Connecting To A Network - NEC NP1000 User Manual

Connecting to a Network

The NP2000/NP1000 comes standard with a LAN port (RJ-45) which provides a LAN connection using a LAN cable.
Placing the optional wireless LAN card (NWL-100*) in the PC card slot of the projector also provides a wireless LAN
connection. To use a LAN connection, you are required to assign an IP address to the projector. For setting the LAN
mode, see page 89 (From the menu, select [Setup] → [Installation] → [LAN Mode])
With the LAN connection, two features are available: Projector control and Picture transmission.
Projector control feature
With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can control (power on/off, input select, etc.) and receive information
from the projector over the network using a computer. The following two methods are available:
* Using the HTTP Server feature on the projector. (→ page 51)
* Using PC Control Utility 3.0 from the supplied User Supportware 3 CD-ROM.
Picture transmission feature
With the wired or wireless LAN connection, you can send images and slides from a personal computer to the projector

With the USB mouse connected to the projector, you can also operate the desktop screen on your Windows PC
connected to the LAN or the wireless LAN.
