The projector has a blue screen and/or is not showing the display from my computer… o Make sure all cables are secure (i.e., not loose) and you are logged in. o Ensure the correct input device is selected. Select the projector ( PROJ 1 or 2) and then select either COMP
(for the iMac) or LAPTOP (for your personal computer) on the PROJECTION SWITCHER . o Running the projector through a power cycle can sometimes help it detect a display. Turn off the projector, wait about 30 seconds, and then turn it on again to see if it picks up the display device you are trying to use. o If you are using a laptop, make sure your laptop is toggled to display the output on both your screen and the projector.

There is no sound coming from the computer… o First, make sure the black audio cable is plugged into the headphone jack on the computer. o Ensure the volume level on the master console is high enough (4-5 should be sufficient). o Check the sound level on the computer (e.g., make sure the volume is not muted).
