Epson PowerLite 7900p Projector

Controlling Multiple Projectors

If you're using more than one projector, you can control all
the projectors—or just selected ones—by using the projector
ID system with just one remote control. To operate a
projector, you have to set the remote control's ID to match
that of the projector. Or you can control all of the projectors
simultaneously by setting the remote control's ID to zero.

Setting the Projector ID

The projector's default ID is 1. If you need to change it,
follow these steps:
1. Access the projector's Advanced2 menu, highlight

it, follow these steps:

control. You see it light up.
2. Press one of the numbered
buttons on the remote
control to select the desired
ID (0 through 9). Select zero

Using Password Protection

If you assign a password to the projector, a screen appears
requesting the password whenever you turn on the projector. If
you enter the password incorrectly three times in succession, the
projector's operation is locked. Disconnect the projector and
reconnect it. If you enter the incorrect password 30 times in a
row, the projector is locked and remains locked until an
authorized Epson servicer can unlock it.
You can also create a user's logo for the projector, to be
displayed as the startup screen and/or AV/Mute screen.
Unauthorized users cannot turn it off or change it. This
discourages theft and provides a way to identify the projector
should it be stolen.
Additionally, to make sure a borrowed projector is returned,
you can temporarily disable the password for a set period of
time. When that time has elapsed, the password function is
reactivated and you must enter the password before you can use
the projector.
Follow the instructions below to set the password, and then
turn on the password and/or user logo protection.
Note: If you should happen to enable the password before you set
one, and you see the prompt to enter the password, enter the default
password
0000
