How to Project Wirelessly

  • Insert that LAN module to the already available port
  • Replace that stopper and then use the screw (that you have previously removed) to secure the stopper
  • Close the cover
  • Plug the power cord in again and then turn your projector on
  • Choose Menu button that is available on the remote control and then go with Network and Enter
  • Go with Network Configuration and then Enter
  • Choose Wireless LAN and then Enter
  • Pick the Connection Mode. Press Enter to choose Quick or Advanced. Quick is for direct connection (for your smartphone or tablet or computer) while Advanced is for a connection to an access point or a router. Then go with Enter again. Once you are done, choose Esc so you can go back to the menu Wireless LAN.
  • In the event you choose the Advanced mode, go with Search Access Point and Enter. Use your (arrow) buttons to highlight the SSID within the list
  • If the network has its own security system, then you need to feed the password. Ensure that you provide the right one, including things that are related to the lower or uppercase. It’s case sensitive. When you are done, choose Finish and Enter.
  • Still within the Advanced mode, choose IP Settings and Enter. If the network somewhat automatically assign the addresses, check and ensure that the DHCP is on. If not, turn it on and provide the projector’s Gateway
  • Address, IP Address, and Subnet Mask when needed
  • If you don’t want the IP address and the SSID to appear on the standby screen (of the network), set the mode for IP Address and SSID Display to off
  • When you have done tweaking the settings within the Wireless LAN section, go with Esc
  • Choose Complete and then Enter. Choose Yes, and Enter again so you can save the setting

Turning the Projector On

When you want to turn the projector on (before you connect it to other devices), you need to know how to do it right

  • Remove the lens cover
  • Connect power cord to the power inlet on the projector, and plug in the cord to the power outlet
  • The power light on the projector should turn orange. It means that the device gets power, but it is still within the standby mode so it isn’t turned on just yet. Be advised, though, that if you activate Direct Power On, the projector would turn on immediately after the plug is in
    Press the projector’s power button. This action would make the device to beep and you will see green flash of power light. Wait for around 5 seconds, and the light will stop flashing. If it turns into solid and continuous green, your device is ready. Now you can connect it to any device that you want.
