Projector
just projects a blue screen with the words “No Signal”.
Answer: This means one of the following:
a. VCR: You didn’t set up the VCR correctly to output to the projector.
See step #5.
b. COMPUTER: After turning the projector on, you didn’t press the “Computer” or “RGB” button
on the projector’s remote control long or hard enough (see step #3).
c. Also, check that the cable between the computer/vcr and wall outlet is securely
connected (see step #6).
d. If you think none of these is the problem, get help (see below**)
Projector
will not turn on at all.
Answer: This means one of the following:
a. Do you hear any fan noise coming out of the projector? Is the little light
panel on the projector is lit up? If yes, then it is on. The screen will take
a while to show up, so wait for a minute and go on with Step #5.
b. If it is definitely not on, try Step #3 again, pressing the button for several
seconds until you hear the projector making a little whirring sound and lights
blinking on.
c. Try aiming the remote from different angles. After 30 seconds of pressing
the button on the remote, if the projector hasn’t turned on, get help
(see below**).
