102 Fine-Tuning the Projector
Using the Projector Security Features
To prevent unauthorized use of the projector, you can do the
following:
■ Assign a password. You can use the password to prevent the
projector from being turned on, prevent your custom startup
screen from being changed, and lock network settings.
■ Create a custom screen that is displayed at startup and/or when
the
A/V Mute button is pressed. The screen can be locked with a
password to discourage theft and provides a way to identify the
projector should it be stolen. See page 104.
■ Disable the projector’s buttons; this is useful, for example, if
you’re projecting in a classroom and you want to ensure that no
one touches the projector’s buttons while you’re using the remote
control. See page 106.
Enabling Password Protection
The default setting for the password is 0000. Follow these steps to
create a new password:
1. Press the
Freeze button on the remote control for about five
seconds. You see this screen:
2. Use the pointer button to select
Password and press Enter.
3. When you see a message asking if you want to change the
password, select
Yes and press Enter.
note
You can also attach a
security cable to the
projector to prevent theft
(see page 150).
caution
If you lose the remote
control, you will not be able
to enter the password. Keep
the remote control in a safe
place at all times. Also, it’s a
good idea to write down
your password.
