Troubleshooting
If the projected colors seem completely wrong:
If the super-bright button on the projector is lit, the picture
is displayed in grayscale. To display colors, press the business
graphics button or the theatre video button on the projector or
remote control.

connectors are correctly matched.
Ensure the pins on the cable connectors are not bent or broken.
Open the on-screen menu and select
adjust picture > Color
space.
Try changing the selection.
Open the on-screen menu and select
help > Diagnostics.
Run

the projector.
If a VGA monitor displays a bad picture for certain inputs:
If you connect certain types of VGA monitors to the VGA output
port, it might have a blank or erratic display for video inputs, but
it should have a good display for computer graphics input. If this
occurs, trying using a different type of monitor.

If possible, turn off the projector. Then turn the main disconnect
switch off, wait 60 seconds, then turn it on again.
