Configuring the Projector
Turning on Password Protection
If you enable the Power On Protect setting, a screen appears
requesting the password whenever the projector is turned on. If you
loan the projector to someone, but you want to make sure that the
they return it by a certain time, you can disable the password for a
set period of time. When that time has elapsed, the password is
reactivated and must be entered before the projector can be used.
Make sure that you’ve set a password for the projector as described on
page 68. Then follow the steps below:
1. Press and hold down the
Freeze
button until you see the
Password Protect menu:
2. Select
Power On Protect
and press
Enter
. Then select
On
and
press
Enter
.
3. Press
Esc
to return to the Password Protect menu.
4. If you want to disable the password temporarily, select
Password
Timer
and press
Enter
. Then select
On
and Press
Enter
.
5. Press
Esc
to return to the Password Protect menu.
6. Select
Timer
and press
Enter
. Hold down the
Num
button on
the remote control while you use the numeric keypad to enter the
number of hours to disable the password for, then press
Enter
.
When the period defined in the Timer setting has passed, and the
password is entered correctly, the elapsed time will be reset to 0 and
the countdown will start again. Remember to disable or change this
setting when you need to.
If you lose the remote control, you will not be able to enter the
password, so keep the remote control in a safe place at all times.
note
If you are prompted for a
password, press and hold
down the
Num
key on the
remote control while you use
the numeric keypad to enter
the password.
If you enter the password
incorrectly three times in
succession, the projector’s
operation is locked and
you’ll need to turn it off and
disconnect the power cord,
then reconnect it. If an
incorrect password is entered
30 times in succession, the
projector is locked and you’ll
need to contact Epson to
unlock it. See “Where To
Get Help” on page 109.
note
The countdown for the
elapsed time begins as soon
as you close the Password
Protect menu. (You can
check the elapsed time
in this menu next to
Time-elapsed.)
If you want the projector to
request the password every
time it is turned on, set the
Timer to
0H .
