Shutting Down The Projector; Troubleshooting Your Setup - InFocus SP5000 User Manual

Shutting down the projector

The projector automatically blanks the screen after no active source is
detected for 30 minutes. This blank screen helps preserve the life of the pro-
jector. The image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or
keypad button is pressed.
Screen Save
You can make the blank screen appear after five minutes by turning on
Screen Save in the Settings>System menu. See page 29. There are six time
options for the Screen Save feature. They range from five minutes to 30 min-
utes with five minute intervals.
Power Save
The projector also has a Power Save feature that automatically turns the
lamp off after no signals are detected for 5 minutes. After 3 additional min-
utes with no signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is
received before the projector powers down, the image is displayed. You
must press the Power button to display an image after 30 minutes have
passed. When Power Save is enabled, Screen Save is disabled. See page 29.
Turning off the projector
To turn off the projector, press the Power button. You can cancel the shut-
down by pressing the Power button again within 3 seconds. The lamp turns
off and the LED blinks green for 1 minute while the fans continue to run to
cool the lamp. When the lamp has cooled, the LED lights green and the fans
stop. Unplug the power cable to completely power off the projector.

Troubleshooting your setup

If your image appears correctly on the screen, skip to the next section
(page 20). If it does not, troubleshoot the setup. The LED on top of the pro-
jector indicates the state of the projector and can help you troubleshoot.
