Indicates the operating status.
Problem Solving f [t] Power indicator lights red Abnormal : Lit Status Cause : Flashing: : Off Remedy or Status Red Internal Error Stop using the projector, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet, and contact your local dealer or the nearest address provided in the Support and Service Guide.
Problem Solving f m o Indicator is lit or flashing orange Warning : Lit Status Red Orange High Temp Warning Orange q Cause Replace Lamp : Flashing : Off : Varies according to the projector status Remedy or Status (This is not an abnormality. However, if the temperature rises too high again, projection stops automatically.) • Check that the air filter and air exhaust vent are clear, and that the projector is not positioned against a wall. • If the air filter is clogged, clean or replace it.
Problem Solving When the Indicators Provide No Help If any of the following problems occur and the indicators do not offer a solution, refer to the pages given for each problem. Problems when projection starts f Power does not turn on s p.75 Problems relating to images f No images appear s p.71 Projection does not start, the projection area is completely black, the projection area is completely blue, and so on. f Moving images are not displayed s p.
Problem Solving f Problems relating to images f No images appear Check Remedy Did you press the [t] button? Press the [t] button to turn the power on. Are the indicators switched off? The power cable is not connected correctly or power is not being supplied normally. Connect the projector's power cable correctly. s Quick Start Guide Check that your electrical outlet or power source is functioning correctly. Is A/V Mute active? Press the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control to cancel A/V Mute.
Problem Solving f The message "Not supported." is displayed. Check Is the image signal format setting correct?

Glossary 127 This section explains easily terms that are used with the projector and difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other commercially available publications. AMX Device Discovery AMX Device Discovery is a technology developed by AMX to facilitate AMX control systems for easy operation of the target equipment. Epson have implemented this protocol technology, and have provided a setting to enable the protocol function (ON).
Glossary Refresh rate The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time. Because of this, the image must be scanned many times per second to refresh the light-emitting element. The number of refresh operations per second is called the Refresh rate and is expressed in hertz (Hz).
