I have hung my projector upside down its model is sony projector vpl cs20, how to get the picture up right now while the projector is hanging with top towrds the floor?

Go into the "utilities" menu, there should be a setting there. But, since lamp life is so variable, it really doesn't mean much. Just remember what the value was when you changed the lamp and subtract that from the new total to get your new lamp's run-time.

Your projector is set in ceiling mode. This is for when it hung upside down from the roof. Without a make and model it's not possible to give exact instructions but if you search through the on screen menus and either find "factory default reset" or the image/picture mode section you will be able to reset it.

This projector has a very short throw distance of approx. 7 1/2 feet to 9 1/2 feet. Anything over or under that distance will be out of focus.

You should turn on the VP-CS20 with the button on projector, NOT THE REMOTE or the instructions wont work.

Using the remote commander while the unit is powered up, press "ENTER", "ENTER", "LEFT"

and "ENTER" in sequence. A prompt will appear on the screen asking if you wish to enter the factory mode.

Press the "UP" key on the remote and the unit is now in service mode. This sequence will add two new groups

to the customer setup menu. Press the "MENU" button to view.

Whenever the lamp is replaced, the lamp timer should be reset. With the unit in the "factory" mode, press

"RESET", "LEFT", "RIGHT" and "ENTER" on the remote commander. Verify the lamp hours have been reset to zero in the service menu.

Hope it helps,

i have color bands running through the picture

There should be a menu option for orientation. The selection may be for ceiling vs standard. You have the unit set for ceiling mount.

Dan

go into the menu using either your remote or the button on the projector itself. At the top are several options i.e. "picture" scr-adj. Click over to the right ONCE to "SCR-ADJ" this stands for source adjust. Then look for something called like PRJ mode (projection mode) This tells the projector which direction to display the image so that incase you want to hang it from the ceiling upside down you can. Click down to that menu option. You will then have to click over to the right in order to see your options. If you are using it hanging on a ceiling you want it to say "ceiling front" if it is merely sitting on a cart or a shelf just put it on "front".

Good luck.

Hi cajun51man

If you go into the User Menu of the Projector look for a subfolder that reads either Flip Image or Mirror.

Scroll down to it and scroll left or right - this will switch between the image features.

Hi, I am not familiar with that model, But usually if you go into the settings menu you will see settings for the display which may be under "Display" "Rotate" "Keystone" "Flip" That model is made to be mounted upside down so somewhere in the menu there will be a setting similar to those I mentioned that will flip the image.

Hope that helps, Sorry I couldn't be more specific.
