Using the password function
For security purposes and to help prevent unauthorized use, the projector includes an
option for setting up password security. Passwords may be set using the On-Screen
Display (OSD) menu. Please refer to the [Using the menus] section for details on
OSD menu operations.
It is troublesome if you keep forgetting the password after setting up password protection. We
recommend writing down the password and placing it somewhere safe for future reference in
case you forget.
Setting a password
Once a password has been set, the user must provide the correct password after starting the
projector. Otherwise, the projector cannot be used.
1. Open the OSD Menu and enter System > Security
Settings menu.
2. Press [Enter]. The Security Settings page will be
displayed.
3. Select Power On Lock, then press / and select
ON.
4. The picture on the right shows 4 arrow keys (, ,
, ) which each represent 4 numbers (1, 2, 3, 4)
respectively. According to the password you desire
to set, press the arrow keys to enter six digits for the
password.
5. Enter the password and conrm that password.
After completing password settings, the OSD menu will return to the Security
Settings page.
6. Press [Exit] to leave the OSD menu.
If you forget your password
If the password function is activated, you will be asked to enter the six-digit
password every time you turn on the projector. If you enter the wrong password, the
password error message will be displayed for 3 seconds before the message [INPUT
PASSWORD] is shown. You can enter another 6-digit password. You may use the
password recall procedure if you forgot your password and did not record it in this
manual. See “Entering the password recall procedure” for details.
If you enter an incorrect password 5 times in succession, the projector will
automatically shut down for a short time.
