Notes to Users Viewing 3D Images
Pay attention to the following points when viewing images using 3D glasses with the projector:
• You need 3D glasses to view 3D images. The projector uses DLP Link technology to synchronize
with 3D glasses. You need to use the optional 3D glasses that support DLP Link (PJ 3D Glasses
Type 2).
• How 3D images are viewed may vary according to the individual.
• Do not use 3D glasses for viewing any material other than 3D images.
• Before viewing 3D images, make sure to read the manuals provided with your 3D glasses and 3D
compatible content.
• Avoid viewing 3D images for a long period of time. Take a break of 15 minutes or longer after
every hour of viewing.
• If you feel sick while viewing 3D images, stop viewing them. If you continue to feel sick, consult a
doctor.
7
Page 10
• When viewing 3D images in a room where an LED lighting system or fluorescent lights are used,
you may feel that the light in the room flickers. If this is the case, dim the lights until you do not
notice any flickers, or turn off the lights.
• If you or any member of your family has a history of light-sensitive seizures, consult a doctor before
viewing 3D images.
• To view 3D images, sit in front of the screen so that your eyes are parallel and level with the screen.
• Viewing 3D images from a place that is too close to the screen may result in eye strain. The
distance between the screen and you should be at least three times the height of the screen.
• Adult supervision is required for children using 3D glasses.
• Viewing 3D images is not recommended for children under 6 years old. It may negatively affect
development of their vision. Consult a doctor before using 3D glasses.

1. Preparations for Using the Projector
This chapter explains the names and functions of the different parts of the projector and remote control,
and how to use them. It also explains how to position the projector and how to connect it to other
equipment.
Precautions for Using the Projector
• Do not use any power sources other than those that match the specifications shown in this
manual. 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 look into the projection window or vent when the machine 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 machine or an accident.
• Do not place the power cord and connection cable in a way that might cause someone to trip
and fall. The machine 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.
13
Page 16
1. Preparations for Using the Projector
• 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.
• 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 machine failure. To temporarily
suspend projection, select the AV mute function. To suspend longer, turn off the machine.
• Do not increase the volume unless you are listening while increasing the volume. Also, lower
the volume before turning off the power, because a loud sound may be emitted when the
power is turned on and cause hearing damage.
• Power Source
• (mainly Europe and Asia)
220–240 V, 1.7 A or more, 50/60Hz
• (mainly North America)

This chapter explains the settings for using the projector via a network. This chapter also explains the
operations that use QuickProjection.
Before Connecting to a Network
Connecting an Ethernet Cable
• Do not place the power cord and connection cable in a way that might cause someone to trip
and fall. The machine might fall over and cause an injury.
The projector is compatible with 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet interfaces.
Status of the network connection
You can confirm the status of the network connection by the patterns in which the LEDs on the
Ethernet interface light up. If the projector is not connected to a network, no LEDs light up.
1. When 1000BASE-T is active (orange and green LEDs light up)
2. When 100BASE-TX is active (orange LED lights up)
3. When 10BASE-T is active (green LED lights up)
65
Page 68
CZE122
5. Using the Projector via a Network
1. Insert the Ethernet cable into the LAN port.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a network device such as a hub.
• Use an Ethernet cable that is shielded.
Precautions for 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.
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.
66
Page 69
Connecting the Projector to a Network
Connecting the Projector to a Network
To connect the projector to a network, you must specify network settings such as an IP address. The
required settings differ depending on the network environment and how you use the projector.
You can configure the required settings easily by using Network Setting Wizard. For details about how
to open Network Setting Wizard, see page 68 "Opening Network Setting Wizard".
To connect to a wired LAN
Connect an Ethernet cable to the projector, and then configure the network settings in [Wired LAN]
on Network Setting Wizard. For details about how to configure the wired LAN network settings,
see page 68 "Configuring the Wired LAN Settings".
To connect to a wireless LAN in infrastructure mode
In infrastructure mode, the projector can communicate with networks in which both wireless and
wired LAN devices are connected via a wireless LAN access terminal. It is necessary to use greater
security since all communication is via a network. Use infrastructure mode in environments in which
a wireless LAN has already been configured.
Configure the network settings in [Wireless LAN (Infrastructure)] on Network Setting Wizard. The
setting method differs depending on the network environment.
• Configuring the settings by Simple Wireless LAN Setup
If the access point is compliant with the simple wireless LAN setup function, you can configure
the network settings easily. This function acquires the wireless LAN settings registered in the
access point, and configures those settings for the projector automatically. You can configure
the settings without entering the SSID and the network key manually. For details, see
page 69 "Configuring the settings by Simple Wireless LAN Setup".
• Configuring the settings manually
You can configure the network settings by selecting the network to connect to from the
available network list. Up to 10 networks are displayed in the list in radio field intensity order.
If you want to connect to a network that is not displayed in the list or is not broadcasting its
SSID, enter the SSID manually. For details, see page 70 "Configuring the settings
manually".
To connect to a wireless LAN in ad hoc mode
In ad hoc mode, the projector can communicate with the computer directly, and not via an access
point. No other equipment is required, so this mode is suited for locations that have no network
environment. As the radio wave range is limited, use an office or conference room with a good line
of sight.
Configure the network settings in [Wireless LAN (Adhoc)] on Network Setting Wizard. For details
about how to configure the network settings for a wireless LAN in ad hoc mode, see page 71

For details about the settings for using the projection server function, see page 76 "Using the
Projection Server Function". For details about the settings for using the DLNA server function, see
page 78 "Using the DLNA Server Function".
• The supported video file types are compliant with the projector's own specifications. They are not
compliant with the DLNA 1.5 guidelines.
• The maximum number of files that can be displayed in the list is 512 per folder.
75
Page 78
5. Using the Projector via a Network
• Characters that can be used for file names and folder names are single-byte letters and numbers
and characters used in the language specified in [Language] under [Default Settings 2]. If
characters for languages other than the language specified are used, the file name or folder name
will not be displayed properly.
• If the total number of characters in the file name and the path exceeds 255, the file cannot appear
on the list.
• Data in a folder that is stored six levels or more into a hierarchy cannot be accessed.
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.
The operating environment of the projection server function is described below:
• 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
• Windows Server 2012 Standard and IIS8
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 website.
• Alias name
An alias name is required when the projector accesses the virtual directory.
76
The settings must be configured in [Projection Server Settings] under [Network Application
Settings]. For details, see page 77 "Connecting the projector to the projection server".
Page 79
Using the Server Function
• 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.
If you restrict access to the projection server with an access number, create a folder whose
name is the number that you specify as the 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.
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.
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
Connecting the projector to the projection server
Configure the settings for the projection server in [Projection Server Settings] under [Network Application
Settings] beforehand.
• 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 No.] in [Access Restriction Type], add "/{n}" at the end of the Server URL.
Specify other settings in [Projection Server Settings], if necessary.
• To use the projection server function, you must specify the network settings in advance. For details,
see page 67 "Connecting the Projector to a Network".
77
Page 80
5. Using the Projector via a Network
• For details about how to change the settings, see page 103 "Changing the Settings". For details
about the setting items, see page 131 "Network Application Settings Menu".
Using the DLNA Server Function
The projector is compatible with DLNA. DLNA is the guideline for sharing content on a network.
Therefore, the projector can access DLNA-compatible devices such as file servers, tablet computers, or
smartphones and project JPEG files stored on them.
To access to DLNA-compatible devices from the projector, the projector and the DLNA-compatible
devices must be connected to a network. For details about how to connect the projector to a network,
see page 67 "Connecting the Projector to a Network".
To project files on the DLNA-compatible device, you must configure the file sharing settings on the
device. For details about how to use DLNA-compatible devices, see the manuals provided with the
DLNA-compatible devices.
• The projector is certified to DLNA 1.5 guidelines for still images. If [DLNA Certification Mode] in
[Network Application Settings] is specified as [Enable], the projector works as a DLNA-certified
device and video playback is restricted. If this setting is specified as [Disable], the projector can
also project MPEG files.
• Depending on the device used for this function, you may need to install a DLNA application on the
device.
