Projector turned off by itself
If the temperature symbol was shown before the projector turned off,
the projector was
too hot. Make sure nothing is blocking vents on the sides or bottom of the projector (and any
expansion module). Wait at least one minute before turning the projector back on.
If there is no signal from the selected video source,
the projector will turn itself off after 20
minutes.
If the lamp light is on
, see
Projector won’t turn on
(above).
Note:
If the projector is still
working but the lamp light is on, remaining lamp life is low.
Low lamp symbol is shown
Remaining lamp life is critically low. The lamp should be replaced soon. Buy a new lamp at

Projector won’t turn on
Check the power cord.
Make sure it is plugged into the projector and a live electrical outlet.
If the lamp light is on,
unplug the power cord, wait one minute, then plug it in again. If the
projector beeps and the lamp light turns on again right away (before you turn on the
projector), then the lamp needs to be replaced. Buy a new lamp at
www.infocus.com/store
If the wait light is blinking,
the projector is warming up or cooling down. Try again after the
wait light turns off.
If an expansion module is attached
to the projector, make sure the module is securely and
correctly attached to the projector.
Module error symbol is shown
The expansion module is not correctly communicating with the projector. Turn off and unplug
the projector, disconnect and re-connect the expansion module, then plug in the projector
and turn it back on. If the symbol is still shown, contact InFocus service at
www.infocus.com/service
Note:
To use the projector alone, disconnect the module.
