PIN feature

The PIN (personal identification number) feature allows you to password 
protect your projector. Once you enable the PIN feature, you must enter the 
PIN before you can project an image.

To use this feature, you must register your projector at

register

 and follow the instructions there to get a default PIN. The PIN con-

sists of a sequence of 5 navigation button presses. The navigation buttons 
are menu, select, up arrow and down arrow. Once you have this PIN, select 
Enable PIN in the Service menu. The Enter PIN dialog box appears.

Use the navigation buttons on the remote or keypad to enter the correct but-
ton press sequence. After pressing the first button, a dot appears in the cur-
rent PIN slot and the highlighted cursor moves to the right one slot. When 
all 5 numbers are entered correctly, press the 

Select

 button on the remote or 

keypad to select OK. If the message “Incorrect PIN” appears, verify the code 
and re-enter it. If you mis-enter a number, you must enter 5 numbers and 
press the 

Select

 button in order to access the “Incorrect PIN” message and 

re-enter the code.

To enter the PIN at projector startup:

tup screen. Enter the PIN. Use the navigation buttons on the remote or key-
pad to enter the correct button press sequence. See the description above for 
instructions. If you lose or forget your PIN, go to 

www.infocus.com/pin.

To change the PIN:

Select “Change PIN” in the Service menu. Enter the existing PIN. Enter the 
new PIN. You can navigate between OK and Cancel by pressing the up and 
down buttons on the keypad. Select OK or Cancel by pressing the 

Select

 

button. Verify the new PIN.
