > Advanced > Security Lock, and set to On. A dialog box appears. Use the arrow buttons (▲▼◀▶) to enter a password (at least five presses). Confirm the password. When enabled, the password will be required each time the projector is powered on.
How do I adjust keystone correction?
Press the Keystone button on the remote control or press ▲ (KEYSTONE) on the projector and use ◀ or ▶ to correct trapezoid distortion (wider top or bottom). The keystone value can also be adjusted in the OSD under Installation I > Keystone.
How do I connect my computer to the projector?
Use the supplied RGB cable to connect your computer's VGA output to the RGB IN port on the projector. For audio, connect a mini-jack cable from the computer to the AUDIO IN port. Turn on the projector and press the SOURCE button to select RGB input. You may need to configure the computer for external display (e.g., Fn + F4 on many laptops).
What do the LED error codes mean?
The projector has three LEDs: POWER (green), LAMP (flashing), and OVER TEMP (orange). Blinking patterns indicate errors. For example, POWER LED blinks 4 times: thermal break error; LAMP LED blinks 5 times: lamp error; OVER TEMP on: over temperature. See the Troubleshooting section in the manual for a full list.
How do I reset the lamp hour counter?
After replacing the lamp, press MENU, go to Installation II > Advanced > Lamp Hour Reset. Press ▶ or Enter, then press the arrow buttons (▲▼◀▶) as instructed to reset the counter to zero.
How do I enable 3D mode?
Press MENU, navigate to Installation II > Advanced > 3D, and set to On. You can also adjust the 3D Inverter (R/L or L/R). Use a DLP Link type goggle. Supported resolutions for 3D: SVGA 800x600 @120Hz and XGA 1024x768 @120Hz (PC input). Ensure your source outputs a compatible 3D signal.
How do I change the OSD language?
Press MENU, use ◀▶ to go to Installation I. Highlight Language (first item), then use ◀▶ to scroll through available languages. Press MENU twice to exit. Default is English.
Why is there no image on the screen?
Check that the projector is powered on (green POWER LED), the lens cap is removed, and the correct input source is selected (press SOURCE). Ensure all cables are securely connected. If using a laptop, verify it is set to external display mode (e.g., Fn + F4). Test the power outlet with another device. If the issue persists, refer to the Troubleshooting section.

Remote Control Operating Range

The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is not necessary to point the remote directly at the projector. Provided you are not holding the remote perpendicular to the sides or the rear of the projector, the remote will function well within a radius of about 7 meters (23 feet) and 15 degrees above or below the projector level. If the projector does not respond to the remote control, move a little closer.

Projector and Remote Control Buttons

The projector can be operated using the remote control or the buttons on the top of the projector. All operations can be carried out with the remote control; however, the buttons on the projector are limited in use. The following illustration shows the corresponding buttons on the remote control and on the projector.

  3. Any object places between goggle and 3D video image may affect the image.
  4. 3D video only supports DLP link type goggle.
  5. Performance may differ among brands of goggles.

Caution:

when viewing 3D video:

  1. When viewing 3D video, watch the projector within the effective viewing angle and distance. If you exceed the viewing angle or distance, you may not be able to view 3D video (Recommended distance: 1.5m\~5m).
  2. If you watch the 3D video too closely for a long period of time, it may strain your eyes.
  3. Watching the screen with the 3D video glasses for a long period of time can cause drowsiness or fatigue to your eyes.
  4. Pregnant woman, senior, person with heart problem or frequent drowsiness may wish to refrain from watching 3D video. 3D video can cause an elevated heart rate.
  5. Some 3D video may cause you to duck or dodge the image in the video. Do not watch 3D video near fragile object or any objects that can be knocked over easily.
  6. Special care is required for children watching the 3D video.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Common problems and solutions

These guidelines provide tips to deal with problems you may encounter while using the projector. If the problem remains unsolved, contact your dealer for assistance.

Often after time spent troubleshooting, the problem is traced to something as simple as a loose connection. Check the following before proceeding to the problem-specific solutions.

  • Use some other electrical device to confirm that the electrical outlet is working.
  • Ensure the projector is turned on.
  • Ensure all connections are securely attached.
  • Ensure the attached device is turned on.
  • Ensure a connected PC is not in suspending mode.
  • Ensure a connected notebook computer is configured for an external display. (This is usually done by pressing an Fn-key combination on the notebook.)

Tips for Troubleshooting

In each problem-specific section, try the steps in the order suggested. This may help you to solve the problem more quickly.

Try to pin point the problem and thus avoid replacing non-defective parts.

For example, if you replace batteries and the problem remains, put the original batteries back and go to the next step.

Keep a record of the steps you take when troubleshooting: The information may be useful when calling for technical support or for passing on to service personnel.
