Reset our Hitachi CP R555 Multimedia LCD Projector keeps asking us to reset when turned power on. I reset but this message is always displayed on power on. Can you advise how I should reset after filter clean. thank you

go to the menu, select option, service, factory reset

1. Switch power ON, and press the TIMER button on the remote controller, or the RESET button
on the control panel, for approximately three seconds. The 'LAMP xxxx hr' message will appear
on the lamp timer on the bottom of the screen.
2. Press the MENU button on the remote controller, or the RESET button on the control panel,
while the lamp timer is displayed. The 'LAMP xxxx ? 0 CANCEL' message will then
appear.
3. Press the and select 0, and wait until the timer display is cleared.

The setup is not correct. Check the requirements of the projector, (size, refresh rates etc.) and set the laptop up accordingly.
You will se the XP Screen because the laptop hasn't loaded any drivers yet and the screen is low resolution.
Hope that helps.

Hi....

Clean the filter

It will show you in the manual

lamp ballast and/or power supply is going. the ballast has to boost the charge up to 140 vdc, and after it's up to it full strength, it drops down to 40vdc to maintain. if the ballast can't get up to the proper voltage, it shuts down. or the lamp itself will not hold the voltage, and therefore needs replacing.

Specifically i don't know. What i do know is mfg's use the same codes, whether they map them to the same functions across a series of remotes can't say for sure. Experiance tells me it will be just fine...

hold rown reset on panel for about 3 seconds, wait for display, press reset again and select 0.

There is a menu item which has both the lamp hour reset and check air flow, etc. You must go into the menu and reset the air flow item. MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN THE DUST FILTER!! Heat is the number one killer of projectors and Hitachi's run "hot". I clean my projector once a week--Hey, I'm not rich. lol! Also, excessive heat will cause the lcd panels to fail prematurely and cause lots of other components to do the same.--Rick

If you do not have a remote here is how to reset the filter time. Use the "Menu" bottun to get the "easy menu" to display. Push the down arrow until you get to "Filter Time," then push and hold the RIGHT arrow to reset the filter time. DO NOT try to reset using the "Reset" option on the easy menu, it will not work.

Hi there

In your Menu options there is a subfolder where it either reads lamp or lamp timer.

Scroll down to it and hold down you right or left arrow key on the Projector for a couple of seconds.
