Setting up the wireless LAN (Continued)

•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)

•[Initialize]

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.

PRECAUTIONS

•Browser authentication and Password are factory-set to Off and no string, respectively. You should set them as soon as possible.

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

■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).

•Set the Channel to channel assigned to the projector (in factory reset mode, this is set to 10). (for some computers, you cannot set the channel in Ad-Hoc mode. For this case, use infrastructure communication mode.)

•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 DPJ).

•If Encryption and Key are set on the projector, set to the same values.

Note: It is imperative that the projector and computer encryption settings are the same. If the settings are different, the encryption may be invalid when sending in the Ad HOC communication mode, so be careful.
