Connecting to a Network
The projector comes standard with a LAN port () which provides a LAN connection using a LAN cable. 
Using a LAN cable allows you to specify the Network Settings and the Alert Mail Settings for the projector over a 
LAN.  To  use  a  LAN  connection,  you  are  required  to  assign  an  IP  address  to  the  projector  on  the  [PROJECTOR 
NETWORK SETTINGS] screen of the web browser on your computer. For setting, see page 41, 42, 43, 44.

Note on Startup screen (Menu Language Select screen)
When you first turn on the projector, you will get the Startup menu. This menu gives you the opportunity to select 
one of the 21 menu languages.
To select a menu language, follow these steps:
1.  Use the    or  button to select one of the 21 
languages for the menu.
2.  Press the OK button to execute the selection.
After  this  has  been  done,  you  can  proceed  to  the  menu  op-
eration.
If  you  want,  you  can  select  the  menu  language  later.  See 
[Language] on pages 47 and 58.
NOTE:  Immediately  after  turning  on  the  projector,  screen  flicker  may  occur.  This  is  normal.  Wait  3  to  5  minutes  until  the  lamp 
lighting is stabilized.
NOTE: If you turn on the projector immediately after the lamp is turned off or when the temperature is high, the fans runs with-
out displaying an image for some time and then the projector will display the image.
When the Lamp mode is set to Quiet, the LAMP indicator will light green.
If one of the following things happens, the projector will not turn on.
•
  If the internal temperature of the projector is too high, the projector will not turn on to protect the internal system. 
Please wait for the projector's internal components to cool down.
•
 
When the lamp reaches its end of usable life, the projector will not turn on. If this happens, replace the lamp.
•
 
If the lamp fails to light, and if the STATUS indicator flashes on and off in a cycle of six times, wait a full minute 
and then turn on the power.
NOTE: Turning the Main Power Switch Off then Back On
Allow a minimum of 1 second between turning off the main power switch and turning it back on again.
The same will be applied when a power strip equipped with a switch and a breaker is used.
Failing to do so could result in no power to the projector. (There will be no stand-by LED)
Should this happen, unplug the power cord and plug it in again. Turn on the main power switch.
CAUTION:
The projector cannot be turned off for 60 seconds after the lamp is turned on and while the POWER indicator 
is blinking green. Doing so could cause premature lamp failure.
