Preventing theft (Password Protect)
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 user's logo that is displayed on the background of the
screen cannot be changed. This is effective against theft.
When Password Protect is enabled
When the power is turned on, the password entry screen is displayed. If a
window asking you to enter a password is displayed, press the [Num]
button to switch the buttons shown in the box in the illustration below to
numeric keypad mode.
While holding down the [Num] button, press the numeric keypad buttons
to enter the password. If the password is entered correctly, projection will
then start.

TIP
•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: xxxxx" 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 you repeat the above operations ten times resulting in an incorrect
password being entered thirty times, the following message will be
displayed and the projector will not accept password entries any
more.
"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."
