Connecting the Projector Server  
Connecting to an Ethernet network:  
1. Connect one end of a standard CAT5 or higher UTP Ethernet cable to the Projector  
Server’s LAN port.  
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into a network hub or switch. (The maximum  
distance between the Projector Server and hub/switch is 100m)  
Connecting the power:  
1. Plug the power adapter jack into the DC-IN socket on the Projector Server  
2. Connect the power adapter into a mains outlet  
3. Switch on the power at the rear of the Projector Server. The Power and LAN LED’s will  
illuminate and READY LED will flash while the Projector Server initializes. If the LAN LED  
is not lit, please check your Ethernet cable connection.  
Connecting a Projector (or monitor):  
1. Connect the VGA cable from your Projector/monitor to the Projector Server’s VGA port.  
2. Power on the projector/monitor to complete installation.  
Configuring the Projector Servers network address:  
The default IP address setting of the Projector Server is set to ‘Dynamic IP enabled’. When  
connected to a LAN with a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) service the Projector  
Server’s IP address will be automatically set. For fixed IP network settings Dynamic IP should  
be disabled (See Pages 19 – 21)  
Connecting to a Wireless  
Network:  
Set up a wireless LAN connection to the  
Projector Server in the same way that you  
would a Wireless Access Point:

User Manual  
Networking: You can modify various network settings here. Click Save and Re-boot to save  
changes.  
ƒ IP - The Projector Server’s IP address can be set here  
ƒ Mask – The Subnet Mask can be set here  
ƒ Gateway – The Gateway address can be input here  
ƒ Network Name (ESSID) – The network name (ESSID) allows other wireless devices  
to identify and connect to the Projector Server. If there are multiple Projector Servers  
nearby, a unique name for each is necessary. Use a different network name and  
channel from a nearby Access point to avoid wireless interference problems.  
ƒ Channel – Here you can select a wireless channel from the drop down list.  
ƒ Dynamic IP – Click the Dynamic IP button to enable or disable automatic network  
address setting. You must have the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)  
service on your network in order to use the Dynamic IP function. For fixed IP network  
settings, Dynamic IP should be disabled and the user should enter the parameters  
manually.  
Encryption: The Encryption section allows the user to set the encryption keys for the WEP  
(Wired Equivalent Privacy), a data privacy mechanism based on a shared encryption key  
algorithm as defined in the IEEE 802.11 standard. If you enable the WEP setting on the  
Projector Server, all other wireless devices to be connected to it should use WEP with the same  
encryption keys. Click Save and Re-boot to save changes.  
ƒ WEP Encryption – Three settings: Disable, 64 Bits or 128 Bits can be chosen from  
the drop down list. Note – some wireless devices may not support 128 Bit  
encryption.  
ƒ WEP Key Entry – Here you can manually enter a set of four keys. For 64 Bit  
encryption, each key must consist of exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128 Bit  
encryption, each key must consist of exactly 26 hexadecimal characters.  
Note: The hexadecimal characters are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, a, b, c, d, e  
and f. Make sure you enter the hexadecimal characters when setting up WEP  
keys on your PC as well!  
ƒ Default TX Key – Select which key to use when transmitting data. Make sure the  
PC’s WEP encryption key exactly matches the Projector Server’s.  
It is highly recommended that you always enter all four sets of WEP keys to ensure smooth  
communications with other WLAN devices. When WEP encryption is enabled, the selected  
WEP key of the sending device must match exactly with that of the receiving device.  
For example, if you select Key 2 as the Projector Server’s default TX key, then the receiver’s  
(the PC’s WLAN adapter) Key 2 must contain exactly the same encryption codes. Then, if you  
select Key 3 as your PC’s default TX key, then the receiver’s (Projector Server) Key 3 must  
contain exactly the same encryption codes. Therefore, under these two circumstances, your  
PC’s Key 2 and Key 3 encryption settings must match those of the Projector Server.  
Note: The Projector Server’s four WEP keys are labelled 1 through 4  
respectively. Some WLAN devices WEP keys are labelled 0, 1, 2 and 3. In  
such instances the Projector Server’s Key 1 must match with the devices Key  
0, Key 2 with Key 1 and so on.
