How to Use the Antitheft Alarm Function
Antitheft Alarm Function
The Antitheft alarm function is provided to prevent the projector from being stolen. When this function is set to
“On,” the alarm rings as an unauthorized person tries to move the projector.
Press the F button twice to turn the alarm function on. The
ALARM indicator blinks for a few seconds and the projector
enters the warning mode.
While the Antitheft alarm function is on, the projector emits
a low-pitched sound when detecting a vibration.
When the projector does not detect a vibration for a few
seconds after the sound, it goes back to the warning mode.
When the projector detects more vibrations after the low-
pitched sound, the alarm starts ringing.
The Alarm operation configuration (Alarm volume,
Sensitivity, and Ringing time) can be selected in the Alarm
function on page 51.

•The alarm does not ring while the AC power cord is connected to
an outlet even if the projector detects vibrations.
•Pressing the buttons is always accompanied by a sound. If no
sound is produced after pressing a button, you need to press it
again.

•You can test the alarming sound without setting the alarm. Press
and hold the F button, then the alarm starts ringing.
•If you want to stop the alarm while it is ringing, insert the AC
power cord to an outlet or press the F button and enter the four-
digit PIN code number.
Before operating the Antitheft alarm function, install a
battery in the projector (see page 52 for installation).

Press the F button and enter the four-digit PIN code number
within about 10 seconds. (The default PIN code is set to
“1111.”) When the alarm is released, you will hear a high-
pitched confirmation sound.
When entering an incorrect PIN code, you will hear a low-
pitched sound. If you enter an incorrect PIN code three
times in a row, the alarm starts ringing.
