In some installations, the projector might not be visible to the remote control, such as 
for rear projection. Use one of these solutions to enable the remote control to work:
■Use a remote control extension. Plug its cable into the remote connector on the 
projector. Install the receiver in the room with the presenter.
■Wire the remote control to the projector. Construct a cable with a 2.5-mm 
(3/32-in) stereo mini-phone jack at one end and a 3.5-mm (1/8-in) stereo 
mini-phone jack at the other end. Plug the small connector into the remote control 
and the large connector into the remote connector on the projector.

Installation and Setup
To set up network access
1. Plug a CAT5 network cable into the RJ-45 network port on the back of the 
projector.
If the projector has power, the left indicator light on the network port turns on 
showing a 10- or 100-Mb/s connection. The light on the right shows network 
activity.
The projector normally attempts to get an IP address from a Dynamic Host 
Configuration Protocol (DCHP) server, or, if a server is not available, it takes a 
default address. The IP address is displayed at the bottom of the on-screen menu.
2. If you want to view or change the projectors TCP/IP network configuration,  
turn on the projector, open the on-screen menu, select setup > Network, and  
enter changes. If you are not running on a DHCP server, talk to your network 
administrator to find the correct TCP/IP network settings.
To set the advanced network configuration, see “To set basic projector properties” 
on page 54.

Installation and Setup
Securing the Projector
The projector includes a built-in slot to secure the projector with a cable and a lock 
(such as the Kensington MicroSaver lock system, available at many computer stores).
1. Wrap the cable around a secure object, such as a table leg. Loop the cable to create 
a slip knot around the stationary object, and be sure it cannot slip off.
2. Insert the lock 
1 into the hole and twist the key 2.
If the cable shroud is installed on the projector, the lock secures the shroud and the 
projector.
