Troubleshooting
Consult this section if you are experiencing trouble with your projector. If the
problem persists, please contact hp. Refer to Warranty and Support Information
on page 39.
xb31 sb21
Problem: No image is projected on screen.
• Verify that the projector’s power cord is plugged in and properly
connected.
• Verify that all cables are properly installed and securely connected.
• Make sure you have removed the lens cap and that the blue Power
Indicator Light is ON.
• Verify that the Lamp Indicator Light is OFF. If the Lamp Indicator Light is
ON, the lamp module must be replaced. Refer to page 32 for the lamp
module replacement procedure.
• Verify that the Temp Indicator Light is OFF. If it is ON, refer to page 14.
• If you are using a notebook computer, you may need to activate the
external monitor port. Please consult the computer’s manual for instructions.
Key sequences for many computers are printed in your quick start guide.
• Check for damaged connector pins.
• Check that the projector’s lamp hasn’t burned out or been installed incorrectly.
Problem: Partial, scrolling or incorrectly displayed image.
• Press the “Auto Image” button on the projector or use the “Auto Image”
function in the “Computer Image” menu of the On Screen Display (OSD).
• If you are using a computer:
If the resolution of your computer is higher than 1024×768 for the hp xb31 or
800×600 for the hp sb21, the projector will re-size the image to match the output of
the computer. If desired, you may reset your computer’s display resolution to match
these by following the steps provided in your computer’s owner’s manual. You may
have to disable the computer’s monitor to correctly display the new resolution.
• Switch the notebook’s display to the “external display only” or “CRT only” mode
following the instructions provided in your computer’s owner’s manual.
• If you experience difficulty in changing the resolution settings, or your monitor freezes,
restart the computer and the projector.
Problem: The notebook’s screen is not displaying your presentation.
• Some notebook PCs may deactivate their own screen when a second display device is
in use. Refer to your computer’s documentation for information. If you are using a
notebook computer, you may need to activate the external monitor port. Please consult
the computer’s manual for instructions. Key sequences for many computers are printed
in your quick start guide.

xb31 sb21
In Control Panels, open the PowerBook Display to select Video Mirroring
“On.”
Problem: Image is unstable or flickering
• Activate the “Auto Image” function.
• Adjust the “Tracking” variable in the “Computer Image” tab of the On
Screen Display (OSD). Refer to page 25.
• Change the color settings of the computer’s monitor (see page 27).
Problem: Image has vertical flickering bar
• Activate the “Auto Image” function.

• Check and re-configure the display mode of your graphic card to make it
compatible with the product (refer to pages 25, 35 and 37).
Problem: Image is out of focus
• Focus the image with the projector’s Focus Ring.
• Make sure the projection screen is located approximately 1.0 m
(3.3 feet)~12 m (39.4 feet) from the projector.
Problem: The image is stretched when displaying 16:9 DVD.
The projector will automatically detect a 16:9 DVD source signal and
adjust the aspect ratio to produce a full, 4:3-aspect-ratio screen display.
If the projected image is distorted, adjust the aspect ratio by doing the
following:
• Select 4:3 aspect ratio type on your DVD player if you are playing a
16:9 DVD.
• If you cannot select 4:3 aspect ratio type on your DVD player, select 4:3
for the “Aspect Ratio” variable in the “All Images” tab of the OSD (refer to
page 23).
Problem: Image is reversed
• Change the “Projection Direction” parameter in the “Management” tab of
the OSD (refer to page 26).
Problem: Burned out Lamp
• When the lamp module burns out it may make a loud popping sound. The
projector will not turn back on until the lamp module has been replaced.
Follow the lamp change procedure presented in this manual (page 30) and
included with the replacement lamp.
NOTE: Some notebook
