QWe use the DHCP/BOOTP server to assign the IP address. Is it possible to 
use the projector in this network environment?
A  Possible. This projector supports the DHCP/BOOTP server. To use this projector in 
this network environment, set it up so that the DHCP/BOOTP server does not assign 
the IP address configured to this projector for another device on the network. Please 
consult your network administrator ( pp.13, 24).
QHow can I install several projectors?
AInstall and configure network one by one to avoid the IP address collision each 
other. To configure the IP address please see item "Network configuration" ( pp.12-13, 
24).
Password/Login
QWhat should I do when I forget the IP address of the projector? 
AYou can check the IP address in the "Network information" menu.

projector must be in the powered-on condition.
QWhy does it sometimes take a lot of time to complete the page display?
AThe display speed of the page depends on the network environment in which both 
the projector and computer are placed. It may take much time to complete the 
page display if network traffic is heavy. Please consult your network administrator. 
QHow many numbers of the E-mail address can I register in the E-mail set-
ting page.
A You can register up to 10 addresses.
Q Why am I not receiving E-mail alert messages?
AMake sure that the registered E-mail address and SMTP server address are correct. If 
the SMTP server is located in your LAN (Local Area Network), the address should be 
set to the SMTP server in your LAN. The SMTP server located outside of your LAN 
may not be available for security reason. For further information please contact your 
network administrator ( p.25).

QWhat are the rules for IP address assignment?
AIf the network is constructed with TCP/IP protocol, a unique IP address is required 
for each piece of network equipment. The following are basic rules of the assign-
ment.
Rule1
     Do not configure the same IP address to the net work equipment in the 
same network group. Each piece of equipment must be assigned a unique IP 
address.
     If the IP address is set [192.168. x. x], the Subnet Mask should be set 
[255. 255. 255.0] for example.
Rule2
     The start address [xxx.xxx.xxx.0] and the last address [xxx.xxx.xxx.255] of 
the IP address must not be assigned to any other equipment. These address 
numbers are reserved.
Rule3
     The IP address must correlate to a network number. If network numbers are 
dif ferent between the equipment, they cannot establish communications 
each other. In this case, the router is placed in the networks to make the rout-
ing.
Q Can I control the projector by using the telnet application?
APossible. Please refer to the item "Use of telnet" ( p.46 - 47).
QWhat is the MAC address assigned to the projector?
AThe MAC address is displayed in "Network information" menu ( p.14).

ting" page.

Introducing
This PJ Network Manager is a SNMP manager software for the network equipment which 
supports the private MIB (Management Information Base).
By installing the PJ Network Manager to the computer, you can monitor the equipment 
simply such as the projector, the projection monitor and the flat display monitor connect-
ed to the network.
* The PJ Network Manager can handle our products which has a SNMP agent function. 
SNMP
SNMP is an abbreviation for Simple Network Management Protocol.
On the TCP/IP network, it is the protocol to monitor and control the equipment connected 
to the network.
SNMP realizes the management function by reading and changing the management infor-
mation called MIB with SNMP protocol between the manager (management equipment) 
and agent (controlled equipment) which are connected with TCP/IP network.
