Epson PowerLite 7900p Projector

Controlling Multiple Projectors

If you’re using more than one projector, you can control all the projectors—or just selected ones—by using the projector ID system with just one remote control. To operate a projector, you have to set the remote control’s ID to match that of the projector. Or you can control all of the projectors simultaneously by setting the remote control’s ID to zero.

Using Password Protection

If you assign a password to the projector, a screen appears requesting the password whenever you turn on the projector. If you enter the password incorrectly three times in succession, the projector’s operation is locked. Disconnect the projector and reconnect it. If you enter the incorrect password 30 times in a row, the projector is locked and remains locked until an authorized Epson servicer can unlock it.

Setting the Projector ID

The projector’s default ID is 1. If you need to change it, follow these steps:

1.Access the projector’s Advanced2 menu, highlight

Projector ID and press Enter.

2.Press the right or left side of the pointer button to increase or decrease the ID value.

You can also create a user’s logo for the projector, to be displayed as the startup screen and/or AV/Mute screen. Unauthorized users cannot turn it off or change it. This discourages theft and provides a way to identify the projector should it be stolen.

Additionally, to make sure a borrowed projector is returned, you can temporarily disable the password for a set period of time. When that time has elapsed, the password function is reactivated and you must enter the password before you can use the projector.

Follow the instructions below to set the password, and then turn on the password and/or user logo protection.

Note: If you should happen to enable the password before you set one, and you see the prompt to enter the password, enter the default password 0000 to proceed.
