Installation

Notice about system construction

For installation of multiple projectors into the same network with Network Board.

Do not install multiple projectors with Network Boards that have their default network settings to the same network. The use of the Network Boards which have the default IP address set to the same network settings will cause IP addresses to collide and create a malfunction. When you install multiple projectors into the same network, configure the network with the following steps.

1. Change the IP address from the default IP address. To change the IP address, use the network setting menu on the projector. Please see chapter “Network Configuration” on page 15 for further information.

2. Make sure that there is no network equipment set with the same IP address in the network, and then connect to the network.

3. When installing other projectors, follow the above steps to change the IP address and connect to the network.

In case of installing the projector with Network Board into the network constructed with the DHCP/BOOTP server.

This Network Board does not support the DHCP/BOOTP server. The static IP address must be configured by the manual. To use this product in this network environment, set it up so that the DHCP/BOOTP server does not assign the IP address configured to this product for another device on the network. Please consult your network administrator for further information.
