Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if the Status indicator is blinking rapidly?
The temperature protector has been triggered. Move the unit to a cool location and ensure ventilation slots are not blocked.
How do I connect the projector to a notebook computer via USB data jack?
Ensure the PC is turned on first. The signal usually transmits when connected to the Data OUT jack, but check the status indicator list if it fails to display.
What steps should be taken if the unit powers off and stays off immediately upon restarting?
If power does not come on right after turning it off, wait at least one minute before attempting to switch it back on.
