Preventing theft (Password Protect)When the Password Protect function is activated, people who do not know the
password cannot use the projector to project images when the power is turned
on. Furthermore, the user's logo that is displayed on the background of the
screen cannot be changed. This is to deter theft.
When Password Protect is enabled
When the power is turned on for the first time after the projector's power
cable is connected to the electrical outlet, or when Direct Power On is
carried out, the following password entry screen will be displayed.
While holding down the [Num] button, press the numeric keypad buttons
to enter the password. If the password is entered correctly, projection will
start.
If you leave the power cable connected to the electrical outlet and turn the
projector's power on when it is in standby mode, projection will start
without the password entry screen appearing. The password entry screen
will only be displayed when the power is turned on for the first time after
the power cable has been disconnected and then reconnected. If Direct
Power On is set to "ON" and you are using a circuit breaker or similar to
centrally control the power, the password entry screen will be displayed the
first time the projector is turned on after the power supply is restored.

TIP
•If an incorrect password is entered three times in succession, the
message "The projector’s operation will be locked." will be displayed
for approximately five minutes, and then the projector will switch to
standby mode. If this happens, disconnect the power plug from the
electrical outlet and then reinsert it and turn the projector's power
back on. A window requesting you to enter the password will be
displayed.
If you forget the password, make a note of the "Request Code:
xxxxx" number that appears in the Password screen and contact the
nearest address provided in the "International Warranty
Conditions" section of the Safety Instructions/World-Wide Warranty
Terms booklet.
•If you repeat the above operations ten times resulting in an incorrect
password being entered thirty times, the following message will be
displayed and the projector will not accept password entries any
more.
"The projector’s operation will be locked. Contact the nearest
address provided in the "International Warranty Conditions" section
of the Safety Instructions/World Wide Warranty Terms booklet."
