Reflecting the Image
WARNING
Using a mirror to reflect your projector's image enables
you to enjoy a much larger image when a smaller space
is required.Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror
system. If you're using a mirror system and your image
is inverted, use the MENU and buttons on your
projector cabinet or your remote control to correct the
*
Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done
by a qualified technician. Contact your NEC dealer
for more information.
*
•
Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If
the projector falls to the ground, you can be injured
and the projector severely damaged.
•
Do not use the projector where temperatures vary
greatly.The projector must be used at temperatures
between 41˚F (5˚C) and 104˚F (40˚C).([ECO MODE]
is set automatically to [ON] at 95°F to 104°F/35°C
to 40°C. Note that [ECO] mode will be set to [ON]
automatically at 86°F to 104°F/30°C to 40°C when
used in [HIGH ALTITUDE].)
•
•
Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or
smoke. This will harm the screen image.
Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around
your projector so heat can dissipate. Do not cover
the vents on the side or the front of the projector.

2. Installation and Connections
Making Connections
Connecting Your PC or Macintosh Computer
NOTE: When using with a notebook PC, be sure to connect the projector and notebook PC while the projector is in standby mode
and before turning on the power to the notebook PC.
In most cases the output signal from the notebook PC is not turned on unless connected to the projector before being powered up.
* If the screen goes blank while using your remote control, it may be the result of the computer's screen-saver or power manage-
ment software.
Enabling the computer’s external display
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display.
Usually, the combination of the ‘Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections.

9 Network Setting by Using an HTTP Browser (V300X/V260X/
V300W/V260W only)
Overview
Connecting the projector to a network allows the Alert Mail setting (→ page 47) 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 18)
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-

Enabling the computer’s external display.
Displaying an image on the notebook PC’s screen does not necessarily mean it outputs a signal to the projector.
When using a PC compatible laptop, a combination of function keys will enable/disable the external display. Usu-
ally, the combination of the “Fn” key along with one of the 12 function keys gets the external display to come on
or off. For example, NEC laptops use Fn + F3, while Dell laptops use Fn + F8 key combinations to toggle through
external display selections.
•
•
Non-standard signal output from the computer
If the output signal from a notebook PC is not an industry standard, the projected image may not be displayed
correctly. Should this happen, deactivate the notebook PC’s LCD screen when the projector display is in use. Each
notebook PC has a different way of deactivate/reactivate the local LCD screens as described in the previous step.
Refer to your computer’s documentation for detailed information.
Image displayed is incorrect when using a Macintosh
When using a Macintosh with the projector, set the DIPswitch of the Mac adapter (not supplied with the projector)
according to your resolution. After setting, restart your Macintosh for the changes to take affect.
For setting display modes other than those supported by your Macintosh and the projector, changing the DIP switch
on a Mac adapter may bounce an image slightly or may display nothing. Should this happen, set the DIP switch
to the 13" fixed mode and then restart your Macintosh. After that, restore the DIP switches to a displayable mode
and then restart the Macintosh again.
NOTE: A Video Adapter cable manufactured by Apple Computer is needed for a PowerBook which does not have a mini D-Sub
15-pin connector.
•
•
Mirroring on a PowerBook
* When using the projector with a Macintosh PowerBook, output may not be set to 1024 x 768 unless “mirroring”
is off on your PowerBook. Refer to owner’s manual supplied with your Macintosh computer for mirroring.
Folders or icons are hidden on the Macintosh screen
Folders or icons may not be seen on the screen. Should this happen, select [View] → [Arrange] from the Apple

HDMI™ (Deep Color, Lip Sync) with HDCP
What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not func-
tioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected
with HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content
Protection, LLC).

HDMI™ (Deep Color, Lip Sync) with HDCP
What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) is a system for preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
If you are unable to view material via the HDMI input, this does not necessarily mean the projector is not func-
tioning properly. With the implementation of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with
HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the HDCP community (Digital Content Protec-
tion, LLC).
*5
An image with higher or lower resolution than the projector’s native resolution (1280 × 800) will be displayed
with scaling technology.
