Connecting to a projector on a different sub-net

By default, this application only searches for projectors on the same
sub-net as the computer. Therefore, even if you perform a search for
projectors on the network, one on a different sub-net will not be found.
You can, however, identify and connect to a projector on a different
sub-net, as follows.
• Specify either an IP address or projector name and perform a
search.
The IP address can be input directly. Also, provided the name of the
connected server has been registered on the DNS server, you
perform a search simply by inputting that name.sp.27
• Performing a search based on a profile
Once you have performed a search for a projector on a different sub-
net by specifying either an IP address or a projector name, you can
save the search as a profile with an easy-to-remember name, and
then use that profile whenever you subsequently want to search for a
projector on a different sub-net.sp.28
qIf a search fails to find a projector, the most likely causes
are as follows. Proceed as appropriate, depending on the
cause of the failure.
For both Windows and the Macintosh
• The wireless LAN signal is either out of range or weak.
Check whether there is anything that could be interfering
with the signal.
For the Macintosh
• "AirPort: On" is not set, or an appropriate access point is
not selected.
Check whether AirPort is set to "On". Or, check whether
an appropriate access has been selected.
