Parent topic: Setting Up the Software for the First Time
Connection Methods for Various Network Environments
You can choose a connection mode to suit your network environment.
Check how the projector is connected to the network system (wireless or wired) and the communication
path from the computer to the projector.
Depending on your projector, some connection methods may not be available. See your projector User'sGuide for more details.
• To connect the projector to the computer directly using wireless communication: Use Quick
Connection Mode.
18
• To connect the projector to the computer using a wireless network system: Use Advanced
Connection Mode.
• To connect the projector to the computer using a wired network system: Use Advanced Connection
Recommended Wireless Environment for Multi PC Projection
When you connect multiple devices to a projector using the Quick connection mode, we recommend
limiting the number of devices to six or less to maintain the projection performance. The number of
devices that can connect to a projector at the same time differs depending on the wireless
communication environment.
When you connect a projector to a wireless LAN and connect multiple devices wirelessly using the
Advanced connection mode, note the following recommendations.
• Set up multiple access points so that one of the access points can connect up to 10 or 20 devices. See
the access point manual for more information on the maximum number of devices that can be
connected.
• When you use multiple access points, assign a different channel to each access point, and use
different access points for the projector connection and the computer connection.
• Use a wireless LAN controller, if possible, to enhance the connection stability.
• Use an access point that supports 802.11n.
Contact your network administrator for help in setting up the wireless environment.
Note: If your projector supports a wired LAN connection, we recommend using a wired LAN connection
when you connect multiple devices to the projector.
