Password Protecting the Projector

The password feature lets you keep unauthorized individuals from using the projector. You can specify whether password input is required whenever you turn on the projector, and you can specify and change the password as required. Use the setup menu “Option Settings 1 J Power On Password” setting to configure power on password settings.

Inputting a Password

The password of your projector is not really a “word” made up of letters, but rather a sequence of remote controller key inputs. The following is the 8-key sequence that represents the initial factory default password.
[INPUT][AUTO][BLANK][FREEZE][S][T][W][X]

Using the Password Feature

Note the following precautions whenever you use the password feature.
• The password feature protects against unauthorized use of the projector. Note that it is not an anti-theft measure.
• You will need to enter the initial factory default password the first time you use the projector after turning on the password feature. Change the initial factory default password to a different one of your choice as soon as possible after turning on the password feature.
• Remember that password operations are always performed using the remote controller, so you should take care not to lose or misplace the remote controller.
• Also note that you will not be able to input the password if the remote controller battery is dead. Replace the remote control battery as soon as possible after it starts to go low.
If you forget your password...
You will not be able to use the projector if you forget the password for some reason. If you forget the password, you will need to bring the following two items to your CASIO distributor to have the password cleared. Note that you will be charged to have the password cleared.
1. Personal identification (original or copy of you driver’s license, employee I.D., etc.)
2. Projector unit
Note that your CASIO distributor will not be able to clear the password of your projector unless you bring both of the items listed above. Also, keep the projector’s warranty in a safe place.
Important!
Having your password cleared using the procedure described above will return all of the settings of your projector, except for the lamp time, to their initial factory defaults.
14
Keep a written record of your password!
You will not be able to use the projector if you forget its password. We strongly suggest that you keep a written or other type of record of the password so you can look it up when necessary.
To change the password
Press the [MENU] key to display the setup menu.
1
Use the [T] key to select “Option Settings 1”, and then press the [ENTER] key.

The letter N indicates that the setting can be configured while there is no input signal.
Setting Unit
The setting unit indicates how a setting is stored. “Source Specific” in this column indicates that separate settings can be stored for each individual input source. For example, you could store an “Image Adjustment 1 J Brightness”
setting of –1 for RGB input and a setting of +1 for VIDEO input. “Single” in this column indicates that a single setting is stored and applied, regardless of the
input source.

Aspect Ratio Setting and Projection Image during RGB Input

The video resolution of the projected image is 1024 × 768 pixels (4:3 aspect ratio). When RGB is input from a computer and projected by the projector, the input image is enlarged or reduced automatically to match the video resolution of the projector. How the enlargement and reduction is performed depends whether the aspect ratio setting is “4:3” or “Maintain” (page 9). The following shows how images are projected in accordance with the resolution of the input signal from the computer and the aspect ratio setting of the projector.
