This section provides many useful tips on how to solve common
problems while using the AVerVision300AF.

There is no picture on the presentation screen.

1. Check all the connectors again as shown in this manual.

2. Check the on/off switch of the display output device.

3. Verify the setting of the display output device.

4. If you are presenting from a notebook or computer through the
display output device, please check and switch the document
camera source to PC Mode.

I have set up the AVerVision300AF and checked all the connections
as specified in the manual, but I cannot get a picture on the
preferred presentation screen.

1. Once the power cords are connected, the LED light turns RED as
standby mode. Simply switch the AVerVision300AF “ON" by pressing
the on/off switch until the LED light is blanking and turns GREEN.

2. The default camera display resolution setting is on 1024x768. If your
output device does not support this resolution; no image can be
projected. Simply press the MENU and RIGHT or LEFT button to the
increase or decrease the resolution setting.

3. If your display output device is TV or any analog device, make sure
the TV/RGB display switch is set to TV.

The picture on the presentation screen is distorted or the image is
blurry.

1. Reset all changed settings, if any, to the original manufacturer default

AVerMedia

setting (Refer to the Menu Functions for more details and steps).

E-22

2. Use the Brightness and Contrast menu functions to reduce the
distortion if applicable.

3. If you discover that the image is blurry or out of focus, press the Auto
Focus button on the control panel or remote control.

There is no computer signal on presentation screen.

1. Check all the cable connections among the display device,
AVerVision300AF and your PC.

2. Connect your PC to the AVerVision300AF first before you power on
your computer.

The presentation screen does not show the exact desktop image on
my PC or Notebook after I toggle from Doc Cam mode to PC mode.

1. Return to your PC or Notebook, place the mouse on the desktop and
right click, choose “Properties”, choose “Setting” tab, click on “2”
monitor and check the box “Extend my Windows desktop onto this
monitor”.

2. Then go back one more time to your PC or Notebook and place the
mouse on the desktop and right click again.

3. This time choose “Graphics Options”, then “Output To”, then “Intel®
Dual Display Clone”, and then choose “Monitor + Notebook”.

4. After you follow these steps, you should be able to see the same
desktop image on your PC or Notebook as well as on the
presentation screen.

How do I download images from AVerVision300AF to a computer?
Is it normal that AVerVision300AF will reset to camera mode after I
download images and disconnect the USB cable?

Choose "IMG Download" from the Menu, and then connect the USB
cable to download the captured and stored images from the
AVerVision300AF to your computer. When finished, unplug the USB
cable. The AVerVision300AF will automatically reset at camera mode.
