Details on individual items

[Communication mode]

Your projector is set to Ad-Hocin the factory. Change the setting if you want to use the projector in Infrastructure mode.

[Channel]

Usually, you do not have to set this item. If a network group having the same SSID already exists in the projector’s coverage, the channel is changed automatically to the channel of that network group.

Note 1: If a set channel is in bad connections for wireless connection, try the other channels to avoid the effects of radio waves to select the one in possibly the best communication conditions.

Note 2: To communicate in Ad-Hoc mode with a computer that cannot change the channel, start up the projector before the computer.

[SSID]

This is an ID code for connecting to specific individuals over a wireless LAN. This may also be called “Network group” or “Network name”. Please read the following carefully.

Note 1: The SSID is set to DPJ when shipped from the factory. If you leave this setting as it is, security may be compromised due to access by a third party using the “Wireless Utility” within the projector’s possible communication area. Before using the projector, therefore, be sure to set SSID to a character string different from the default.

Note 2: When you use the Ad-Hoc communication mode, if there is a similar SSID network group (for example DPJ, DPJ1, DPJ2, etc.) in the possible communi- cation area, it is possible that your projector name will not be displayed in the Wireless Utility projector list column. If this is the case, set SSID to a com- pletely different character string.

[Encryption]

Enable or disable encryption for security purposes.

Note: Encryption is factory-set to Off. If you use the projector with this setting left unchanged, security may be compromised due to access by a third party using the Wireless Utility within the projector’s coverage. Before using the projector, therefore, be sure to set Encryption to On.

[Key]

When you have set Encryption to On, the encryption key must be set. For use at an encryption level of 64-bit, specify a string of 5 arbitrary characters or a string of ten characters in hexadecimal notation. For use at the 128-bitlevel, specify a string of 13 arbitrary characters or a string of 26 characters in hexadecimal notation.

Note: Alphabetic characters (A to F, a to f) used in hexadecimal notation are case insensitive; the uppercase characters and their lowercase equivalents are handled to be identical.

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-bitencryption 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 Used, the IP address of the projector is assigned automatically by the DHCP server. If your network environment does not assign IP addresses automati- cally, set DHCP to Not used, then set the following item TCP/IP manually.

[TCP/IP]

If you have set DHCP to Not used, ask the network administrator to check for the following items, then perform the TCP/IP settings manually.

IP Address

An IP address is a unique number assigned to a terminal for connection to the Internet. The format is a string of four dot-separated three-digit numbers. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)

TDP-SW20 specifications

The Toshiba TDP-SW20 is a versatile and compact digital projector designed to cater to a variety of needs, from business presentations to home entertainment. Aimed at providing high-quality visual output, this model stands out for its range of features and reliable performance.

One of the key characteristics of the TDP-SW20 is its brightness level, which measures at 2000 ANSI lumens. This ensures that images maintain clarity and vibrancy even in moderately lit environments. The projector utilizes a DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which enhances the color accuracy and contrast ratio, delivering sharp and vivid images. The native resolution of the projector is SVGA (800 x 600), which is suitable for standard presentations and general content display.

The TDP-SW20 is engineered to be user-friendly. It offers a variety of connectivity options, including multiple input terminals such as VGA, composite video, and audio inputs. This flexibility allows users to connect various devices like laptops, DVD players, and game consoles without difficulty.
