Ethernet Communications
To add the projector to an existing Ethernet network with other equipment such as
controllers and other projectors, connect standard CAT5 Ethernet cable between your
Ethernet controller (or hub) and the Ethernet port on the side of the projector.
CONNECTING TO A PC: If you are connecting the Ethernet port directly to a PC (rather
than a network or hub), make sure to use a crossover Ethernet cable. Keep in mind
that an Ethernet link cannot be used for downloading software upgrades to the
projector—use RS232.
Figure 2.16. Ethernet Connection
Upon connection to an Ethernet network, the projector’s factory default IP address of
0.0.0.0.0 will automatically enable the DHCP function (if available on the network) to
assign a new IP address that is valid and unique for that network. Or, if there is no
DHCP function available on the network (or if a specific static IP address for the
projector is preferred or required), you can set the address in the Ethernet Settings
menu or via an ASCII serial command.
