Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean.
SMART ECO: When this function is enabled, the system automatically enters the power-saving mode if
there is no input and operation in five consecutive minutes. In this mode, the current is about 80% of the
normal mode, in order to achieve power-saving purposes; if there is no input in 10 consecutive minutes,
the system changes to the light source disabled mode; if there is no input in 15 consecutive minutes,
the system changes to the standby mode. When the ambient temperature is higher than 35ºC, the
system automatically enters the power-saving mode to allow the projector to work in even more harsh
environments.
LOGO refers to the logo of the brander displayed in 10s after the projector is powered on.
SECURITY: The system allows you to set the power-on password for the projector to prevent
unauthorized users from using the projector. The password contains 8 Arabic digits and does not support
other characters. If you forget your password, please contact customer service personnel.
KEYPAD LOCK: After the key lock is enabled, the projector's keypad will be invalid, and you can control
the projector only through the remote control or host computer.
