6. Installation and Connections
Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional: NP05LM series)
The	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	also	 provides	 a	wireless	 LAN	connection. 	To	 use	 a	wireless	 LAN	connection,	 you	are	
required	to	assign	an	IP	address	to	the	projector.
Important:
•	 If	 you	use	 the	projector	 with	the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	in	the	 area	 where	 the	use	 of	wireless	 LAN	equipment	 is	
prohibited,	remove	the	USB	 Wireless	LAN	Unit	from	the	projector.
•	 Buy	the	appropriate	USB	 Wireless	LAN	Unit	for	your	country	or	area.
NOTE:	
•	 The	green	LED	on	the	USB	Wireless	LAN	Unit	flashes	to	show	that	the	USB	Wireless	LAN	Unit	is	working.
•	 Your	computer’s	wireless	LAN	adapter	(or	unit)	must	be	complied	with	Wi-Fi	(IEEE802.11b/g/n)	standard.
Flow	of	Setting	Wireless	LAN
Step 1: Attach the USB Wireless LAN Unit to the projector.
Step 2:	 Connect	the	computer	to	the	projector	via	wired	LAN. 	(→ page 114)
	 Use	the	computer’s	browser	to	display	the	projector’s	HTTP	server. 	(→ page 45)
Step 3:	 Use	an	HTTP	server	to	set	the	wireless	LAN.	(→ page 48)
	 Access	the	HTTP	 server	 function	 to	set	 [NETWORK	 SETTINGS]	→	[SETTINGS]	→	[WIRELESS]	→ 
[SIMPLE	ACCESS	POINT]	, 	[PROFILE1]	or	[PROFILE2].
NOTE:	
•	 To	use	the	HTTP	server	function,	the	projector	must	be	connected	to	a	network.
	 First	use	the	wired	LAN	to	connect	the	projector	to	a	network	and	then	use	the	HTTP	server	to	set	the	wireless	LAN.
•	 After	setting	the	wireless	LAN	by	using	the	HTTP	server,	set	[NETWORK	SETTINGS]	→	[SETTINGS]	→	[WIRED]	→	[DISABLE]
When	switching	to	set	on	the	projector	after	connecting	to	the	wireless	LAN:
Use	the	menu	to	set	the	wireless	LAN	connection	for	the	projector. 	
(→	page	97)
Select	[DISABLE],	[SIMPLE	ACCESS	POINT]	,	[PROFILE1]	or	[PROFILE2]	you	set	from	the	HTTP	server.
Attaching	the	USB	Wireless	LAN	Unit
NOTE:
•	 The	USB	Wireless	 LAN	Unit	must	 be	inserted	 into	the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	port	in	the	 correct	 direction.	 It	cannot	 be	inserted	
in	the	 reverse	 direction.	 If	the	 USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	is	inserted	 in	the	 reverse	 direction	 with	excessive	 force	applied,	 the	USB	
port	may	break.
•	 Before	 touching	the 	USB 	Wireless 	LAN 	Unit,	 touch	 a	metallic 	object	 (such	as	a 	door 	knob 	or 	aluminum 	window	 frame)	to	discharge	
the	static	electricity	from	your	body.
•	 Always	 insert	or	remove	 the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	unit	when	 the	main	 power	 is	turned	 off.	Failure	 to	do	 so	may	 cause	 projector	
malfunction	 or	damage	 to	the	 USB	 wireless	 LAN	unit.	 If	the	 projector	 will	not	work	 correctly,	 turn	off	the	 projector,	 disconnect	
the	power	cord,	and	then	connect	it	again.
•	 Do	not	insert	 other	USB	devices	 into	the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	unit	port.	 Do	not	 insert	 the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	unit	into	the	USB	 (PC)	
port	(Type	B).

  Remove the cap from the USB Wireless LAN Unit, and then insert 
it with the surface (side of indicator) facing outward. Keep the cap 
for later use.
NOTE:	Do	not	force	to	insert	the	USB	Wireless	LAN	Unit.
To	 remove	 the	USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit,	 disconnect	 the	power	 cord	
and	use	the	above	procedure.
NOTE:	
•	 The	green	LED	on	the	 USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	flashes	 to	show	 that	Wireless	
LAN	 Unit	is	working.	 If	the	 USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit	is	incorrectly	 attached,	
the	blue	LED	will	not	flash.
•	 Do	not	press	 the	button	 on	the	 USB	 Wireless	 LAN	Unit.	 The	button	 will	not

This	section	 describes	 the	simple	 maintenance	 procedures	you	should	 follow	to	clean	 the	filters,	 the	projection	 window,	
the	cabinet,	and	to	replace	the	lamp	and	the	filters.
1 Cleaning the Filters
The	air-filter	 sponge	keeps	dust	and	dirt	from	 getting	 inside	the	projector	 and	should	 be	frequently	 cleaned.	If	 the	 filter	
is	dirty	or	clogged,	your	projector	may	overheat.
 WARNING
•	 Do	 not	use	 a	spray	 containing	 flammable	 gas	to	get	 rid	of	accumulated	 dust	and	dirt	on	the	 filters. 	It	 may	 cause	
of	fire.
NOTE:	 The	message	 for	filter	 cleaning	 will	be	displayed	 for	one	 minute	 after	the	projector	 is	turned	 on	or	off.	 When	 the	message	 is	
displayed,	clean	the	filters.	The	time	to	clean	the	filters	is	set	to	[5000	H]	at	time	of	shipment.
To	cancel	the	message,	press	any	button	on	the	projector	cabinet	or	the	remote	control.
The	two-layer	filter	on	the	projector	improves	cooling	and	dust-proof	capabilities.
The	outsides	(intake	side)	of	the	first	and	second	layer	filters	remove	dust.
To	clean	the	filter,	detach	the	filter	unit	and	the	filter	cover.
 CAUTION
•	 Before	 cleaning	the	filters,	 turn	off	the	 projector,	 disconnect	 the	power	 cord	and	then	 allow	 the	cabinet	 to	cool. 	
Failure	to	do	so	can	result	in	electric	shock	or	burn	injuries.
1. Push the button rightward to release the filter cover and pull 
it out.

3. Remove the four filters and use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum 
all the dust inside and outside.
  Get rid of dust in the sponge filter
NOTE:	
•	 Whenever 	you 	vacuum 	the 	filter, 	use 	the 	soft 	brush 	attachment 	to	
vacuum.	This	is	to	avoid	damage	to	the	filter.
•	 Do	 not	wash	 the	filter	 with	water.	 Doing	so	can	 result	 in	filter	 clogging.
4. Remove  dust  from  the  filter  cover  and  the  two  filter  cases 
(large and small).
  Clean both outside and inside.
5. Attach the four filters to two filter cases (large and small).
•	 Attach	 the	coarse-texture	 sponge	filter	to	the	 outside	 of	filter	
case. 
  The coarse-texture sponge filter has slits on it. Align these slits 
with the protrusions of the filter case.
•	 Attach	 the	fine-texture	 sponge	filter	to	the	 inside	 of	the	 filter	
case.
