Similarly, when the projector is turned off by event 5, event 6 OFF will not be effective in turning it off again. But these secondary events (event 4 and event 6) will become effective if a person turns off the projector (after event 3 and before event 4) or turns on the projector (after event 5 and before event 6).

Operation

Why can't I change the controls in the setting page with web browser?

Please make sure the projector is turned on. If it is in the standby mode, the

setting is not effective to the projector. To control the projector with a web browser, the projector must be in the powered-on condition. Also, projectors registered for multi-control cannot have any controls changed if they are in standby mode. But timer and clock settings are always effective, even for projectors in standby mode.

Why does it sometimes take a lot of time to complete the page dis-

play?

The display speed of the page depends on the network environment in which

both the projector and computer are placed. It may take much time to complete the page display if network traffic is heavy. Please consult your network administrator. By changing the preference of your web browser to “not show pictures”, you may have page display more quickly at the heavy network traffic. Please see the browser’s on-line help for further information. Also you can select the Text mode for displaying pages quickly (☞ p.22).

Q&A

I use many of the projectors in the network. How can I use names of

the projectors to recognize each projector instead of IP addresses?

You can manage the projectors with nicknames instead of the IP address.

Please see chapter “Controlling the Multi-Projectors” for further information

(☞ p.55). By registering the projector name and IP address with the DNS server, it can be accessed with the nickname from the any computer referred to the DNS server. Please consult your network administrator (☞ p.28, 57).

Do not configure the same IP address to the network equipment in the same network group. Each piece of equipment must be assigned a unique IP address. If the IP address is set [192.168.x.x], the Subnet Mask should be set [255.255.255.0] for example.

Rule2

The start address [xxx.xxx.xxx.0] and the last address [xxx.xxx.xxx.255] of the IP address must not be assigned to any other equipment. These address numbers are reserved.

Rule3

The IP address must correlate to a network number. If network numbers are different between the equipment, they cannot establish communications each other. In this case, the router is placed in the networks to make the routing.

What is the MAC address assigned to the Network Board?

The MAC address is indicated on the case back as the below.
