Controlling a Networked Projector Using a Web Browser

Once you have connected your projector to your network, you can select projector settings and control projection using a compatible web browser. You can also edit playlists when the projector is in Content Playback mode. This lets you access the projector remotely.
Note: The web setup and control features support Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0 or later, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Safari on networks that do not use a proxy server for connection. You cannot select all of the projector menu settings or control all projector functions using a web browser. You can also control the projector using a web browser through the Epson iProjection app on iOS and Android devices.
Note: If you set Standby Mode to Communication On in the Operation menu, you can use a web browser to select settings and control projection even if the projector is in standby mode (the power is off). The Standby Mode setting is displayed only if the A/V Output setting in the Signal I/O menu is set to While Projecting, the Auto Power On setting in the Network menu is set to Off, and the Power On Trigger setting in the Operation menu is set to Plug-in Detection.
Caution: When the projector is in Content Playback mode and the Playlists screen or the USB Memory Device screen is displayed, do not remove the USB flash drive from the projector or disconnect the power cord. You could damage the data on the USB flash drive.
  1. Make sure the projector is turned on.
  2. Start your web browser on a computer or device connected to the network.
  3. Type the projector's IP address into the browser's address box and press the computer's Enter key (if you are entering an IPv6 address, wrap the address with [ and ]).
    Note: You can find the projector's IP address in the projector's Network menu or on the LAN input screen.
    Note: If you attempt to connect to the Web Control screen via a proxy server, the screen will not be displayed. Make a direct connection to the Web Control screen.
    Caution: Do not remove the USB flash drive from the projector or disconnect the projector's power cord when the Playlists or USB Memory Device screens are displayed in Content Playback mode. Data saved on the flash drive may be damaged.
