**also if you do not have a remote (how it usually comes from factory), you will need to buy some kind of universal remote in order to access menu and turn it back on again. If you plug in a regular remote, it will only work for power off and power on through home screen. If you plug in a universal remote, you should be able to access other functions through home screen**

I read this article looking for info on my own older model Promethean projector; I'd turned it off by mistake, didn't have the remote control handy and couldn't figure out how to get it going again without turning off the power strip. I tried this procedure without success (I was too slow with my remote control button presses); however I tried it again with the power strip unplugged from the wall and found success.
