No Colour
Normal Sound
Colour controls set at minimum level (see page 38, 39)
No remote control operations can be performed.
Check whether the batteries have discharged completely and, if they have not,
whether they were inserted properly.
Check whether the remote control sensor is exposed to an outdoor light or a
strong uorescent light.
Check whether the remote control designed speci cally for use with the unit is
being used. (The unit cannot be operated by any other remote control.)
A cracking sound is sometimes heard from the unit.
If there is nothing wrong with the picture or sound, this is the sound of the
cabinet undergoing very slight contractions in response to changes in the room
temperature. There are no adverse effects on the performance or other aspects.
The top or bottom of the picture on the screen is cut
off when I use the zoom function.
Adjust the position of the picture on the screen.
Areas at the top and bottom of the screen where
the image is missing appear when I use the zoom
function.
When using a video software program (such as a cinema size program) with a
screen wider than one in the 16:9 mode, blank areas separate from the images
are formed at the top and bottom of the screen.
Parts of the unit become hot.
Even when the temperature of parts of the front, top and rear panels has risen, these
temperature rises will not pose any problems in terms of performance or quality.
Power automatically turns off unexpectedly.
Check the settings of “No signal power off”, “PC Power management”, “DVI-D Power
management”, HDMI1 Power management, HDMI2 Power management and “No
activity power off”. Any of them may be set to “On (Enable)”. (see page 49, 53)
There is no picture displayed or sound output
sometimes.
When HDMI or DVI signals are input to the Display using a selector or
distributor, sound or images may not be output in the normal fashion
depending on the selector or distributor used.
The symptoms may be improved by turning the power off and on again, or by
replacing the selector or distributor.
Whirring sounds can be heard from the display unit.
The display unit is tted with a cooling fan to dissipate heat generated during
normal use. The whirring sound is caused by rotation of the fan and is not a
malfunction.
The RS-232C is uncontrollable*
Check whether the connection has been made properly. (see page 16)
When controlling the RS-232C command on page 16 from the RS-232C
terminal in the display, make sure that “Control I/F Select” is “RS-232C”, and
that “Control I/F Select” is “RS-232C(DIGITAL LlNK)”, and “DIGITAL LINK
mode” is “DIGITAL LlNK(RS-232C)” when controlling from the RS-232C
terminal of the DIGITAL LINK device.
The LAN is uncontrollable*
Check whether the connection has been made properly.
Check whether “Control I/F Select” is “DIGITAL LINK/LAN” when controlling
with the WEB browser control or the command control.
Check whether “LAN Setup” has been con gured properly.
When connecting to a device of AMX, Crestron Electronics, Inc., or Extron, set
“AMX D.D.”, “Crestron Connected™”, or “Extron XTP” according to the device
to use.
See the “Signal quality” information of “DIGITAL LINK status” to check the LAN
cable status such as whether the LAN cable is disconnected or the cable is
not shielded.
