vice Page for NEC Projectors (http://www.nec-pj.com).
The projector is also supplied with User Supportware 2 CD-ROM in which five programs of
software are stored for effective use of these features. The software stored on this CD-
ROM are as follows.
Each program runs on Windows XP and Windows 2000.
• Image Express Utility 2.0

Cautions on Usage

Cautions on Usage
• A wireless LAN card is not meant for use with facilities or equipment involving the safe-
guard of human life, such as medical equipment, nuclear facilities or equipment, aeronau-
tical or space equipment, transportation facilities or equipment, etc., or with facilities or
equipment requiring high levels of reliability. Do not use the card in such cases.
• Do not use a wireless LAN card near cardiac pacemakers.
• Do not use a wireless LAN card near medical equipment. Doing so may cause electro-
magnetic interference with the medical equipment, possible leading to death.
• Do not disassemble or modify a wireless LAN card in any way. Doing so could lead to fire
or electric shock.
• Do not use a wireless LAN card in wet or moist places, such as in bathrooms or near
humidifiers. Doing so could lead to fire, electric shock or malfunctions.
To prevent damage due to static electricity, eliminate any static electricity from your body
before touching a wireless LAN card.
• Static electricity from the human body may damage a wireless LAN card. Before touching
the card, touch an aluminum window frame, a door knob, or some other metal object
around you to eliminate the static electricity.
The radio waves used by a wireless LAN card pass through the wood or glass used in nor-
mal homes (but not through window panes with built-in metallic mesh).
The radio waves do not pass through iron reinforcing bars, metal or concrete, so a wireless
LAN card cannot be used for communicating through walls or floors made with these mate-
rials.

Image Express Utility 2.0 is a software tool used to send the screen of your personal com-
puter to the projector via a network, without the signal cables.
zHigh-speed, high-quality image transmissions based on NEC's original
compression algorithm
NEC's original compression algorithm allows high-quality images to be sent over the net-
work at high speed, from your personal computer to the projector.
zSimultaneous projection by multiple projectors
Images can be sent from a personal computer to not only one projector but also to two or
more projectors at the same time.
z"Easy Connection" function for connecting wireless LAN
By using "Easy Connection" function*1, the complicated setting of wireless LAN can be
simplified.
*1 This function can be used when Windows XP is used as the OS and when you have a "Computer Administra-
tor" privilege. The communication mode is set to "802.11 Ad Hoc".
The "Easy Connection" function cannot be used with Windows 2000.

zProjected images can be transferred and saved to personal computers.
When "Meeting Mode" is used, projected images can be sent to the personal computers
of all the participants (attendants) of a "Meeting". The received images can be saved to
your personal computer with a memo (text data) attached.
z1-click switching of presenter
When switching to another presenter during the conference, the participants (attendants)
can simply click a button to switch over to the new presenter.
zCentral management of the projecting personal computer
Using the Training Mode allows you to use a single personal computer (Manager) to
manage which personal computer (Attendant) projects. Possible operation includes
switching projecting personal computers to project from, as well as temporarily terminat-
ing communication with the projector.
Attendant

Desktop Control Utility 1.0 is software that operates the desktop screen of a personal com-
puter at a remote location from the projector by using a network.
zA commercially available USB mouse is connected to the projector to operate the per-
sonal computer.
zSuppose, for example, a PowerPoint file to be presented in a conference is saved to a
personal computer in your office. If this personal computer is connected to the projector
in the conference room with LAN when the conference is held, the desktop screen of the
personal computer in your office (Windows 2000/XP) can be projected and the Power-
Point file can be presented by operating the projector. In other words the personal com-
puter does not need to be brought into the conference room.

•You can use the Desktop Control Utility 1.0 to operate a personal computer located in a
separate room from the projector over a network. Therefore, care must be exercised to
prevent any third party from viewing the screen of your personal computer (important
documents), copying files, or turning off the power.
NEC assumes no liability for any loss or damages arising from information leak or sys-
tem failure while you are using Desktop Control Utility 1.0.
•In the Windows operating system, click [Control Panel] →[Performance and Mainte-
nance] → [Power Options] →[System Standby] →[Never]. This will disconnect LAN
connection when the personal computer goes in the standby mode while the Desktop
Control Utility 1.0 is being used.
•The screen saver function is off while Desktop Control Utility 1.0 is running.
