About EasyMP Monitor

EasyMP Monitor lets you carry out operations such as checking the status of multiple Epson projectors that are connected to a network at a computer monitor, and controlling the projectors from the computer.

You can download EasyMP Monitor from the following Web site.

http://www.epson.com

The following provides brief descriptions of the monitoring and control functions that can be carried out using EasyMP Monitor.

• Registering projectors for monitoring and control

Projectors on the network can be searched for automatically, and you can then select which projectors you want to register from the projectors that are detected. You can register target projectors by entering their IP addresses.

• Registered projectors can also be assigned to groups so that they can be monitored and controlled in groups.

• Monitoring the status of registered projectors

You can check the power status (ON/OFF) for projectors and problems or warnings that require attention by using the icons. You can select groups of projectors or a single projector and then check the cumulative lamp operating time or information such as input sources, problems, and warnings for the projectors.

• Controlling registered projectors

Projectors can be selected in groups or as single projectors, and you can then carry out operations for the selected projectors such as turning the power on and off and switching their input sources. You can use Web Control functions to change the settings in the projector's configuration menu. If there are certain control actions which are carried out regularly at particular times or on particular days, you can use Timer Settings to register timer settings.

• Mail Notification settings

You can set e-mail addresses to which notifications are sent if a status that requires attention, such as a problem, occurs with a registered projector.

• Sending messages to registered projectors

You can use the Message Broadcasting plugin for EasyMP Monitor to send JPEG files to registered projectors.

Download the Message Broadcasting plugin from the Web site address provided at the beginning of this chapter.

Changing Settings Using a Web Browser (Web Control)

By using the Web browser of a computer connected to the projector on a network, you can set the projector's functions and control the projector. This function allows you to perform setup and control operations remotely. In addition, since you can use the computer's keyboard, entering characters required for the setup is easier.

Use Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later as the Web browser. Use Safari for Mac OS X.

If you set Standby Mode to Communication On, you can use a Web
