Understanding the Notification Messages
If a projector experiences a problem, EMP Monitor sends an e-
mail message to each of the addresses you entered in the Set 
mail notification function window. The subject line of the 
message includes the projector’s display name, shown in EMP 
Monitor, and the warning/error. The body of the message 
contains the projector’s display name in EMP Monitor and the 
error/warning message. When the problem has been fixed, EMP 
Monitor sends a message indicating the problem has been 
resolved.
Note: If a projector develops a critical problem, it may not be 
possible for it to report the error.
Checking Projector Status
If your projector isn’t working correctly, first turn it off, wait for 
it to cool (the 
Power light stops flashing orange), and unplug it. 
Then plug the power cord back in and turn on the projector. If 
this doesn’t solve the problem, check the lights on top of the 
projector.
What To Do When the Lights Flash
The lights on top of the projector indicate the projector’s status.
The following table describes the projector’s status lights.
