4.6.4 Network connection
Only 10 Base-T connection
What can be done?
When the optional network connection is installed, the projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) (Ethernet). Once
installed and connected to the LAN, users are capable of accessing the projector from any location, inside or outside their company
network from a standard web browser. The projector acts as web server
and generates a web site with all functions of the projector
listed. Via an internet explorer 4.0 or higher, or a Netscape communicator, the user can insert the correct IP-address of the projector
and access the webpages. Once the web site is accessed, it is possible to check and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote
diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then be
come a daily and very simple operation. The network connectivity
permits to detect potential errors and consequently improve the time to servicing.
