Epson Projectors

Overview

Epson projectors are monitored via the PJLink protocol. As the protocol is not enabled by default, action must be taken by the user to enable it.

Steps before monitoring:

  1. Connect the projector to the network (reachable from the Edge)
  2. Obtain the projector's IP/hostname
  3. Enable PJLink
  4. (Optionally) Set PJLink password

The steps above are specific to each Epson projector, consult the official Epson documentation on details on how to perform each step.

Example for CB-L630U

Get The projector IP. For example using On-Screen Menu (OSD):

  1. Power on the projector.
  2. Press the [Menu] button on the remote control.
  3. Navigate to Network → Network Configuration.
  4. Go to the Wireless LAN or Wired LAN tab (depending on your setup).
  5. Look under IP Address or Status. You'll see the current IP address listed.

Enable PJLink:

  1. Press the Menu button on the projector's remote control.
  2. Navigate to Network > Network Configuration > Basic.
  3. Set PJLink to On.
  4. *(Optional) Set PJLink password (up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Note that spaces and symbols (except for "@") are not allowed.)

"Notified IP Address" is called in some Epson projectors "PJLink Notification". It might be confusing but this field is not relevant. No need to change it
