4210X, factory reset, then web console had a password set

Hi. I reset my Dell 4210x projector after purchasing it on ebay. When I tried to access the web console, it has a password set, and I can't figure out what it is. I have been able to get into it before I reset it, but not now. Does anyone know what I should do?

Go to Others menu, press the Enter button, and then select Password to Enable the password setting.
Enabling the Password function will open a character screen. Key in a 4-digit number from the screen, and then press the Enter button.
To confirm, enter the password again.

It needs something with 4 digits. It can't take anything with more than that

You will need to contact phone support so that they can provide a reset password.
