8 Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser Overview Connecting the projector to a network allows the Alert Mail setting (→ page 42) and the projector control from a computer via the network. To perform the projector control from a web browser, you must have an exclusive application “PC Control Utility Pro 4” installed on your computer from the supplied NEC Projector CD-ROM. The IP address and subnet mask of the projector can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser by using an HTTP server function. Please be sure to use “Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0” or a higher version for the web browser. (This device uses “JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other infor- mation provided in your software.) Access is gained to the HTTP server function by starting the Web browser on the computer via the network con- nected to the projector and enter the following URL. • Network Setting http:///index.html • Alert Mail Setting http:///lanconfig.html TIP: • The default IP address is “192.168.0.10”. NOTE: • If the PROJECTOR NETWORK SETTINGS screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to refresh your web browser (or clear the cache). • The display’s or button’s response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your net- work. Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the\ projector. Preparation Before Use Connect the projector to a commercially available LAN cable before engaging in browser operations. (→ page 19) Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable. Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the projector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the projector has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name cor- responding to the IP address of the projector has been set in the “HOSTS” file of the computer being used. Example 1: When the host name of the projector has been set to “pj.nec.co.jp”, access is gained to the network setting by specifying http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL. Example 2: When the IP address of the projector is “192.168.73.1”, access is gained to the mail alert settings by specifying http://192.168.73.1/index.html for the address or the entry column of the URL. 40 4.
