Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser (except NP405
and NP305)
Overview
Connecting the projector to a network allows the Alert Mail setting (→ page 50) and the projector control from a
computer via the network.
To perform the projector control from a web browser, you must have an exclusive application installed on your com-
puter.
The IP address and subnet mask of the projector can be set on the Network Setting screen of the web browser by
using an HTTP server function. Please be sure to use "Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0" or a higher version for the web
browser. (This device uses "JavaScript" and "Cookies" and the browser should be set to accept these functions. The
setting method will vary depending on the version of browser. Please refer to the help files and the other information
provided in your software.)
Access is gained to the HTTP server function by starting the Web browser on the computer via the network connected
to the projector and enter the following URL.
•
Network Setting
http://<the projector's IP address>/index.html
•
Alert Mail Setting
http://<the projector's IP address>/lanconfig.html
TIP:
• The default IP address is "192.168.0.10".
• The exclusive application can be downloaded from our website.
NOTE:
• If the PROJECTOR NETWORK SETTINGS screen does not appear in the web browser, press the Ctrl+F5 keys to refresh your web
browser (or clear the cache).
• The display's or button's response can be slowed down or operation may not be accepted depending the settings of your network.
Should this happen, consult your network administrator.
The projector may not respond if its buttons are repeatedly pressed in rapid intervals. Should this happen, wait a moment and
repeat. If you still can't get any response, turn off and back on the projector.
Preparation Before Use
Connect the projector to a commercially available LAN cable before engaging in browser operations. (→ page 24)
Operation with a browser that uses a proxy server may not be possible depending on the type of proxy server and the
setting method. Although the type of proxy server will be a factor, it is possible that items that have actually been set
will not be displayed depending on the effectiveness of the cache, and the contents set from the browser may not be
reflected in operation. It is recommended that a proxy server not be used unless it is unavoidable.
Handling of the Address for Operation via a Browser
Regarding the actual address that is entered for the address or entered to the URL column when operation of the pro-
jector is via a browser, the host name can be used as it is when the host name corresponding to the IP address of the
projector has been registered to the domain name server by a network administrator, or the host name corresponding
to the IP address of the projector has been set in the "HOSTS" file of the computer being used.
Example 1:
When the host name of the projector has been set to "pj.nec.co.jp", access is gained to the network
setting by specifying
http://pj.nec.co.jp/index.html
for the address or the entry column of the URL.
Example 2:
When the IP address of the projector is "192.168.73.1", access is gained to the mail alert settings by
specifying
http://192.168.73.1/index.html
for the address or the entry column of the URL.
