Setting up the wireless LAN
■ Functions
The following functions are available via wireless communications, when the wireless LAN
PC card and dedicated Wireless Utility software
p.50
included with this projector are used.
Note: A wireless LAN PC card except the supplied one (or recommended by
Toshiba) does not work with this product. Please ask your dealer about the
available wireless LAN PC card.
1) Displaying a computer’s screen via the projector
The computer’s desktop screen can be sent, as well as the screens of a variety of
software applications, to the projector for display.
2) Displaying an image saved on a computer via the projector
JPEG files can be sent to the projector for display.
3) Operating the projector by means of a computer
Some of the same functions available from the remote control can be performed.
■ Communication mode
This projector supports both Ad hoc and Infrastructure Communication modes.
◆ Ad hoc communication mode
This is transmission mode to communicate
between wireless LAN equipment.
Wireless communication can be performed via the
simple configurations. This function can only be
used if the projector is in range of the computer’s
wireless signals.
For security reason, confirm the specifications of your computer for the distance that
the radio wave can reach. The coverage of this projector may vary, depending on the
computer and the surrounding environment. When tested with a PC manufactured by
Toshiba with built-in wireless LAN system, the coverage is approximately 60 m with an
unobstructed path between the projector and computer placed indoors. This figure is
not guaranteed and should be considered as merely a guideline.
◆ Infrastructure communication mode
This mode allows the projector to communicate
with a wireless-LAN/wired-LAN mixed network via
an access point. (It even allows for communication
between wireless LAN devices.)
Connecting to the rest of the world via a wired LAN
or the Internet generally requires a high level of
security.
Use the appropriate transmission mode for your network environment.

■ Caution when using the wireless LAN functions
The Wireless LAN in this unit uses the 2.4 GHz waveband. If there is a similar wireless
LAN in the area, or a wireless device using the 2.4 GHz waveband, or a microwave
oven, the communication efficiency of this apparatus will be reduced, and may become
unusable, but it is not a fault. If this happens, check an area away from the current
location that will not cause radio interference to medical, industrial and public equip-
ment, and change to it, or stop using the unit.
