[About IP address]
■ Setting manually
The Network address portion of the IP address setting on your computer must
be the same as the setting on the projector. Also, the entire IP address on the
computer must not overlap with that of the other devices on the same network,
including the projector.
The projector’s settings are as follows.
IP address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
(Network address: 192.168.1 in this case)
Therefore, specify the computer’s IP address as follows.
IP address: 192.168.1.xxx (xxx shows decimal number.)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
(Network address: 192.168.1 in this case)
For example
Select from 1 to 254 for “xxx” not duplicating with any other equipments.
In this case, since the IP address of the projector is “192.168.1.254”, specify a
setting between 1 to 253 for the computer.
• “0.0.0.0” cannot be set to the IP address.
• The projector’s IP address can be changed by using the configuration utility
via a web browser. (

)
• If the projector and the computer exist in the same network (i.e., same
network address), you can leave the default gateway field blank.
• When the projector and the computer exist in different networks, the default
gateway must be set. Consult to the network administrator in detail.
NOTE
■ Setting automatically
When a DHCP server exists in the connected network, it is possible to assign an
IP address to the projector and computer automatically.
* DHCP is abbreviation for “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol” and has the
function to provide necessary setting for network like IP address from server to
client. A server that has DHCP function is called DHCP server.
