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. 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. C 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.

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 icon will appear. •If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the icon will appear.

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. Hub O N / S T A N D B YINPUT MENUA U T O S E T F A NT E M PL A M PO N V O L .+V O L .-AUTOKEYSTONE O N / S T A N D B YINPUT MENUA U T O S E T F A NT E M PL A M PO N V O L .+V O L .-AUTOKEYSTONE

See step 6 for the meanings of Update automatically and Update manually . 3 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.
