This chapter explains how to connect the computer and the projector via a network, and the procedure for displaying images from your computer's screen with the projector.

Two Connection Modes

There are two methods of connecting a computer and the projector via a network by using EasyMP Network Projection.
Quick Connection Mode (Only when the optional Wireless LAN unit is installed)

Quick Connection Mode is only available when you install the optional Wireless LAN unit in the projector. Quick Connection Mode temporarily assigns the projector's SSID to a computer creating an ad hoc connection, and restores the computer's network settings after disconnecting.s p.12

Advanced Connection Mode

Advanced Connection Mode is an infrastructure connection, and connects to an existing network system via a network cable. When connecting to a network via Wired LAN, connect the projector to the network hub with a commercially available LAN cable. If you install the optional Wireless LAN unit in the projector, you can connect to the network via a wireless LAN access point.
You can easily connect to a computer and project images from the computer without making network settings. This lets you connect easily without a connector cable, and you can even connect if the projector and the computer are at remote locations.

Steps for Connecting

Use the following steps to connect the computer to the projector and project in EasyMP Network Projection.
You need to perform steps 1 to 4 only the first time you connect.

If you are not using a virtual display, clear the virtual display checkbox on the Add-Remove EPSON Virtual Display screen so that the mouse pointer moves back inside the screen's display area. To subsequently use multi-display again, select the required display under Add-Remove EPSON Virtual Display. To clear a check mark, see the following.s p.25

Connecting to a Projector on a Different Subnet
This chapter explains how to connect a computer to a projector on a different sub-net via a Wired LAN or a wireless LAN access point on an existing network system. By default, this application only searches for projectors on the same subnet as the computer. Therefore, even if you perform a search for projectors on the network, projectors on a different subnet will not be found. You can, however, identify and connect to a projector on a different subnet as follows: Specify either an IP address or Projector name and perform a search. The IP Address can be input directly. Also, provided the Projector name to be connected has been registered on the DNS server, you can perform a search simply by inputting that Projector name.s p.32 Performing a search based on a Profile Once you have performed a search for a projector on a different subnet by specifying either an IP Address or a Projector name, you can save the search as a Profile with an easy-to-remember name, and then use that Profile whenever you subsequently want to search for a projector on a different subnet.s p.33
Specifying Either an IP Address or Projector Name and Performing a Search (Advanced Connection Mode Only)
In the following explanations, unless otherwise noted, Windows screen shots are used. Similar screens are also displayed for Mac OS. Procedure
A Click "Manual search" on the EasyMP Network Projection
projector selection screen.
If a search fails to find a projector, the most likely causes are as follows. Proceed as appropriate, depending on the cause of the failure. For both Windows and Mac OS: If there is no wireless LAN signal or if the signal is weak, check whether there is anything that could be interfering with the signal. When the optional Wireless LAN unit is installed in the projector, and connecting Mac OS to a wireless LAN, check whether AirPort is set to On. Or, check whether an appropriate access point has been selected. When you use Manual search in Quick Connection Mode, you can specify the SSID. When there are a lot of projectors you can narrow the search field by using SSID.
Enter the IP address or the projector name for the projector you want to connect to, and click "OK".
Performing a Search with a Profile
You can save a search for a frequently used projector as a Profile. A "Profile" is a file containing all of the information pertaining to a given projector, such as the projector name, its IP address, and SSID. If you specify that information, the next time you perform a search, there will be no need to specify the IP address or projector name when you search. For example, by creating a group of Profiles for each place where a projector is setup and managing them with folders, the target projector can be found quickly.

Performance adjustment slider
The performance can be set to Fast, Normal, and Fine. Set to Fast when movie projections are interrupted.

Transfer layered window

Windows only (excluding Windows Vista and Windows 7) Set whether or not to transfer a layered window. The layered window is in use when contents such as messages displayed on the computer are not projected by the projector. Select this checkbox to project contents such as messages that use the layered window. Clear this checkbox if you do not want the mouse pointer to flicker on the screen.
