Setting LAN Mode

This feature allows you to set various setting items when the projector is used on your network.

Consult with your network administrator about these settings.

NOTE:

•A LAN card is required for LAN connection; NEC's optional wireless LAN card is available. For more information on inserting or ejecting a LAN card, see page E-30.

•Either PC Card Slots 1 or 2 can accept LAN card. If two LAN cards are in- serted into both PC card slots, the first inserted one is effective.

CAUTION: Make sure that the LAN card is removed during Standby mode (NOT Idle mode) or with the main power off.

Failure to do so may cause damage to the data on your PC card.
