Troubleshooting suggestions
61
• For a computer connection, set the display resolution as the computer to the same
resolution as the projector, 800 × 600 or 1024 × 768 (see “Specifications” on
page 65). If the computer has multiple monitors, adjust the resolution of the monitor
assigned to the projector.
• For a computer connected to the S-video port, the picture cannot be as high resolution
as what you see on the computer display.
If an upside-down or reversed image is displayed:
• The projector has been set to the wrong position setting. Press enter, go to Setup >
Advanced Setup > Projector position, and select the correct setting.
If the image is too small or too large:
• Adjust the zoom ring on top of the projector.
• Move the projector closer to or farther from the screen.
• On the projector or remote control, press the picture mode
button one or more times
to see if one of the picture modes makes the image the correct size.
• Press enter, go to Picture > Customize picture mode > Stretch. Try the different settings.
• If the source device sends wide-screen output, press enter, go to Input, and try setting
Widescreen input to Yes. Otherwise, set it to No.
If the image has slanted sides:
• As much as possible, reposition the projector so that it is centered on the screen and
below the bottom or above the top of the screen.
• On the projector, press the keystone button until the sides are vertical.
If the image is stretched:
• On the projector or remote control, press the picture mode
button one or more times
to see if one of the picture modes makes the image the correct size.
• Press enter, go to Picture > Customize picture mode > Stretch. Try the different settings.
• If the source device sends wide-screen output, press enter, go to Input, and try setting
Widescreen input to Yes. Otherwise, set it to No.
If the projected colors seem slightly wrong:
• See “Adjusting the picture for best color” on page 36.
• Press enter, go to Help > Diagnostics, and run the color test.
If the projected colors seem completely wrong:
• Be sure the pins on the cable connectors are not bent or broken.
• Press enter, go to Picture > Color settings > Color space. Try the different settings.
