Managing Projectors from a Remote Computer

The projector’s software lets you monitor and control projector(s) from a remote computer. These features are intended for use by network administrators.

❏Use EMP Monitor to see your projectors’ status, switch image sources, and control basic settings.

❏Use EMP NetworkManager to receive e-mail notifications alerting you to possible problems.

❏Use a network management utility running SNMP, such as HP OpenView,™ to manage your facility’s equipment from a pre-existing system.

Note: A plug-in is available to allow you to manage your projectors in HP OpenView. Additionally, other SNMP management utilities may be available in the future. Check with Epson for availability.

Make sure you have installed the software (included on the projector’s CD-ROM) on the computer you want to use to monitor your projectors. (See the User’s Guide for instructions.)
