      If no image appears onscreen with your Acer Projector, ensure the projector is connected as described in the "Getting Started" section and that none of the connector pins are bent or broken. Verify the projector lamp has been securely installed. Also, confirm that you've removed the lens cap and the projector is switched on.

      If the screen of your notebook computer is not displaying your presentation through the Acer Projector, and you are using a Microsoft® Windows® based notebook, your notebook PC may deactivate its own screen when a second display device is in use. Refer to your computer's manual for detailed information on how to reactivate it. If you are using an Apple® Mac® OS based notebook, open Display in System Preferences and select Video Mirroring "On".
