projector, and the switching hub using LAN cables, 
followed by configuring the network.
Connection Example
When assigning a static IP address
You can acquire the IP address from the controlling 
computer simply by configuring a network that consists of 
this projector, the controlling computer, and switching 
hub. Please refer to technical books on networks for 
details.
NOTE:

1 Check to ensure that this projector, computer, and switching hub are properly connected
2 Connect the power cord to the power input terminal of this projector
You can secure the power cord to this projector.AAttach the plug holder to the power cord.
B Insert the plug holder into the projector until the upper and lower securing levers are locked.
3 Insert plug into the power outlet on the wall
4 Remove the lens cap
5 Turn on the main power of the projector to set to [I]
●The [STANDBY/ON], [LAMP], and [WARNING] indicators light up for about 45 seconds, after which the     
[STANDBY/ON] indicator turns red.
NOTE:                                                                                                                                                                                 
●The default IP address of all DLA-SH 7NL is “192.168.0.2”. If multiple units of DLA-SH7NL are used on the same 
network, do not turn on the main power of more than one  projector unit at the same time. Doing so will result in 
duplication of the IP address, an d thereby preventing proper access.
● When using multiple units of DLA-SH7NL, turn on the main  power of the second unit and configure accordingly only 
after configuration of the first unit is complete.  Configure subsequent units using the same procedure.
● When duplication occurs in the IP address, make sure t hat only one unit of DLA-SH7NL is connected on the same 
network (turn off the main power of the other DLA-SH7NL unit s). Allow a time interval of at least 10 minutes before 
accessing. If access fa ils, turn off the power of all network equipments on the same network, followed by turning them

Assigning IP Address from the 
DHCP Server
The IP address is automatically assigned by the DHCP 
server.
1 After connecting, turn on the main power
●Refer to Page 24 on the details of connection.
● Refer to Page 25 on procedures to turn on the main 
power.
2 Set the  ADHCP Client B setting of this 
projector to  ADHCP B
●The  ADHCP Client B of this projector is set to 
A STATIC IP B (the DHCP client function is OFF) by 
default. When assigning an IP address from the 
DHCP server, access this projector from the 
computer to alter the setti ngs. For details on the 
setting procedures, refer to  ASetting (Changing) the 
IP address of this projector B. ( A Page 27)
NOTE:                                                                             
●Please consult the network administrator on the IP 
address assigned to this projector.
● When  ADHCP Client B is set to  ADHCP B, and if the 
projector is started up in a LAN where a DHCP server 
does not exist, the projector will start up using the 
default IP address instead.
CAUTION:                                                                      
● Configure the DHCP server such that the same IP 
address is assigned to the  AMac Address B of this 
projector by the DHCP server at all times. Connection 
may fail if the above setting is not performed. This feature enables delivery of mail (error message) to 
the preset e-mail address when error occurs inside this 
projector unit.
Connection Example (When 
DHCP Server is Used)
Connecting this projector and the computer 
using a USB cable
You can connect this projector and the controlling 
computer using a USB cable.
● You need to install a driver in order to connect the 
projector and computer using a USB cable.
NOTE:
