I have a Zenith Pro895x that I bought new and years ago I set it up to turn
on when my system turned on with a series of button pushes. I am selling my
house and projector stays in theater but I can't find info to reset
projector to turn on with the remote control. Any help would be appreciated,

Does the manual not have it? See here:

No, sorry already went through manual. I am trying to go back to the default internal setting where projector turns on from remote, not when power is applied.

I poked through the manual and install manual quickly and see nothing about setting the projector to come on whenever power is applied.

Your projector turns on when power is applied? Meaning that it turns on the moment you plug it in to a live outlet? That doesn't sound normal. I've never heard of a CRT projector that can be set to be always on whenever power is applied. Are you sure you don't have your system set up differently, possibly an IR emitter that blasts the projector to turn on when the rest of the system is turned on somehow by remote?

I asked him to post here. There is apparently a hidden menu where you can do that, but I don't know of it. You can do the same with the popular data projectors, so that when you flick a light switch in a classroom (for example) the projector comes on. I don't know how to get into that hidden menu.

Interesting! Never knew something like that existed!

All projectors have this feature.
