8.1.2 Network functionality
What can be done ?
The network functionality allows the projector to perform several network functions thanks to network features which are required in
most corporate environments:
• Control & Management : wireless/wired (remote) control and monitoring of the projector(s) thanks to a user-friendly GUI (the
Client software).
• Diagnostics : diagnostics through a user-friendly GUI and automatic E-mail sending.
• Easy file (MS PowerPoint,...) manipulation and projection using the DropZone interface.
• Remote control of the projector by allowing the desktop to be shared over the network (the DropZone interface).
• Streaming media : The pr
ojector’s onboard computer is streaming video data ready, i.e. allowing the decoding of video stream-
ing data coming from a server via the LAN.
