How Do I Check the Bulb Life of a Proxima 6850?

Data Projector

The Proxima 6850, also known as a data projector, not only allows you to display data from a computer on a large projection screen, but you can also display movies from a DVD player or streaming video from the Internet. Like other LCD projectors, the Proxima 6850 contains a light-bulb assembly that eventually burns out. To check the bulb's life, you don't need to call a technician or disassemble the projector. The bulb's life counter is easily accessed via the projector's display.

1. Turn on the projector by pressing the "Power" button on top of the device.

2. Press and hold the "Reset" button on the projector's keypad for three seconds
