NOTE:
• To use the projector in a network, consult with your network administrator about network settings.
• The display’s or button’s response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your network.
Should this happen, consult your network administrator. The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid
intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and repeat. If you still can’t get any response, turn off and back on the projector.
• If the PROJECTOR NETWORK SETTINGS screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to refresh your web browser
(or clear the cache).
• This device uses “JavaScript” and “Cookies” and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The setting method will vary
depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information provided in your software.

Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and
the setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been
set will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may
not be reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.
