Connecting to a Network
The NP3150/NP2150/NP1150/NP3151W comes standard with a LAN port (RJ-45) which provides a LAN connec-
tion using a LAN cable. The USB Wireless LAN Unit also provides a wireless LAN connection. To use a LAN con-
nection, you are required to assign an IP address to the projector. For setting the NETWORK, see page 105. (From
the menu, select [SETUP]

NOTE: Some projectors may not have the USB Wireless LAN Unit. If you own a projector without the USB Wireless LAN Unit in-
stalled and need to present to the projector via a wireless connection, the optional USB Wireless LAN Unit must be installed.
With the LAN connection, two features are available: Projector control and Picture transmission.
