Using Network Functions
IMPORTANT: To enable network functions at all times (even when the
projector is powered off), the Standby Power Save setting in the projector’s
Setup menu must be set to Normal (not Maximum).
Projector network functions include:
• Configuring and controlling the projector via a web browser.
• Failure and warning alerts via email.
• Projector Management via SNMP.
• Controlling the projector via Scheduling.
NOTE: P
rojector web pages and emails sent by the projector are always
displayed in English language.
Before using the network functions
To use the network functions of the projector, the projector must be
co
nfigured to suit your network. Consult with your network administrator
before connecting the projector to your network; incorrect network
configuration of the projector may cause problems on your network.

Properly connect projector to the network, then configure the following
se
ttings.
If Using a Network with DHCP Enabled:
3 Use the projector's remote control or keypad to select the Network item
in the projector's Setup menu.
4 If DHCP is off, select it to turn it on.
If Using a Network that Does Not have DHCP Enabled:
1 Use the projector's remote control or keypad to select the Network item
in the projector's Setup menu.

Configuring and Controlling the Projector via a Web Browser
You can adjust or control the projector via a network from a web browser on
a
computer that is connected to the same network as the projector.

th
e network and connected to AC power (and if you want to access the
web pages even when the projector is powered off, make sure the
Standby Power Save setting in the projector’s Setup menu is set to Nor-
mal).
• If the projector's Standby Power Save setting (in its Setup menu) is set
t
o Maximum, then the web interface (and other network functions) will
only be available when the projector is powered on.
• JavaScript must be enabled in your browser to use the projector web
pages properly. If JavaScript is disabled, see the Help files for your web
browser for details on how to enable it.
• If no operations are performed in the web browser for approximately
ten minutes, the system will automatically log you off.
