Setting up the wireless LAN

■Functions

The following functions are available via wireless communications, when the wireless LAN PC card and dedicated Wireless Utility software p.50 included with this projector are used.

Note: A wireless LAN PC card except the supplied one (or recommended by Toshiba) does not work with this product. Please ask your dealer about the available wireless LAN PC card.

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)Operating the projector by means of a computer

Some of the same functions available from the remote control can be performed.

■Caution when using the wireless LAN functions

The Wireless LAN in this unit uses the 2.4 GHz waveband. If there is a similar wireless LAN in the area, or a wireless device using the 2.4 GHz waveband, or a microwave oven, the communication efficiency of this apparatus will be reduced, and may become unusable, but it is not a fault. If this happens, check an area away from the current location that will not cause radio interference to medical, industrial and public equip- ment, and change to it, or stop using the unit.

■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.

Toshiba does not guarantee the converage of the radio wave in the form of figures. The converage varies depending on the performance of each wireless LAN equipment, existence of obstacles or other wireless LAN equipment used by nearby working groups, etc. The coverage is generally estimated on the assumption that wireless LAN equipment be used in an unobstructed office or conference room.

◆Infrastructure communication mode

Operations

To premises

LAN or Internet

Hub

Access point

This mode allows the projector to communicate with a wireless-LAN/wired-LAN mixed network via an access point. (It even allows for communication between wireless LAN devices.)

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.
