During cooling, the LAMP indicator flashes. In this state, the power cannot be
turned back on. In addition, unplugging the power cord in this state will shorten
the life of the lamp.

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.

•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.

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.

window from another mode ( File or Document
camera ), click on the  Screen Image  icon 
.
2 Select Transmission mode.Click on  Update automatically  or  Update manually . See step 
6 for the meanings of
Update automatically  and  Update manually .

Click on the Advanced button.The Advanced Settings  dialog appears. Set the
dialog as shown below, as necessary.
• Interruption
Select the  No Interruptions  checkbox to prevent
other computer from sending interrupts to the
projector during your transmission.
• Mode
Selecting  High quality  improves the quality of the
projected image, but lowers communication speed.
Selecting  High speed  has the opposite effect.
•W indow
Select the  Place in Tasktray at the start of
transmission  checkbox to iconify the  Wireless
Utility  and place it in the computer’s tasktray
when transmission initiated.
To  display the window, double click on this icon, or
right click and select  Open from the popup menu.
T ransmission can be started and stopped from this
popup menu in accordance with the preceding
instructions, without displaying the  Wireless
utility  window.
■ Preparation●Mount the supplied wireless LAN PC card into the projector, and select
PC card input
Referring to “Mounting a PC card,” 
p.23
 mount the supplied wireless LAN PC card, then
select PC card input in accordance with “Select input” 
p.27
.
● Projector settings
The factory settings can be used as-is. If necessary, conduct the following settings,
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]
This can be used to identify projectors when communicating with multiple\
 projectors, or
if there is a possibility that another person who is out of communicatio\
n range will be
using the same projector. It is recommended this is set to prevent wrong transmission.
● Installing the applications
Install the applications on your computer, in accordance with  “Installing the
applications”  
p.24
.
●Computer settings
Refer to instruction manuals of your computer or wireless LAN PC card to\
 perform the
following settings.
• Select  Ad-Hoc  (for some PC cards, this is  Peer-to-Peer Group).
• Set the  Channel  to channel assigned to the projector (in factory reset mode, this is s\
et
to 10). (For some computers, you cannot set the channel in Ad-Hoc mode. For this
case, use infrastructure communication mode.)
• Set  SSID  (For some types of PC card, use  Network Name instead) as the same as
projector’s  SSID (at factory shipment, this is set to  DPJ).
• If  Encryption  and Key are set on the projector, set to the same values.
