In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered * If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power man- agement software. Enabling the computer’s external display Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
  • Page 24 2. Installation and Connections NOTE: Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. Using an audio cable with a built-in resistor turns down the sound. NOTE: An image may not be displayed correctly when a Video or S-Video source is played back via a commercially available scan converter. This is because the projector will process a video signal as a computer signal at the default setting. In that case, do the following. * When an image is displayed with the lower and upper black portion of the screen or a dark image is not displayed correctly: Project an image to fill the screen and then press the AUTO PC button on the remote control or the projector cabinet.
