barco data 500 help

Thread Starter 
I have recently acquired a CRT projector and don't really know what I am doing. I connected my laptop to the projector via VGA and put my computer on the projector mode but nothing will show. I am thinking that I need to change the input on the projector but i don't have a remote control for it so I wouldn't know how to change it.

Any help would be great!

Thanks
Drew

You can't do anything without the remote, sorry! I have some available, or they do show up on eBay. Keep in mind that this is a really old projector. Check the tube condition before you spend any money on it, Pull the lenses and look at the tube condition:

Any tube less than a 5 makes the set not worth spending any money on IMHO.

Before you get IR remote, you can use projectors internal back lit remote.

It should flip out from back panel. Internal remote.jpg 41k .jpg file

The 500 did not come with an internal keypad.
