Disabling 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 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.
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 as pictured to the right will be displayed for 5 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
If you enter an incorrect password 5 times in succession, the projector will
automatically shut down in a short time.
