1.
If the display is jittery or if it disappears and reappears erratically, check that the
source is properly connected and that its signal is of adequate quality for
detection. For example, it the projector scans the default input
Input1
for a signal to
display, and a poor quality or improperly connected source is connected, the
projector will briefly and repeatedly attempt to display an image. If no source is
connected, the "No signal present" error message appears over a blank display.
Correct the source connection.
2.
The horizontal or vertical scan frequency of the input signal may be out of range
of the projector. Refer to Section 5, Specifications for scan frequency ranges.
3.
The sync signal may be inadequate. Correct the source problem.
