and insert the EPSON 802.11b card in the projector.

network settings on your Macintosh match the settings on the

projector.

1. From the Apple pull-down menu, select System Preferences.

Settings window:

2. Under Port Configurations, select AirPort for a wireless

network or Built-in Ethernet for a wired network.

3. Click Apply Now. Then close the window.

not support Macintosh

Channel Ad Hoc mode.

■If the projector has been assigned an ESSID name, click the

communication status icon and select the projector’s ESSID

name from the menu.

■If you are using the wired LAN Connection mode, click Turn

AirPort Off.

Using EMP NS Connect for Wireless

Projecting

Your projector now includes version 1.20 of EMP NS Connection for

Windows (equivalent to version 1.0 for Macintosh). If you are using a

Macintosh, the screens will look different from those shown in this

section, but the same features are available.

Follow the instructions in your Projector User’s Guide to install the

software, start EasyMP, and set up your projector and computer in

either Ad Hoc mode (computer to computer) or Access Point mode.

Then follow these steps:

1. Make sure you’ve installed your wireless 802.11b card. Then do

one of the following:

■Windows: select EMP NS Connection from the Start menu.

■Macintosh: double-click the EMP NS Connection icon in

your Applications folder.

note

If you see a message during

installation that the

EPSON GDI Monitor

Driver has not passed

Windows Logo testing, click

Continue Anyway.

Bernslip.fm Page 6 Friday, December 12, 2003 3:02 PM

The first time you start NS Connection in Windows, you see a

window asking you to select your network.

2. Select the IP address for your computer’s network adapter card

and click OK.

You see the screen below. (If you have previously started NS

Connection, or you’re using a Macintosh, this is the first screen

you see.)

If the connection is working properly, you see your projector

listed. If you have additional EPSON projectors on the network,

they are also listed, along with their status.

note

If you don’t see your network

adapter’s IP address, allow a

minute for it to appear. If

your access point uses

DHCP, sometimes it takes a

minute for the server to pick

up the IP address.

note

If you don’t see the Switch

network window and you

want to change to a different

network adapter, click the

Extension button. In

Windows, click Switch

LAN. On Macintosh, click

Set up network.

Select projector

This box indicates

projector status

Bernslip.fm Page 7 Friday, December 12, 2003 3:02 PM

The color of the status icon indicates the projector’s status:

■Gray: the projector is not connected

■Red: the projector is connected to another computer

■Green: the projector is connected to your computer.

3. If you don’t see your projector, check the following:

■Make sure your wireless signal is strong enough to establish a

connection (see your computer documentation for details).

■Make sure your computer’s SSID matches the ESSID you

assigned to the projector (for example, CONF ROOM).

Remember that both the SSID and ESSID are case-sensitive.

■If you are using Access Point mode, make sure the projector

and your computer are on the same subnet.

■Make sure the projector and your computer are

communicating on the same channel.

■Restart your computer and start NS Connection again.

■If you still don’t see your projector and you are using Access

Point mode, follow the instructions in “Connecting in IP

Connect Mode” on page 11 to connect to the projector.

4. Once the name of your projector appears, select it and click

Connect. If more than one projector is listed, you can select up to

four projectors and connect to them at the same time.

If the selected projector is already being used by another person,

you can still connect to it; however, doing so automatically

disconnects the other user.

If you set up the projector to prompt you for a keyword before

connecting, you see this screen:

note

The status icon colors may

be easier to see on the

projected image than on the

computer.

note

If you want your

presentation encrypted,

click Extension and select

Use encrypted

communication.

This step enhances security

but decreases the data

transmission speed.

Enter keyword

5. Type in the four-digit number displayed on the EasyMP Network

screen and click OK.

Once the connection is established, you see your computer’s

image transmitted to the projector, and a floating control bar:

6. If necessary, drag the control bar out of the way, or minimize it.

7. When done with your presentation, click Disconnect on the

control bar.

Using the Control Bar

Clicking one of the buttons on the control bar may cause a submenu

to appear above the control bar. For example, clicking the button

displays the following submenu:

brightness for specific environments: sRGB for computer displays

Clicking the button displays the following screen and allows you

to modify the zoom magnification and position:

When you’re done making changes, click the arrow in the upper right

corner to close the menu.

Giving a Wireless Presentation

When projecting a PowerPoint®presentation, you can use the Page

down and Page up buttons on the remote control to move through

your slideshow. This works the same way as when you connect your

computer to the projector with the USB cable.
