Troubleshooting
No power
Make sure power b utton (or switch) is ON.
Make sure A/C power cord i s securely conn ected to the DC power suppl y
and the power supply is firmly connected to the Display.
Plug another electrical device (lik e a radio) into the power outlet to verify
that the outlet is supplying proper voltage.
Power is ON but no screen image
Make sure the video cable supplied with the Display is tightly secured to
the video output port on the back of the computer . If the other end of the
video cable is not a ttached per manentl y to th e Display, t ightly secure it t o
the NexTVision display.
Adjust brightness a nd contrast.
If you are using an Mac intosh older than G3, you need a Macintos h
adapter.
Wrong or abnormal colors
If any colors (red, gr een, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to
make sure it is securely connected. Loos e or brok en pins in the cable
connector cou ld cause an improper connection.
Connect the Display to another computer.
Control buttons do not work
Press only one button at a time.
VXP problems
The VXP adapter must be plugged in when the display is turned on. It is
not “hot-pluggable”.
