Support Projectors BrightLink Series Epson BrightLink 436Wi

Nothing projects on the screen. What should I do?

  • If no image appears, try the following solutions:
    • Make sure the lens cover is open or off.
    • Press the A/V Mute button on the remote control to see if the image was temporarily turned off.
    • Make sure all necessary cables are securely connected and the power is on for the projector and connected video sources.
    • Press the projector's power button to wake it from standby or sleep mode. Also see if your connected computer is in sleep mode or displaying a blank screen saver.
    • Check the settings on the Signal menu to make sure they are correct for the current video source.
    • Adjust the Brightness setting or select the Normal Power Consumption setting.
    • Check the Display setting to make sure Messages is set to On.
    • If the projector does not respond when you press the control panel buttons, the buttons may be locked. Unlock the buttons.
    • If the projector does not respond when you press buttons on the remote control, make sure the remote receivers are turned on.
    • For images projected with Windows Media Center, reduce the screen size from full screen mode.
    • For images projected from applications using Windows DirectX, turn off DirectX functions.
