68 Solving Problems
The colors of the image are not right.
■ The color balance may be incorrect. If you’re displaying a
computer image, use the
Gamma option in the projector’s Video
menu to adjust the balance of red, green, and blue. If you’re
displaying video, adjust the
Color , Tint , and Gamma settings on
the Video menu. Also try adjusting the Color Setting option in
the Advanced menu.
■ Check your computer display settings to correct the color balance.
There is no sound.
■ Try turning up the volume. Hold down the Shift button and
press the right side of the Volume button (control panel) or press
the right side of the Volume button (remote control).
■ Make sure the A/V Mute button is not enabled.
■ If you’re using a VCR or other video source, make sure the
volume is not turned all the way down or muted. Also, make sure
the cables are connected correctly, as described in Chapter 2.
■ If your presentation includes computer audio, make sure the
volume control on your computer is not turned all the way down
or muted. Make sure the audio cable is securely connected to both
the projector and your computer’s
headphone jack or
audio out jack. See page 35.
■ Make sure the Windows volume controls on your computer are
not turned all the way down or set to Mute. You may be able to
check this by right-clicking the sound icon on your Windows
desktop.
■ The wrong source may be selected. Press the Comp/Easy-MP or
Video button on the control panel—or the Comp1 ,
Comp2/YCbCr , Easy-MP , or Video button on the remote
control—to select the proper source. Allow a few seconds for the
projector to sync up after pressing the button.
