■ 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
).
•
[
Channel
] : You may need to set channels depending on the wireless LAN PC card being
used. Make the [
Channel
] settings identical to the computer settings.
•
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
TDPJ
).
•
If
Encryption
and
WEP key
are set on the projector, set to the same values.
Note
allows users to easily connect the projector to a computer
over wireless networks, without making network setting. For Easy Connect support, the
computer requires a wireless LAN environment that is NDIS5.1 compliant.
Refer to the user’s manual supplied with the wireless LAN adapter or the wireless LAN
embedded computer for more information.
Setting up the wireless LAN (Continued)
The higher the number of bits, the stronger the encryption, and hence the harder it will
be for a third party to decipher your communications. However, setting higher encryp-
tion levels may slow down communication speed. To set the highest security level,
specify a
128-bit
WEP key. For higher security, avoid using a word found in a dictionary
and change the key sometimes.
Set the following item if you have set the communication mode to Infrastructure.
<
DHCP
>
If you set
DHCP
to
Use
, the IP address of the projector is assigned automatically by the
DHCP server. If your network environment does not assign IP addresses automatically,
set
DHCP
to
Not use
, then set the following items
IP address
,
Subnet mask
and
Gateway
manually.
<
IP address
>
When
DHCP
is set to
Not use
, consult with your network administrator for the settings
below and set the
IP address
manually.
An IP address is a unique number assigned to a terminal. The format is a string of four
dot-separated three-digit numbers. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)
<
Subnet mask
>
A subnet mask is used to determine what subnet the IP address assigned to a terminal
belongs to. (Example: 255.255.xxx.xxx)
<
Gateway
>
This value specifies the device, such as a router, to be used to access servers outside
the network. It is identified by the IP address. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)
• [Setting initialization]
This item resets the wireless LAN settings to their factory defaults.
• [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 communication range will be
using the same projector. It is recommended this is set to prevent wrong transmission.
Note
• You need to set a different projector name from that used in the item
Wired LAN
of
the
Control setting
menu.
• [WEB browser]
<
Browser authentication
>
Browser authentication
and
Password
are factory-set to
Off
and no string, respec-
tively. You should set them as soon as possible.
<
Password

If you have forgotten your password, set it again using the menu on the main unit.
