6. Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
I have connected the power adapter to the
control switch but there are still no LED
lights indications on the control switch.
1. Check the positive & negative on the power adapter
is soldered at the right connection.
(See page 4)
2. Verify the voltage of the power adapter is in
accordance to your country current power voltage
input
I have soldered the RS232 connections to
the projector/plasma control port, but still
unable to control the switch accordingly.
1. Make sure the RS232 GND and TX soldering
connections are soldered on the right pin on the
controller PCB Board.
(See page 6)
2. Check the RS232 connection settings on the
projector/plasma for the correct baud rates or Pin
Configurations. There may be a need to change
the default baud rate setting on your projector/
plasma, if required.
(See page 6)
3. Reprogramming is required.
(Please refer to the programming manual)
4. Check RS232 connector is that short circuit.
Flickering images projected out after the
connections to the control switch. 1. Make sure the RGB Soldering connections on the
Horizontal and Vertical is soldered correctly.
(See page 3)
One of the colors projected out is missing,
or the colors are washed off. 1. Make sure the RGB Soldering connections on the
Red, Green and Blue is soldered correctly.
(See page 3)
If all the LED are lighted up on the control
switch. 1. Reprogramming is required.
(Please refer to the programming manual)
