Configuring and controlling the projector via a web browser

You can adjust or control the projector via a network from a web browser on a PC that is connected to the same net- work.

NOTE:

Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher or Netscape 6.2 or higher are required.

If JavaScript is disabled in your web browser configuration, you must enable JavaScript in order to use the projec- tor web pages properly. See the Help files for your web browser for details on how to enable JavaScript.

If no operations are performed via a web browser for approx. 50 seconds the system will automatically log off. Please Re-log on to continue operations via a web browser.

After you logon, a small, blank window will appear behind the main operation window. Please do not close this small, blank window. If this window is closed, the system will automatically log off after certain period of time even if an operation is being performed. The small, blank window will close when the main operation window is closed.

The small, blank window may be considered a pop-up and be blocked if your browser or other security software is set to block pop-ups. If the window is blocked, you need to choose the option to allow pop-ups to be shown.

It is recommended that all web browser updates be installed. It is especially recommended that all users running Internet Explorer on a Microsoft Windows version prior to Windows XP Service Pack 2 install security update Q832894 (MS04-004) or the web browser interface may not be displayed correctly. And when using an older ver- sion of Internet Explorer, during operations the browser will log out after 50 seconds.

When configuring or controlling the projector via a web browser, an ID and password are required. There are two types of IDs, Administrator IDs and User IDs. The following chart describes the differences between user and admin- istrator IDs.
