Troubleshooting

Communication cannot be established with the projector

When connecting the projector using serial-connection

\Check that the RS-232C terminal of the projector and a computer or the commercially available controller are connected correctly.

\Check that the RS-232C cable is a cross-over cable.

\Check that the RS-232C port setting for the projector corresponds to the setting for the computer or the commercially available controller.

When connecting the projector to a computer using network (LAN)- connection

\Check that the cable’s connector is firmly inserted in the LAN terminal of the projector.

\Check that the cable is firmly inserted into a LAN port for a computer or a network device such as a hub.

\Check that the LAN cable is a Category 5 cable.

\Check that the LAN cable is a cross-over cable when connecting the projector to a computer directly.

\Check that the LAN cable is a straight-through cable when connecting the projector with a network device such as a hub.

\Check that the power supply is turned on for the network device such as a hub between the projector and a computer.

Check the network settings for the computer and the projector

\Check the following network settings for the projector.

IP Address

Check that the IP address for the projector is not duplicated on the network.

Subnet Mask

When the gateway setting for the projector is “0.0.0.0” (Not Used), or the gateway setting for the projector and the default gateway setting for the computer are the same:

The subnet masks for the projector and the computer should be the same.

The IP address parts shown by the subnet mask for the projector and the computer should be the same.

(Example)

When the IP address is “192.168.150.2” and the subnet mask is “255.255.255.0” for the projector, the IP address for the computer should be “192.168.150.X” (X=3-254) and the subnet mask should be “255.255.255.0”.

Gateway

When the gateway setting for the projector is “0.0.0.0” (Not Used), or the gateway setting for the projector and the default gateway setting for the computer are the same:

The subnets for the projector and the computer should be the same.

The IP address parts shown by the subnet mask for the projector and the computer should be the same.

(Example)

When the IP address is “192.168.150.2” and the subnet mask is “255.255.255.0” for the projector, the IP address for the computer should be “192.168.150.X” (X=3-254) and the subnet mask should be “255.255.255.0”.

Data Port

Other computers should not use the data port of the projector.

The data port should be used for communication during the stack projection.

Note

The factory default settings (“DHCP Client” is set to “OFF” on the projector) are as follows: IP address : 192.168.150.2

Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0

Gateway address : 0.0.0.0 (Not Used)

For network settings for the projector, refer to page 24.

Eiki EIP-WX5000L specifications Troubleshooting, When connecting the projector using serial-connection

EIP-WX5000, EIP-WX5000L specifications

The Eiki EIP-WX5000 and EIP-WX5000L are cutting-edge projectors designed for high-performance presentations and immersive viewing experiences. Both models are equipped with advanced technologies that cater to the needs of professional environments, such as conference rooms, lecture halls, and large venues.

One of the standout features of the EIP-WX5000 series is its high brightness capability, with a luminosity of up to 5000 lumens. This ensures that images remain vibrant and visible even in well-lit environments, making it ideal for business presentations or educational settings where lighting conditions can vary. The WXGA resolution (1280 x 800 pixels) offers a sharp and clear image quality, enhancing the details and clarity of presentations and videos alike.

Both projectors leverage DLP technology, known for its durability and exceptional color accuracy. This technology enables a richer color palette and minimizes the risk of color decay over time, ensuring that users can rely on consistent performance. The EIP-WX5000 and EIP-WX5000L also feature a contrast ratio of up to 3000:1, providing deeper blacks and brighter whites, which accentuates the depth of the projected image.

Flexibility in installation is another appealing characteristic of these projectors. They come with a variety of lens options that support short throw, long throw, and ultra-short throw configurations. This adaptability makes them suitable for different room layouts and sizes, allowing users to set up the projector in a way that best suits their space.

Connectivity is a key component in today’s technology, and the EIP-WX5000 series does not disappoint. The projectors are equipped with multiple input options including HDMI, VGA, and USB, facilitating easy connections with a wide range of devices such as laptops, tablets, and Blu-ray players. The inclusion of built-in networking capabilities also allows for remote management and control via a web browser, enhancing convenience for IT departments.

For those concerned about noise levels, both models operate quietly, making them suitable for environments where distractions must be minimized. Additionally, they offer extensive lamp life, which contributes to lower maintenance costs over time.

In conclusion, the Eiki EIP-WX5000 and EIP-WX5000L projectors are engineered for excellence in presentation quality, adaptability, and ease of use, making them highly favorable for professional applications across various industries.
