AUTION
In normal conditions, the network detection takes few seconds. This means that the total time needed to go
from power ON to Standby mode is only a few seconds. This value can vary depending on the speed of the
network connection.
But when the DHCP setting of the projector is set to Yes and the network does not allow the projector to obtain
an IP address from the DHCP server, the startup time will be delayed by upto five minutes. After this time, a
time-out occurs if the network detection fails, and the projector starts up without any network connection.

What can be done?

These settings are used to set the Ethernet Communication parameters.
Following parameters are available :
