  If no image is displayed on your Elmo Digital Presenter, several factors could be the cause. First, check that the AC adapter and power cable are securely reconnected. If you've just turned the power off and back on, wait a few seconds before turning it on again. Ensure the output setting matches the connected cable and that the switch on the side panel is set to the right. Also, confirm that the monitor is on and the input source is correctly set.

  Striped images on your Elmo Digital Presenters can result from several factors. It may be interference fringes between dots of printed matter and TV scanning lines or CMOS pixels; changing the shooting range of the MX-1 may improve the problem. Vertical stripes on an LCD projector screen can be mitigated by manually adjusting the dot clock from the projector. If the shooting environment is too dark, adjusting the brightness in the Brightness adjustment mode may also help.
