Limitations
When the PowerLite1725 / 1735W exhibit a Lamp Cover Open error state,
EMP Monitor cannot detect the error. The reason is that when the lamp
cover is opened, the primary power source that reports the error state to
EMP Monitor is turned off immediately. This is different from other models
which make the secondary power source turn off under the same condition.
Note: EMP Monitor Ver. 4.xx is not compatible with EMP Monitor Ver. 3.05 and earlier
versions. EMP Monitor Ver. 4.xx cannot read the setting files of EMP Monitor Ver. 3.05
and earlier versions.
