Using the Projector Security Features

To prevent unauthorized use of the projector, you can do the
following:
Assign a password. You can use the password to prevent the
■
projector from being turned on, prevent your custom startup
screen from being changed, and lock network settings.
■ Create a custom screen that is displayed at startup and/or when
the button is pressed. The screen can be locked with a
A/V Mute
password to discourage theft and provides a way to identify the
projector should it be stolen. See page 56.
■ Disable the projector's buttons; this is useful, for example, if
you're projecting in a classroom and you want to ensure that no
one touches the projector's buttons while you're using the remote
control. See page 58.
