[Security for wireless LAN settings] <Network authentication>

Set the authentication to enhance network security. Select a method identical to that of wireless LAN terminal to be connected with.

<Encryption>

Set Encryption according to the setting you made for Network authentication, as follows.

When you have set Network authentication to Open or Shared, select WEP for Encryption.

When you have set Network authentication to WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK, select TKIP or AES for Encryption.

Note: Network authentication is factory-set to None. If you use the projector with this setting left unchanged, security may be compromised due to access by a third party within the projector’s coverage.

<Key index>

When you have set Encryption to WEP, Key index must be set. By default, “1” is selected. Select a key index identical to that of the wireless LAN terminal to be connected with.

Note: Since the range of key index varies by product type (1 to 4 or 0 to 3), make settings with attention.

<Network key>

When you have set Encryption to [WEP]:

For use at an encryption level of 64-bit, specify a string of 5 arbitrary characters or a string of 10 characters in hexadecimal notation.

For use at the 128-bit level, specify a string of 13 arbitrary characters or a string of 26 characters in hexadecimal notation.

When you have set Encryption to [TKIP]/[AES]:

Specify a string of 8 to 63 arbitrary characters or a string of 64 characters in hexadecimal notation.

Note 1: Alphabetic characters (A to F, a to f) used in hexadecimal notation are not case sensitive; the uppercase characters and their lowercase equivalents are handled to be identical.

Note 2: The longer the strings of characters set for the Network key, the stronger the encryption becomes, and hence the harder it will be for a third party to decipher your communications. However, the setting of larger encryption may slow down communication speed.

Note 3: To set a higher security level, specify a longer string of characters. For higher security, avoid using a word found in a dictionary and change the key sometimes.

<Setting initialization>

This item resets the wireless LAN settings to their factory defaults.

[Wired LAN settings] <DHCP>

If you set DHCP to Use, the IP address of the projector is assigned automatically by the DHCP server. If your network environment does not assign IP addresses automatically, set DHCP to Not use, then set the following items IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway manually.

<IP address>

When DHCP is set to Not use, consult with your network administrator for the settings below and set the IP address manually.

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

Note: If you set the same IP address for wireless LAN with the one for wired LAN, network function may fail to operate properly.

<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)

Note: If you set the same subnet work for wireless LAN with the one for wired LAN, network function may fail to operate properly.

<Gateway>

This value specifies the IP address of the device, such as a router, to be used to access servers outside the network. (Example: 111.112.xxx.xxx)

[Application]

<WEB browser>

Browser authentication

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

Password

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