Managing the Projector from
a Remote Computer
Your projector’s Easy Management software lets you monitor and
control your projector(s) from a remote computer in several ways:
■ Use EMP Monitor to see your projectors’ status, switch image
sources, and control basic settings.
■ Use the e-mail notification function to receive alerts about
possible problems.
■ Use a network management utility running SNMP, such as
HP OpenView,
™
to manage your facility’s equipment from a
pre-existing system.
To use the Easy Management software to manage your projector(s),
first install it as described on page 74. Then connect and configure
each projector you want to monitor, so it can be recognized on your
network (see page 75).
This chapter covers the following information:
■ Installing the Easy Management software
■ Connecting the projector to the network and configuring it
■ Using EMP Monitor
■ Using e-mail alerts
■ Understanding the notifications messages
■ Using a browser to monitor the projector
note
A plug-in will be available
to allow you to manage your
projectors in HP OpenView.
Check with your dealer or
Epson for availability (see
page 109).
If you’re using a network
management utility running
SNMP, you can configure
your network to send trap
alerts even without a plug-in
(see page 75). This feature is
intended for use by network
administrators only.
