Determining the projector model in your classroom

The system menues can vary between models. The projector model is in one of two locations on the projector:

On the front of the projector (facing towards you) like on this model (the 695wi)

Or towards the rear of the projector near where the cables connect, like on this EB-725wi. (this is also the slightly newer model that is apearing more frequently in classrooms now)

The remote

The remote is largely similar for any model of Epson projector

The "menu" button is highlighted in the above image. The arrow keys surrounding the 'enter' button are used to move around the menus.

In case you don't have the remote these same controls are also built into the projector itself:

Regardless of projector model, start by pressing the menu button

Troubleshooting

Board does not seem to respond to pen touching green calibration target

Solution: Check that the pen has a working battery.

• Some pens have a physical on/off switch. Make sure the pen is switched to on.
• If it does not have and on/off switch, pressing the side button should cause a blue LED to light up on the side the pen. If it does not, then the battery most likely needs to be replaced. If you replace the battery with a known-good (either recently recharged or a fresh disposable) and it still does not register - submit a helpdesk ticket to get a replacement pen.
