Preparing the Remote Control
If the projector is connected to a network, projector error notification mails can be
received and the projector can be controlled via a computer. Settings related to the net-
work connection can be made from either the projector side (P172) or computer side
(P177).
Depending on the method of network connection, preparation on the computer side may
be necessary. The following is an explanation of preparation on the computer side.
Connection Methods
Connect the projector to the computer via LAN.
• When the [Network function] setting of the projector is set to [Off] (Network Connections
is disabled), switch it to [On] to enable it (P172).
• Referring to page 141, check that the projector IP address does not overlap with other
computers that are on the same LAN. When you set the IP address of the projector, fol-
low the instruction on page 177 on the web screen or refer to page 175.
• When you connect the computer to the network for the first time, it is also necessary to
perform settings on the computer. In this case, consult the network administrator
regarding the necessary settings.
In a network environment where a DHCP server is operating, choose [On] on the projector [DHCP]
screen to enable the DHCP function and connect it (P175).
