BenQ TH685P Quick Guide

To connect your BenQ TH685P projector to a laptop, use an HDMI cable. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI port on your laptop and the other end to one of the HDMI inputs on the projector. Then, select the appropriate HDMI input on the projector using the remote control or the buttons on the projector to display the laptop screen.

If your BenQ TH685P projector is not turning on, first check that the power cable is securely connected to both the projector and a working power outlet. Ensure that the power outlet is functioning by testing it with another device. If the projector still does not turn on, try resetting it by unplugging the power cable, waiting for a few minutes, and then plugging it back in. If the issue persists, consult the user manual or contact BenQ support for further assistance.

To adjust the image focus on your BenQ TH685P projector, use the focus ring located on the projector lens. Rotate the focus ring until the projected image becomes sharp and clear. Make sure the projector is placed at an appropriate distance from the screen or wall to ensure optimal focus.

A "No Signal" message on the BenQ TH685P projector indicates that it is not receiving an input signal. Check that all cables are properly connected and that the correct input source is selected on the projector. Ensure that the source device (e.g., laptop, Blu-ray player) is turned on and functioning correctly. If using an adapter, verify that it is compatible and working.

Regular maintenance for the BenQ TH685P projector includes cleaning the air filter and lens. To clean the air filter, turn off and unplug the projector, then remove the filter cover and clean the filter with a soft brush or vacuum. For the lens, use a soft, lint-free cloth and lens cleaner. Always ensure the projector is cool before performing any maintenance tasks.

To update the firmware on your BenQ TH685P projector, visit the BenQ support website and download the latest firmware version for your model. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware download, which typically involve transferring the update to a USB drive and connecting it to the projector's USB port. Navigate to the projector's settings menu to initiate the firmware update process.

Yes, the BenQ TH685P projector can be ceiling mounted. To do so, you'll need a compatible ceiling mount kit, which can be purchased separately. Ensure that the mount is securely attached to a stable ceiling structure. Adjust the projector settings in the menu to flip the image for ceiling projection. Always follow the installation instructions provided with the mount kit.

To replace the lamp in the BenQ TH685P projector, turn off and unplug the projector, and let it cool down completely. Remove the lamp cover by loosening the screws. Unscrew the lamp module and carefully lift it out. Insert the new lamp module, secure it with screws, and replace the lamp cover. Reset the lamp timer in the projector's menu after installation.

If the image is too dim on the BenQ TH685P projector, check the picture mode and ensure it is set to a brighter option like "Vivid" or "Cinema." Make sure the room is dark enough for optimal viewing. If the lamp has been used extensively, it may be nearing the end of its life and require replacement. Also, clean the projector's lens and air filter to enhance brightness.

To connect external speakers to your BenQ TH685P projector, use the audio-out port on the projector. Connect a 3.5mm audio cable from the projector's audio-out port to the input on your external speakers or amplifier. Ensure the audio output settings on the projector are configured correctly to route sound through the external speakers.
