    During cooling, the LAMP indicator flashes. In this state, the power cannot be

    the life of the lamp.
    B
    After the LAMP indicator goes off, the cooling fan continues to operate for a
    short while, in order to expel excess internal heat. If you are in a hurry, there is
    no problem with unplugging the power cord in this state.

    In standby
    Note•The projector consumes about 6W of power in standby (models equipped with PC card
    slot consume about 18W). We recommend that you unplug the power cord if you will not
    be using the projector for an extended period.PRECAUTIONS•Before unplugging the power cord, make sure that the LAMP indicator is off. Unplugging
    the power cord and cutting off the power while the projector is running or being cooled
    will shorten the life of the lamp. However, please unplug the power cord if the
    projector locks up or acts abnormally.
    •If the power cord was unplugged before cooling was complete, give the lamp sufficient
    time to cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats it may fail to light, and its
    lifetime will be shortened.
    LCD Panels
    LCD panels wear out. In order to prolong the lifetime of your LCD panel, take the
    following precautions.
    •In order to extend the lifetime of the LCD panel, always turn off the power when not in
    use, and make sure that the lamp is off. Keeping the lamp off is also very effective at
    saving electricity.
    •If the air filter becomes dirty and clogged, the projector’s internal temperature will rise,
    shortening the lifetime of the LCD panel and causing malfunctions. Clean the air filter
    from time to time 
    p.56
    , and replace it periodically. Contact the store where you
    purchased your projector, or your local Service Station for replacement air filters.

    Adjusting the volume with the 
     
     buttons
    The speaker volume can be adjusted when an audio signal is being input.Notes•Note that the lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.
    •A lamp is consumable supplies.
    If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out.  This
    is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on
    conditions of use.)
    •The LCD panel is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black
    spots (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel.
    Please note that these are not malfunctions.
    •Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals 
    p.68
    , any resolutions not
    supported by the model (XGA or SVGA, depending on the model) will be expanded or
    shrunk, which will affect image quality slightly. To view high-quality images, it is
    recommended that the computer’s external output should be set to the projector’s
    resolution.
    •With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images
    simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from
    displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information
    on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owner’s manual of your computer.
    •If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the 
     icon will appear.
    •If a no signal is being input from the connected device, the

    Using handy features (Continued)
    Using the wireless LAN PC cardPlease read this chapter if the model you purchased includes a PC card slot.Functions
    The following functions are available via wireless communications, when the wireless
    LAN PC card and dedicated Wireless Utility software 
    p.24
     included with this projector
    are used.
    Note: Toshiba does not guarantee operation if a wireless LAN PC card other than
    the one supplied with this product is used.
    1) Displaying a computer’s screen via the projector
    The computer’s desktop screen can be sent, as well as the screens of a variety of
    software applications, to the projector for display.
    2) Displaying an image saved on a computer via the projector
    JPEG files can be sent to the projector for display.
    3) Sending images taken with the projector’s document camera to a computer
    This function is for models equipped with document camera.
    See “Sending the camera’s images to a computer” 
    p.48
     for details.
    4) Operating the projector by means of a computer
    Some of the same functions available from the remote control can be performed.
    Communication mode
    This projector supports both Ad-hoc and Infrastructure Communication modes.
    Ad-Hoc Communication Mode
    This is transmission mode to communicate
    between wireless LAN equipment.
    Wireless communication can be performed via
    the simple configurations.
    This function can only be used if the projector is
    in range of the computer’s wireless signals.
    For security reason, confirm the specifications of your computer for the distance that
    the radio wave can reach. The coverage of this projector may vary, depending on the
    computer and the surrounding environment. When tested with a PC manufactured by
    Toshiba with built-in wireless LAN system, the coverage is approximately 60 m.
    This figure is not guaranteed and should be considered as merely a guideline.
    Infrastructure Communication Mode
    A mixed wireless and wired LAN can be created
    via access points. Connecting to the rest of the
    world via a wired LAN or the Internet generally
    requires a high level of security.
    Use the appropriate transmission mode for your network environment. The instructions
    in this owner’s manual assume that you will be using a simple ad-hoc communication
    mode setup.Access pointTo LAN,
    Internet, etc.

    referring to “How to use the menu” 
    p.52
     and “The PC card setting menu” 
    p.54
    .
    • [Communication mode]:
    Your projector is set to Ad-Hoc in the factory. See  “How to Use the Projector
    Configuration Tool”  
    p.59
     if you would like to set the mode to  Infrastructure. This
    menu item is used only for channel confirmation and the mode change from\
    Infrastructure  to Ad-Hoc .
    • [Channel]
    This item cannot be changed currently. This is function for the future.
    • [Encryption]
    Set the security encryption level. The higher the number of bits, the stronger the
    encryption, and hence the harder it will be for a third party to deciphe\
    r your
    communications. However, setting higher encryption levels will slow down
    communication speed.
    • [Key]
    The key must be set for any  encryption setting other than  None. [64-bit ] sets the  key
    length to 5 characters, [ 128-bit] to 13.
    • [Projector name]
