Protocol is a set of technical rules for the trans- mission of information between computers. IP Address IP Address is the numbered address to identify a server for networking. Internet Protocol (IP) is the protocol to transmit data over the Internet, and the IP Address, which consists of exactly same numbers as the other address in one network, is not available. DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is the protocol dynamically allocating IP addresses to com- puters on a local area network. The computer with DHCP server can assign IP address to each com- puter on a local area network automatically. Subnet Mask Subnet is the separated part of network, and subnet mask is a number that defines a range of IP addresses that can be used in the network. Gateway Gateway is either hardware or software that acts as a bridge between two networks. Gateway is a sys- tem for transmitting data across networks that are incompatible and use different protocols. WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security proto- col that adds security by encrypting data. The encryption key enables only the authorized systems on the network to recognize the data. SSID Service Set ID (SSID) is the identifier for wireless local area networks, which identifies the access points necessary for transmitting. Some wireless local area network card uses [ESSID (Extended Ser- vice Set Identifier)] or network name as SSID.Settings Contents Resolution The resolution of this projector is fixed at XGA. Color DepthYou can specify the number of colors for the pro- jected images. You can select Normal (16 bit) (65,536 colors) or High (32 bit) (16,777,216 colors). Screen Refresh Rate The rate of this projector is fixed at 75 Hz. Login CodeYou can specify the login code to connect to the projector wirelessly. Disable: You can connect to the projector wire- lessly without entering the login code. Random: The login code is changed randomly each time the projector starts up. (Default) Use the following code: Specify the login code. The login code is a four-digit number.

EN-30 How to use wired LAN connection The function described in the previous section for the wireless connection can be applied also to the wired LAN connection similarly. When the wireless connection is poor and the network settings cannot be configured, use the function. For Ethernet connection 1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN terminal of the projector. Use a cross cable. Use a Category 5 cable. 2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of the computer. To project images, use the connection software. For details, see the sections B - F and G. Projecting images in Projecting images wire- lessly. (See page 21 and 22.) Important: When the wireless environment is poor, if you want to configure the network settings securely, or in other cases, use the connection. When turning on the devices, turn on the projector first, and then turn on the computer after the screen of the projector appears. If you turn on the computer first, the projector may not operate properly. Specify the settings for the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) properties in Local Area Connection according to those specified in Changing the net- work settings (See page 27). In the default settings, Obtain an IP address automatically is selected. When you use the wired LAN connection, the MONITOR OUT terminal, AUDIO-IN terminal, and AUDIO-OUT terminal cannot be used. Do not touch the LAN terminal directly with your hand as you may be shocked by static electricity. LAN LAN terminal Computer to Ethernet port LAN cross cable (10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX)
