Controlling Multiple Projectors

the projectors—or just selected ones—by using the projector
ID system. 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.

Managing Projectors from a Remote
Computer
The EasyManagement software lets you monitor and control
projector(s) from a remote computer. These features are
intended for use by network administrators.
Use EMP Monitor to see your projectors' status, switch
image sources, and control basic settings.
Use EMP NetworkManager to receive e-mail notifications
alerting you to possible problems.
Make sure you install the software (included on the projector's
CD-ROM) on the computer you want to use to monitor your
projectors.

Setting Up the Network

Connect each projector you want to monitor to your network
and configure it with an appropriate IP address.
