the Remote Control
If you’re using more than one projector, you can control all the 
projectors—or just selected ones—by using the projector ID system. 
To operate a projector, set the remote control’s ID to match that of 
the projector. Or you can control all the projectors at once by setting 
the remote control’s ID to zero.

commands from any remote control. To change the ID, follow these

Menu button on the remote control. You see the 
projector’s menu screen. 
2. Select 
Extended, press Enter, select Projector ID, then press 
Enter again.
3. Use the  pointer button to highlight the new ID, and press 
Enter to select it.
4. When you’re done, press 
Menu to exit.
