Cautions on Usage

Cautions on Usage
A wireless LAN card is not meant for use with facilities or equipment involving the safeguard of human life, such as medical equipment, nuclear facilities or equipment, aeronautical or space equipment, transportation facilities or equipment, etc., or with facilities or equipment requiring high levels of reliability. Do not use the card in such cases.
Do not use a wireless LAN card near cardiac pacemakers.
Do not use a wireless LAN card near medical equipment. Doing so may cause electromagnetic
interference with the medical equipment, possible leading to death.
Do not disassemble or modify a wireless LAN card in any way. Doing so could lead to fire or electric shock.
Do not use a wireless LAN card in wet or moist places, such as in bathrooms or near humidifiers. Doing so could lead to fire, electric shock or malfunctions.
To prevent damage due to static electricity, eliminate any static electricity from your body before touching a wireless LAN card.
Static electricity from the human body may damage a wireless LAN card. Before touching the card, touch an aluminum window frame, a door knob, or some other metal object around you to eliminate the static electricity.
The radio waves used by a wireless LAN card pass through the wood or glass used in normal homes (but not through window panes with built-in metallic mesh). The radio waves do not pass through iron reinforcing bars, metal or concrete, so a wireless LAN card cannot be used for communicating through walls or floors made with these materials.

1-2. Desktop Control Utility 1.0

Desktop Control Utility 1.0 is software that operates the desktop screen of a personal computer at a remote location from the projector by using a network.
A commercially available USB mouse is connected to the projector to operate the personal computer.
Suppose, for example, a PowerPoint file to be presented in a conference is saved to a personal computer in your office. If this personal computer is connected to the projector in the conference room with LAN when the conference is held, the desktop screen of the personal computer in your office (Windows XP/Windows 2000) can be projected and the PowerPoint file can be presented by operating the projector. In other words the personal computer does not need to be brought into the conference room.

Important
You can use the Desktop Control Utility 1.0 to operate a personal computer located in a separate room from the projector over a network. Therefore, care must be exercised to prevent any third party from viewing the screen of your personal computer (important documents), copying files, or turning off the power. NEC assumes no liability for any loss or damages arising from information leak or system failure while you are using Desktop Control Utility 1.0.
In the Windows operating system, click [Control Panel] [Performance and Maintenance] [Power Options] [System Standby] [Never]. This will disconnect LAN connection
when the personal computer goes in the standby mode while the Desktop Control Utility
1.0 is being used.
The screen saver function is off while Desktop Control Utility 1.0 is running.

4. Attaching Wireless LAN Card
Insert the wireless LAN card into the PC card slot on the rear panel of the projector.
Important
The wireless LAN card must be inserted into the PC card slot in the correct direction. It cannot be inserted in the reverse direction. If the card is inserted in the reverse direction with excessive force applied, the pins in the projector and the PC card slot may break. Be sure to insert the wireless LAN card with its label facing up.
Before touching the LAN card, touch a metallic object (such as a door knob or aluminum window frame) to discharge the static electricity from your body.
Always insert or remove the wireless LAN card when the main power is turned off. Failure to do so may cause projector malfunction or damage to the wireless LAN card. If the projector will not work correctly, turn off the projector, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on.
