[About IP address]
■ Setting manually
The Network address portion included in the IP address set into your computer
should be common with projector’s one. And the entire IP address in the computer
should not be overlapped with other equipments in the same network, including
the projector.
For example
The projector’s initial settings are as follows.
IP address: 192.168.1.10
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
(Network address: 192.168.1 in this case)
Therefore, specify computer’s IP address as follows.
IP address: 192.168.1.xxx (xxx shows decimal number.)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
(Network address: 192.168.1 in this case)
Select from 1 to 254 for “xxx” not duplicating with any other equipments.
In this case, projector has “192.168.1.10” IP address, specify from 1 to 254
except 10 for computer.
NOTE
• “0.0.0.0” cannot be set to the IP address.
• The projector’s IP address can be changed by using the conguration utility
via a web browser. (
12)
• If the projector and computer exist in the same network (i.e. network address
is common), default gateway can be blank.
• When the projector and computer exist in different networks, default gateway
setting is necessary. Contact the network administrator in detail.
■ Setting automatically
When DHCP server exists in network, it is possible to assign IP address to the
projector and computer automatically.
* DHCP is abbreviation for “Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol” and has the
function to provide necessary setting for network like IP address from server to
client. A server that has DHCP function is called DHCP server.
