Projector Troubleshooting

Problem

Cause and Recommended Action

Power does not turn on.

z If the POWER/STANDBY indicator is not lit, the AC power cord is not connected

correctly. Connect the AC power cord correctly.

z If the TEMP or LIGHT indicator remains flashing or lit, it means some type of error

has occurred. See “Error Indicators and Warning Messages” (page 68).

No image is projected or
the projected image is
abnormal.

z The computer or video device connected to the projector is not turned on or it is

not outputting a video signal. Make sure the connected computer or video device
is turned on, and perform the required operation on it to output a video signal.

z The correct output source is not selected on the projector. On the projector, select

the correct input source that corresponds to the connected device.

z Images may not project correctly when you have the component output terminal of

a video device connected to the COMPUTER terminal of the projector. With an
XJ-A Series projector, connect the video device to the AV terminal. For an XJ-M
Series projector, connect to the VIDEO or S-VIDEO terminal.

Image color or display is
very abnormal.

The wrong option (“Component” or “RGB”) may be selected for the “Input Settings J
COMPUTER Terminal” setting on the setup menu. The image will not be projected
correctly if “Component” is selected while the projector’s COMPUTER terminal is
connected to the RGB output terminal of a computer, or if “RGB” is selected while the
projector’s COMPUTER terminal is connected to the component video output
terminal of a video device. On the setup menu, select “Auto” for the “Input Settings J
COMPUTER Terminal” setting. See page 59.

other device is not outputting audio. Adjust the volume level of the connected
device.

projector’s AV terminal (XJ-A Series) or AUDIO IN terminal (XJ-M Series). Check
the connection. See “Connecting Projector Cables” (page 11).

z When the input source is HDMI, File Viewer, Wireless, Network or USB Display,

“Line” may be selected for the “Option Settings 2 J Audio Out” setting on the
setup menu. Change the “Audio Out” setting to “Speaker”. See page 60.
