Hold down the Num button on the remote control and use the

numeric keypad to enter the four digit password.

The password screen closes, the numeric keypad is automatically

deactivated, and projection begins.

If the password is not correct, you see a message prompting you to

re-enter the password. 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 again, you can try

to enter the correct password.

If you enter an incorrect password 30 times in succession, the

projector remains locked and you must contact Epson to unlock it.

If you have forgotten the password, contact Epson with the request

code number that appears in the Password Protect Release screen for

assistance. See “Where To Get Help” on page 137.

Creating Your Own Startup Screen

You can transfer any image from your computer or video source to the

projector and then use it as your startup screen. You can also use it as

the screen displayed when the projector is not receiving a signal or

when you press the A/V Mute button. The image can be a company

logo, slogan, photograph, or any other image you want to use.

Start by displaying the image you want to use from either a computer

or video source, such as a DVD player or digital camera. Then follow

these steps to capture the image and transfer it to the projector:

1. Press the Menu button on the remote control, highlight the

Extended menu, and press Enter.

note

Once you capture an image,

it automatically replaces the

Epson startup screen.

Although you can change the

startup screen, you cannot

restore the original one.
