THE LIGHT BULB MAY BE BURNED OUT

OR

HEAT TRANSISTOR IS BAD

PHOTO TRANSISTOR IS BAD

FAN MAY HAVE INTERMITTING PROBLEMS NOT ALLOWING THE MONITOR TO COME ON

Mine does the same thing and I just replaced the bulb after waiting almost 6 months and I purchased one directly from Radio Slack. It will turn on for about 10 seconds and then goes into shut down.....At three hundred dollars I can't see putting another bulb in, when this one has less than 50 hours on it.

What do you think

If you go into the setup menu you will find an option called keystone. You can adjust that up or down until it looks right to you. What it actually does is project an angle image that will look like a square image when it is projected down from your ceiling.

yes

Hi Rcasso

There could be a whole number of things that is the cause.

The most popular of which would be replacing the lamp or Ballast ( lamp's powersupply )

Could you supply me with the LED status when the unit shuts down ?

don't know much about the cinego ( resolution ect)

but on most laptops you will have a "F" button or function key near the top row.. mine is F5 that has 2 square icons to show 2 monitors, 1 black, 1 white, when your projector is hooked to your laptop, hold down the FN key probably lower left or right, and tap the F5 or f7 which ever has the 2 montiors on it, it should be a 3 position switch, 1..laptop only, 2 laptop and projector, 3rd position projector only.

that cingo is pretty low-end so you may have to goto display properties on your laptop and reduce the resolution to 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768.

if you can't get a setting that works, try the 3rd position with just the projector display on, and laptop display off, since your laptop screen is higher resolution it corrects a lot of issues.

I could not use mine either, I had to use the s video cable.

Put inot Economy mode under Management on the menu.

Make sure all the connections on the bulb are secure. Cinego wont turn on if they arent.

if you forget your password, you can always use 3308. To unlock, press NUM + 3, NUM + 3, NUM + 0, and then NUM + 8, followed by ENTER.

Menu, management, keystone.

always make all connections first !! after that : switch on the laptop, or else no detection of an external monitor/projection device is possible.
Please check also your bios settings, some can be set to force simultaneous display of external screen and lcd of the laptop.
some laptops also require ddc communication between external connected devices.
Try to use a full wired ( except pin 9) VGA cable.

succes

please start your laptop first and then your projector-----test after that---press fn key with f4 or f5 or f6 or f8 if no display---and check your input source(compter)in our case.

because it is radio shack...

probably a power supply... $600 +/-

Try this:

You have an issue with your bulb... (probably defective). I would suggest you get another one.

sounds like a lamp ballast

sounds like a flaky power supply or lamp ballast

Same problem for me with a new lamp and it shuts off after 10 seconds or so.

I have been unable to get an answer from anyone....hopefully someone here can help

Hi YOLANDAZUNIG

You will have to give me an idea of what outputs your dish decoder has got and what inputs your Projector has got.

Normally you would use the normal RCA ( Video Connection )

You'll see at the back of the decoder there will be 1 with a yellow ring around it - That's video , and another two with red and white rings respectively - for Audio.

Make sure you connect the cables according to colour from the decoder to the Projector.
