recommendations in the order listed. If replacing a module is recommended and the symptom persists, remove

3.1.1 Troubleshooting Guidelines
Before you begin troubleshooting, it is important that you read
Section 2
Service Guidelines
, and understand all the warnings and precautions that must
be observed at all times to diagnose and service the projector.
Consider the following before you suspect a performance problem:
• Make Sure the projector is plugged in and the correct voltage is available for the projector model. On some
models, the projector will go to standby with less than the rated voltage, but will not strike the lamp unless
the rated AC voltage is available.
• Make Sure the power switch is in the ON position.
• Check for a normal power up sequence. See 3.2 Normal Power Up .
• Check the status display window for any error codes present. Correct these if possible.
• Check source reliability. Switch sources if possible.
• Use RS232 serial communications to communicate with the projector during diagnosis.
• Make Sure cables are connected and not damaged.
3.1.2 Help With Troubleshooting
If a performance problem still exists after referring to the chart and replacing the recommended module(s),
