Solutions When the Image Contains Noise or Static
If the projected image seems to contain electronic interference (noise) or static, try the following
solutions:
• Check the cables connecting your computer or video source to the projector. They should be:
• Separated from the power cord to prevent interference
• Securely connected at both ends
• No longer than 6 feet (2 m)
• Not connected to an extension cable
• If you are projecting from a laptop computer, try turning off simultaneous display on the laptop screen
to avoid splitting the video signal.
• Check the settings on the projector's Signal menu to make sure they match the video source.
• Select a computer video resolution that is compatible with the projector.
• If you are projecting from a computer, press the Auto button on the remote control to automatically
adjust the tracking and sync settings.
• If you adjusted the image shape using the projector controls, try decreasing the Sharpness setting to
improve image quality.
• If you connected an extension cable, try projecting without it to see if it caused interference in the
signal.
