Can I fix a discolored image on a data projector?
Answer
A discolored image from data projector is frequently purple:
This problem is normally caused by one of three conditions:
- A bent, broken or missing pin in the VGA cable connecting a computer to the projector or equipment rack. Examine both ends of the cable, inspecting for damage. Replace if required. (This is the most common problem.)
- An incorrect setting in the projector setup. Use the projector’s remote and ensure the appropriate (RGB) input is selected. (Computer or PC, for example.)
- Faulty LCD panel in the projector – no local fix is available.
