Centralised Control using EMP Monitor

User’s Guide

108

EMP Monitor can be used to check the statuses of multiple projectors that are connected to the network and to carry out operations such as turning the power for the projectors on and off and changing the signal sources, all using a single computer. If there are several projectors that have been set up in different classrooms or meeting rooms, for instance, they can all be started at once and monitored by a single operator.

TIP

•A maximum of 64 projectors can be monitored and operated all at once in this way.

•If "Standby Mode" in the projector's "Advanced1" menu is set to "Network ON", EMP Monitor can be used to carry out network monitoring and control functions even when the projector is in standby mode (when the projector's power is turned off).

Check the following points before starting up EMP Monitor.

•EMP Monitor must be installed in the computer to be used for monitoring and control.p.99

•The computer and the projectors must be connected to the network.

•If using Windows 2000/NT4.0/XP, installation can only be carried out by a user who is logged in as administrator.
