Image is blurry, out of focus,
or colors are unnatural

• Check the Fixture filters (see

page 213).

• Is the DL.2 mounted less than 1.4 meters to an object? If so, move the DL.2

farther away to enable it to focus properly.

• Make sure the DL.2 is not operating near fog machines, hazers, or mineral

oil hazers (see

Fog Machine Warning on page 8).

• Clean the front window (see

Cleaning or Replacing the Front Window

on page 216).

• Check the lamp (see the projector manual shipped with the DL.2).

• If you’re using the projector’s on-screen programming system, you can

override zoom and focus using the menu system (see

Projector Control

on page 181.)

The LCD Menu display is off • If the Blue LED is off, the Computer isn’t receiving power. Press and hold

the Top and Bottom Tab select buttons to restart computer, (see

Menu

Panel Components on page 21.)

• If the screen is not backlit, press the LCD power button, (see

LCD Display

Adjustment Buttons on page 22.)

• Check the Video In Video Out adapter on the video card (middle plug)

connection.

• Check that the connectors for the composite video cable at the LCD Screen

and the Video card are seated securely.

Fixture behaves erratically or
won’t respond to DMX
control

• Verify that the last unit on the DMX link is properly terminated, (see

Setting

up a Standard DMX Link on page 10.

• To control the DL.2 with DMX, you must first enable DMX through the menu

System (see

DMX_Control Screen on page 27) or the CMA (see Viewing

and Editing Server Configuration on page 204.

• If you’re using DMX to control the projector using its native menu system,

make sure you send a safe command after each button command;
otherwise, it’s analogous to pressing a button on the projector menu system
and not releasing it (see page

Projector Control on page 181).
