Starting the Projector with a Password
Caution:
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.
When the password function is enabled, you see this screen
when you turn on the projector:
Hold down the
Num button on the remote control as you use
the numeric keypad buttons to enter the password. Once you
have entered the password correctly, the password screen closes,
and projection begins.
If the password is not correct, you see the message
Wrong
password. Please try again
. If you enter an incorrect
password three times in succession, you see the message
The
projector’s operation will be locked. Request code xxxxx
and the projector switches to standby mode for approximately 5
minutes. Write down the request code. Then disconnect the
projector’s power cord from the electrical outlet, reconnect it,
and turn the projector back on. When you see the Password
Protect Release screen, enter the correct password.
If you have forgotten the password, contact Epson for assistance
and give them the request code number that appears in the
Password Protect Release screen.
If you enter an incorrect password 30 times in a row, the
projector remains locked and you must contact an authorized
Epson servicer to unlock it.
