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.

This bulletin was created to inform you on the release of the new Epson Projector Control software version 1.00.
Description:

EPSON Projector Control has 2 modes: Advanced Mode and Simple Mode. Although there is a difference in main display layouts between the two modes, their operation procedures are almost the same. The difference is as follows:
Advanced Mode: Each source has each source button. Therefore source can be selected
by clicking each source button directly.
Simple Mode:  Source buttons are toggle-type. Therefore source can be switched every
time the toggle-type button is pressed.
[1] Advanced Mode
The main display is larger than that of Simple Mode. Each source has a source button, so the source can be selected by clicking the applicable source button directly.

This bulletin provides useful information on how to connect EPSON Multimedia Projectors to iMac models that have no external video port and have Mac OS 8.1, 8.5 or 8.6 factory installed.
Problem: The earlier versions of the iMac’s do not have an external video port to connect an EPSON
projector. It is possible to output video signal from the iMacs by using a third party external video adapter.
Resolution: The current line of EPSON's multimedia projectors do support the iMacs, using the
recommended third party external video adapter from PowerR, at the supported video resolution 1024 x 768 with refresh rate of 75Hz. The iPresenter video adapter is a compact device that installs into an Apple iMac computer.

This bulletin provides configuration procedures for the newer Macintosh notebook computers with the EPSON Multimedia Projectors.
Problem description:
When the projector is connected to an Apple notebook, part of the Mac OS desktop may not display on either the LCD panel or the projector. Often, only the desktop wallpaper is visible on one screen, with the other containing the complete video output.
Reason:
Newer Macintosh notebook computers are often configured for extended desktop video output instead of video mirroring. This results in partial information being sent to either the LCD panel or the projector. This feature has been observed on Powerbook and G3 Powerbook models running Mac OS 8.x and later, but it is possible the issue has been experienced by other Macintosh users.

“Arrange” icon in the Monitors and Sound control panel.
2. Click the “Arrange” icon to access that control. In the “Arrange” control view window, there should be icons for two monitors.
3. Click one of the monitor icons and drag it on top of the other monitor icon. Release that icon on the other icon. This enables dual display support where both screens receive and display all video information.
