1 note If you're using a network management utility running SNMP, you can configure your network to send trap alerts even without a plug-in (see page 138). This feature is intended for use by network administrators only. Managing Projectors The EasyManagement software for your projector lets you monitor and control your projectors from a remote computer: ■ Use EMP Monitor (available for Windows only) to see your projectors' status, switch image sources, and control basic settings. ■ Use the mail notification function to receive e-mail alerts about possible problems. ■ Use a network management utility running SNMP, such as HP OpenView, to manage your facility's equipment from a pre-existing system. You can also use NS Connection to register up to 16 projectors as a group. This allows you to provide quick and easy access to these projectors from other computers. To use the EasyManagement software to manage your projectors, first install EMP Monitor as described on page 185. If you plan to create projector groups, also install EMP NS Connection. Then connect and configure each projector you want to monitor. You can connect the projector wirelessly in Access Point mode (as described on page 68) or over a wired network (as described on page 138). This chapter covers the following information: ■ Connecting the projector to and configuring it for a wired network ■ Monitoring and controlling your projector with EMP Monitor ■ Using e-mail alerts to warn you of problems ■ Understanding notification messages ■ Using a browser to monitor the projector ■ Using projector groups 137
