Viewing Lamp Usage and Other Information
Use the Info menu to view information about the display settings of
your computer and the number of hours the lamp has been used.
Press the
Menu button and highlight the Info menu.
You see the lamp usage hours and various input signal settings on the
right.
The life span of the lamp is about 5000 hours if the
Power
Consumption
setting in the Settings menu is set to Normal
(default), and 6000 hours if the Power Consumption setting is set
to
ECO. Make sure you have a spare lamp handy if the usage hours on
this menu are close to the life span of your lamp.
Solving Projector Operation Problems
The power doesn’t turn on.
■ If the projector doesn’t turn on when you press the Ppower
button, make sure the power cable is connected to the projector
and plugged into a working electrical outlet.
■ The power cable may be defective. Disconnect the cable from the
outlet and contact Epson as described on page 149.
■ Check to see if the A/V Mute slide is closed.
■ Check the status lights (see page 133).
■ Try using the Ppower button on both the projector’s control
panel and the remote control. If only the control panel Ppower
button doesn’t work, the Control Panel Lock setting may be set to
Full Lock (see page 115). If only the remote control Ppower
button doesn’t work, the projector’s remote control sensors may
have been deactivated by the Remote Receiver setting (see
page 109).
