Functions and Features of EasyMP.net
A projector with EasyMP.net can provide various functions required for
presentation by network connection. The following section provides typical
application examples and available functions.
Projection by Network Connection
When the projector is used in class or in a conference room, the projector need not
be connected directly to the local PC. If the projector is connected to the network,
its EasyMP.net can process various PC and projector operations in the on-line
mode.
Quick Start-up of Presentations via the Network
If a network environment has been established, you skip the preparation such as
data copy in a notebook PC or in the PC dedicated to the projector. You can start
data projection on a screen immediately.
Projection of Network Contents Using the Web Browser
EasyBrowser allows you to connect the projector to the Internet and project the Web
page on a screen. And since you can display the page you need, you can also play
back the motion picture contents available on the Internet. (Java applet pages cannot
be displayed.) If you have saved the contents data in the Web server, you can
present it without using the notebook PC. And in addition you can utilize the realtime Internet information that is routinely updated.

Functions and Features of EasyMP.net
Projecting a File Residing on the Network
EasyFile allows you to open a file residing on the network and to project it on a
screen. Also, you can copy, move and delete a file on the PC.

Page 7
Using the Projector via Wireless LAN
If you insert a wireless LAN card into the PC card slot of the projector, you can
connect the projector to the network via the wireless LAN system.
Projecting a PC File Image Using the Wireless LAN
If EasyMP.net is not installed in the projector, you must connect the PC to the
projector directly, using a signal cable when projecting a PC file image on a screen.
However, if EasyMP.net has been installed in the projector, you can connect the
projector to the network and project an image shown on the network PC onto a
screen using Network Screen.
If you connect a notebook PC to the projector via the wireless LAN system, you can
project the notebook PC's data in a conference room.
The next presenter can continue without resetting the PC's connection.

Guide
Projection by the Network PC
Remote Desktop allows you to control a PC running on Windows XP Professional
from the projector by remote control operations. You can start the software and
project any file image on a screen. You can access all the software and files on the
PC, so you can start projection in a conference room without a notebook PC.

Presentation
EasyMP.net supports various types of presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint.
Presentation without Using the PC
You can install the PowerPoint program in this projector, and run PowerPoint on the
projector. In addition you can save the PowerPoint data in HTML format and
display it using EasyBrowser.
You can project the PowerPoint data in a conference room by using this projector
only (without PC).
"Use PowerPoint for Presentation" p.35
Reporting an Error Using the Mail Notification Function
If the projector connected to the network has failed or entered into alarm status,
EasyMP.net can report this to a PC by sending an e-mail message to a preset
IP address
An error in the projector can be known at a distant place when the Mail Notification
function is used.

can switch smoothley between presentation files.
Multiple People Present in a Conference
If more than one person uses a projector in a conference room one after the other,
each person can project a file using their notebook PC. If the PCs are connected to
the network in a wireless LAN system, the next presenter can start projection
without changing the cable connection.
It is necessary to install EMP NS Connection on the PC to project a PC file through
the network connection.
"Projecting PC Images (Network Screen)" in the EasyMP.net Operation Guide

Projecting Internet Pages
If the projector system is connected to the Internet, Internet pages can be presented
on the screen. A Web page can be displayed and a file can be downloaded from the
Internet during presentations.
Using a Web Page for Presentation Purposes
An Internet web page can be easily projected by EasyBrowser.
Not only a page of HTML format file but also the pages requiring various plug-ins
can be displayed. (However, Java applet pages cannot be displayed.)
A file placed on the intranet server can also be projected. If a file is created in
HTML format, it can be projected anywhere.
"Displaying a Web Page (EasyBrowser)" in the EasyMP.net Operation Guide
Displaying Multiple Web Pages Continuously
When you access a Web page, it may not be displayed immediately. To reduce
download time, you can download the pages beforehand and store the Web pages in
different windows. Up to eight windows can be stored, switched and projected one
after the other by clicking their tabs.
"Displaying a Web Page (EasyBrowser)" in the EasyMP.net Operation Guide
Getting a File from the Internet
If a file is placed on an Internet server, it can be downloaded by specifying its URL.
In this way, you don’t have to save the file to diskette or CD-ROM, and you can
start projecting at any location as long as you can connect to the Internet. To
download the file, specify its URL in EasyBrower. If EasyBrowser cannot display
the file, you can download the file and play it using EasyFile or another application.

and reports an abnormal status when it occurs. A projector problem can be detected
from a remote location.
• Up to three mail destinations can be set and an e-mail message can
be sent to these destinations simultaneously.
• If the projector has failed to start up suddenly due to a fatal error
occurring in the projector, the mail may not be sent.
• If you have selected the "Advanced1" and set the "Standby Mode" to
"Network ON" in the configuration menu of the projector, you can
monitor the projector even when it is in the standby status (when the
indicator is lit orange).

software.
