Using E-mail Alerts
You can set up e-mail alerts to warn you of problems with the 
projector. 
1. Open EMP Monitor.
2. From the Tool menu, select 
Mail notification function.
3. Turn the Mail notification function setting 
On.

Recipient mail address boxes.
7. Click the 
Notification event buttons to select the conditions 
under which an e-mail alert will be sent.
8. When you’re done, click the 
OK button.
If a projector experiences a problem, EMP Monitor sends an e-mail 
message to each of the addresses you entered in the Set mail 
notification function window. The subject line and body of the 
message includes the projector’s name and the warning or error 
(similar to the those listed on page 99).
When the problem has been fixed, EMP Monitor sends a message 
indicating the problem has been resolved.
Fan error. Contact Epson as described on page 91. 
Sensor error. Contact Epson as described on 
page 91.
Other error. Contact Epson as described on page 91.

critical problem, it may not 
be possible for it to report the 
error.

Using a Browser to Monitor the 
Projector
If your projector is connected to a network, you can use a standard 
web browser to monitor and control it. When using a browser to 
access the projector, you cannot connect through a proxy server.
1. Make sure that the projector is connected to your network, as 
described on page 95. 
2. Follow the instructions on page 62 to set 
Standby Mode to 
Network On in the Extended menu so you can monitor the 
projector in standby mode. 
3. Open your web browser and enter the IP address of the projector 
you want to monitor in the browser window.
If you’re not sure what the address of the projector is, turn the 
projector on and select 
Wired LAN from the Network menu to 
display the IP address of the projector. See page 96.
You see a login screen.
4. Do one of the following:
■If you didn’t set a Web Control Password in the Network 
menu, click 
OK.
■If you set a Web Control Password in the Network menu, 
enter it in the 
Password box, then click OK.
You see a screen displaying the settings you can change.
5. Select one of the menu options, then change any settings as 
needed. These settings correspond to those found in the 
projector’s menu system. See page 54 for details.
You cannot change the 
User’s Logo, High Altitude Mode, and 
Language settings in the Extended menu or select the Reset All and 
Reset Lamp Hours in the Reset menu.
Use the controls at the bottom of the screen to choose a source, stop 
the action, turn off the picture and sound, or turn the projector’s 
power on or off.

Compatible Computer Display Formats
You can connect the projector to a wide range of computers, including

Although images are displayed at the projector’s native resolution of 
1280 × 800 pixels, Epson’s patented SizeWise chip supports computer 
display formats ranging from VGA through WSXGA+.
To project images output from a computer, the computer’s external 
monitor signal must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) that’s 
compatible with the projector; see the following table for compatible 
formats. For best results, the computer’s resolution should be set to 
match the projector’s native resolution (1280 × 800). If this resolution 
isn’t available, select one of the other compatible formats:
■Windows:
Right-click the desktop, select 
Properties, click the Settings tab, 
and select a compatible resolution. (For a notebook displaying 
through an external monitor port, you’ll need to click the 
Advanced button on the Settings tab, then adjust the resolution 
of the external monitor.) 
■Macintosh OS X:
From the Apple menu, select 
System Preferences, then click 
Displays. Make sure the VGA Display or Color LCD dialog box 
is selected, then click the 
Display tab and select a compatible 
resolution. 
You may need to modify existing presentation files if you created them 
for a different resolution. See your software documentation for details.
