Problem with Infocus X1 projector

the connection between the main board and the light engine could be reseated to fix this. If that doesn't work the main board is bad or the dmd on the light engine is bad.

there is an issue with the lamp ballast. probably needs to be replaced. send it in to an infocus service center. try av solutions in ny. they're really good.
i think it's www.avsolutionsny.com

if you can get a menu when you press the menu button, reset the settings to factory default. if you don't get a menu, the color wheel or the dmd chip is bad. either way, you'll have to replace the entire optical engine. and unfortunately, infocus no longer has any more in stock.

it's the fan. if it won't spin full power, it can't cool down the projector and it'll shut down. there are 2: 60mm (part # 526-0153-00) and 80mm (526-0152-00). both can be purchased from infocus or an infocus service center.

your display settings may be off, so change settings to factory reset and you may have to drop the resolution on your computer. you may also have a bad cable, so try a different cable.

the colorwheel motor does burn out after a while (from heat and dust), but as long as it spins at the right speed, you won't see a problem in the image. if it's making noise, it's going to go soon. it does need replacing. however, infocus does not sell individual parts for the x1 optical engine. you will need to replace the entire engine, which costs up to $2000. so, enjoy the last few hours with your machine and look into getting another.

Hi there

You could most probably do that yes , it's normally only the Mainboard that is different.

Hi there.

How many hours had it done? The bulb may have expired and as a safety precaution the projector will not switch on, otherwise the bulb will explode causeing further damage.

Cheers

the same functions should be able to be accessed via the remote as well as the keypad on the projector. press "menu", settings, system and de-select "rear" or "ceiling" whichever is causing the "inverted" image
