SETTING THE PROJECTOR'S IP ADDRESS
factory default IP address of 0.0.0.0 triggers the network's DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server function to automatically assign an IP address that is valid and unique for use on that network.
Depending on the network, this DHCP-assigned IP address usually remains stable for a single session, but may
change with subsequent power-ups and logins. On some networks, the address will remain stable from session
to session. In all cases, the projector's IP address and port appear in the
Settings
secondary menu. See
If a projector's IP address is anything other than 0.0.0.0 (shown as 000.000.000.000 in the Ethernet Settings
menu) upon connection to an Ethernet network, or if DHCP is not available on the network, the automatic
DHCP server function for supplying a valid and unique IP address to the projector is disabled. Instead, a
specific and static IP address must be defined in projector memory. Enter the new address in the Ethernet
Settings submenu, or send to the projector via a serial command. The IP address will be in effect until it is
changed again, or until the DHCP check box is re-enabled for use with a DHCP server on the network.
NOTE: Only the port and IP address of the projector can be changed. The subnet mask is fixed
(255.255.255.0).
CHANGING THE PORT#:
the projector be changed from its default of 3002. If so, enter a new port number in the
menu or include the new port# in an XIP serial command sent to the projector. It is highly recommended not to
use a port# below 1024, as these ports are typically reserved for and used by well known applications.
SUBNET MASK AND DEFAULT GATEWAY:
when DHCP is enabled. If a static IP is being used, it must be assigned before the subnet mask. The Default
Gateway is an optional router device used to send and receive data outside the subnet.
