Hi,
You could use the ethernet port of the projector to control the projector remotely through a web client.
The application of this is through Promethean's Activcommand Software.
It enables centralized control and maintainence of all projectors in the enterprise, including programming and scheduling automatic projector power on, power off, reports of bulb life, usage etc. Many schools have used this to save money on energy cost.
Here is the link to Activcommand Software.
