You can secure your projector to deter theft or prevent unintended use by
setting up the following security features:
• Password security to prevent people who do not know the password
from using the projector, and prevent changes to the startup screen and
other settings. This acts as an anti-theft function as the projector cannot
be used even if it is stolen, and you can limit who can use the
projector.
• Button lock security to block operation of the projector using the
buttons on the control panel. This is useful at events or shows when
you want to deactivate all buttons during projection or at schools when
you want to limit button operation.
• Security cabling to physically secure the projector in place.

Password Security Types
You can set up the following types of password security using one shared
password:
• Power On Protection password prevents anyone from using the
projector without first entering a password. When plugging the power
cord and turning on the projector at first time, you must enter the
correct password. This also applies to Direct Power On and Auto Power
On.
• User's Logo Protection password prevents anyone from changing the
custom screen displayed when the projector turns on, when no signal is
being input, or when you use the A/V Mute feature. The custom screen
discourages theft by identifying the projector's owner.
• Network Protection password prevents anyone from changing the
projector's Network settings.
• Time/Schedule Protection password prevents anyone from changing the
projector's time or schedule settings.
