Once the "Multiple Control" mode has been identified we can now proceed to the "Projector
Setting " menu option under the "File" menu. (Refer to Figure 5)

Figure 5

From the "Projector Setting" Mode we identify the "ID" Number which will be used by the projector.
(Refer to Figure 6)

This "ID" number is selected and inputted on the Projector from the projector menu under "Options
2" (Refer to ID number Setup on page 4). This "ID" number is an additional option to help the enduser 
/ customer to better identify, monitor and control Sharp projectors which are attached to a Network.

Identify "Port" as LAN and Input the IP address. (Refer to Figure 6)

NOTE: IP address must be obtained from you IT / MIS Department
