Preventing theft (Password Protect)(EMP-9300 only)
The Password Protect function is only available with the EMP-9300.
When the Password Protect function is activated, people who do not know
the password cannot use the projector to project images when the power is
turned on. Furthermore, the company logo and administrator's name that
are displayed when the power is turned on cannot be changed. This means
that the projector cannot be used if it is taken without authorisation, and
thus serves as a theft-prevention feature.
When Password Protect is enabled
When the power is turned on, the password entry screen is displayed. If
you press the [Num] button, the [Num] button will illuminate and the
buttons outlined in the box below will switch to numeric keypad mode.
Use the numeric keypad buttons to enter the password that has been set. If
the password is entered correctly, projection will then start.

TIP
•The password entry screen appears only after the power cable is
plugged in and the power first turned on when the time is set to "0".
•If an incorrect password is entered three times in succession, the
message "The projector’s operation will be locked." will be displayed
for approximately five minutes, and then the projector will switch to
standby mode. If this happens, disconnect the power plug from the
electrical outlet and then reinsert it and turn the projector's power
back on. A window requesting you to enter the password will be
displayed, so enter the correct password.
If you happen to forget the password, make a note of the request
code: xxxx" number that appears in the Password screen and
contact the nearest address provided in the "International Warranty
Conditions" section of the Safety Instructions/World-Wide Warranty
Terms booklet.
• If the above operation should happen to be repeated nine times
without a correct password being entered, the following message will
be displayed and the projector's power will not be able to be turned
on.
"The projector's operation will be locked. Contact the nearest
address provided in the "International Warranty Conditions" section
of the Safety Instructions/World Wide Warranty Terms booklet."
