Projector Security Features
65
You can secure your projector to deter theft or prevent unintended use by
setting up the following security features:
• Password security to prevent people who do not know the password from
using the projector, and prevent changes to the startup screen and other
settings.
This acts as an anti-theft function as the projector cannot be used even if it
is stolen, and you can limit who can use the projector.
• Security cabling to physically secure the projector in place.

Password Security Types
You can set up the following types of password security using one shared
password:
• Power On Protection prevents anyone from using the projector without
first entering a password. When plugging the power cord and turning on
the projector at first time, you must enter the correct password. This also
applies to Direct Power On and Auto Power On.
• User's Logo Protection prevents anyone from changing the custom screen
displayed when the projector turns on, when no signal is being input, or
when you use the A/V Mute feature. The custom screen discourages theft by
identifying the projector's owner.
• Network Protection prevents anyone from changing the projector's
Network settings.
