when connecting to it from your computer.
If you need to rename it, highlight the Clear button next to
Projector name , then press Enter on the remote control to clear
the text box. Then highlight the text box and press Enter . The
outline of the text box turns green to indicate you are in input

button up to select individual letters in
alphabetical order, or down to select letters in reverse order; then
tilt the
button to the right to move to the next character
position. When done typing the new name, press Enter .
5. To enable your computer to find the projector on the network,
select the appropriate Ad hoc mode settings :
■ Select ESSID ad hoc if your network card supports an SSID
or ESSID identifier (see page 75). Then highlight the ESSID
text box, press Enter , and enter a name (for example, “CONF
ROOM”). When you’re done, press Enter . Note that the
ESSID is case-sensitive (if you enter the name in uppercase on
the projector, you must type it the same way on the computer
connecting to the projector).
■ Select Channel ad hoc if your network card supports using
channels instead of ESSID names to identify devices on the
network. Then select a channel number in the
Channel text
box and press Enter . (Channel ad hoc mode is not supported
for Macintosh.)
6. If you want to create a password for remote access to the
projector, highlight the Password for WEB control checkbox,
press Enter , and enter a password of up to 8 alphanumeric
characters. When you’re done, press Enter .

are in the same room as the projector can access it, turn Projector

displays a randomized four-digit number or “keyword” on the
screen. When prompted by NS Connection, you can enter the
keyword on your computer to connect (see page 92).

EasyMP Network screen
whenever you start EasyMP,
and enter that keyword on
your computer. You can’t
connect using a previous
keyword.
