1. Preparations for Using the Projector

Connecting the Power Cord

• Do not use any power sources other than those that match the specifications shown. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not use any frequencies other than those that match the specifications shown. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

• The supplied power cord is for use with this machine only. Do not use it with other appliances. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock.

• It is dangerous to handle the power cord plug with wet hands. Doing so could result in electric shock.

• Do not place the power cord and connection cable in a way that might cause someone to trip and fall. The product might fall over and cause an injury.

• Push the power plug all the way into the power outlet. Do not use a power outlet with a loose connection. Doing so may result in heat buildup. Plug the power cord in the correct direction into the base. If they are not plugged in correctly, it could result in smoke, fire, or electric shock.

• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord. Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.

CLB028

Connecting the Power Cord

1. Insert the connector of the power cord set into the AC In socket on the right side of the

projector.

2. Insert the power plug into a power outlet.

1. Preparations for Using the Projector

2. Projecting an Image

This chapter explains the procedure for projecting an image.

Basic Operations

• Do not look into the projection window or vent when the product is on. The bright light may damage your eyes. Be especially careful in an environment with children.

• Do not place low heat resistant material near the exhaust vents. Hot air may come from the exhaust vents, resulting in damage to the product or an accident.

• Do not block the projection light when it is on. If you do so, the part that is blocking the projection light may get quite hot and deform, deteriorate or cause a burn or fire. The reflected light may make the projection window hot and cause a product failure. To temporarily suspend projection, select the mute function. To suspend longer, turn off the product.

• Unplug the power cord if the projector will not be used for an extended period of time.

• If the lamp is used for an extended period of time, it may not light up or the image may become dark. If this happens, replace the lamp. In some rare cases, the lamp's brightness may vary slightly due to the characteristics of a lamp.

• The projector supports various RGB signals, but signals that are not WXGA signals are expanded or compressed when displayed and the image quality is slightly decreased. We recommend setting the computer's output to WXGA to get better image quality.

• The motion of images in videos projected using the DVD software on a computer may seem unnatural.

• Connect the projector and equipment before using the projector. For details, see p.28 "Connecting Equipment to the Projector".

• If [Key Lock] in [Default Settings] is specified as [On], you cannot operate the projector from its control panel. Use the remote control.

• If you press a button that is disabled, the projector beeps and an error icon appears on the screen.

• If [Beep] in [Default Settings] is specified as [Off], the projector does not beep.

Connecting Using a Wireless LAN

• Do not use a wireless LAN if there is electromagnetic interference from other equipment. Doing so may cause an accident due to the other equipment malfunctioning from the electromagnetic interference.

The projector has a built-in wireless LAN board.

Wireless uses radio waves to exchange information instead of an Ethernet cable. The wireless LAN radio waves pass through barriers such as walls within a fixed area, so the following problems may occur:

Leak of Personal Information

• Information such as IDs, passwords, credit card numbers, and the contents of e-mails, etc., may be stolen by a third party.

Illegal Access to the Network

• Data and systems may be corrupted or manipulated by a virus.

• An imposter may access information illegally.

• Confidential information may be accessed illegally.

To minimize the possibility of these problems occurring, it is recommended to check the functions built into the wireless LAN devices, such as the projector and wireless LAN access points, and to specify security settings.

• If the wireless network reception is poor, the connection may be interrupted or disabled. If the wireless reception of the projector and access points is poor, try the following:

• Move the projector and access points closer to each other.

• Make sure there is a clear line of sight between the access point and the projector.

• Make sure the access point and projector are close to each other, and move devices that emit radio signals such as microwave ovens further away.

Using the Projection Server Function

The projector accesses the network server to project JPEG files saved on the server.

You do not need to carry a storage device or computer that has the files to be used. Therefore, it is useful to protect information.

Accessing folders on the server can be controlled by registering an access number.

Configuring the Network Server

A network server on which IIS (Internet Information Services) is installed can be used as a projection server.

Projection server operations have been verified for the following operating systems:

• Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard (32-bit version) SP2 and IIS 6

IIS 6 is not provided with a URL rewrite module. Use a URL rewrite module provided by a third party.

• Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (64-bit version) SP1 and IIS 7

Install the URL Rewrite Module that can be downloaded from Microsoft Download Center. If the ASP (Active Server Pages) Execution Environment is not available on the network server, install the ASP module.

The following settings are required on the network server that is used as a projection server:

Creating a virtual directory

Create a directory (virtual directory) that the projector accesses on the network server.

Register the alias name and directory path of the virtual directory by following the wizard instructions. For detailed procedures, see the Microsoft Web site.

• Alias name

An alias name is required when the projector accesses the virtual directory.

The settings must be configured in [Projection Server] under [Network Application Settings]. For details, see p.68 "Configuring the Projector".

• Directory path

This is a path for the directory in which files projected by the projector are stored.

To store files converted by JPEG Conversion Tool on the network server, register the directory path. For details, see JPEG Conversion Tool Help.

Storing the folder management file for the projection server

The folder management file for the projection server is stored in the "Projection Server" folder on the supplied CD-ROM. Copy the folder management file to the virtual directory on the network server.

3. Using the Projector via a Network

Registering a URL rewrite rule

Using a URL rewrite module, register a rule to rewrite "original characters" to "rewritten characters":

• Original characters: ^alias name of the virtual directory/(.*)

• Rewritten characters: /alias name of the virtual directory/name of the folder management file

If you use IIS 7, and if the alias name is "ABC" and the folder management file name is "xyz.asp", the characters become the following:

• Original characters: ^ABC/(.*)

• Rewritten characters: /ABC/xyz.asp

Configuring the Projector

Configure the settings for the projection server in [Projection Server] under [Network Application Settings] beforehand.

• Validate Projection by Projection Server

Specify to [Enable].

• Server URL

Enter the projection server URL and the alias name of the virtual directory in the following format:

Projection server URL/alias name/{n}

If the projection server URL is "http://hostname" and the alias name is "document", enter "http:// hostname/document".

An IP address can be used as the projection server URL.

If you select [Access Number] in [Access Restriction Type], add "/{n}" at the end of the Server URL.

Specify other settings in [Projection Server], if necessary.

• To use the projection server function, you must specify the network settings in advance. For details, see p.53 "Connecting the Projector to a Network".

• For details about how to change the settings, see p.73 "Using the Menu Screen". For details about the setting items, see p.103 "Network Application Settings".

Projecting Files that Are Stored on the Server

Store files to be projected using the projector in the virtual directory on the network server.

If you select [Access Number] in [Access Restriction Type], create a folder whose name is the number that you specify as Access Number. After this, store the files to be projected in the folder. To project the files stored in the folder, enter the access number when accessing the projection server.

A projected image can be controlled using the remote control.
