Q2. Projectors are not displayed in [Discovery]

-Is Wi-Fi set to On?

If the Wi-Fi icon is not displayed on the upper left of the screen(to the right of "iPad"), set the following on the iPad.

Wi-Fi Mark

  • [Settings] - [Wi-Fi] - Set [Wi-Fi] to [On]
  • [Settings] - Set [Airplane Mode] to [Off]
  • * NOTE
    The Wi-Fi icon may not be displayed on iPhones

-Is the correct wireless network selected?

On the iPad, check the checked wireless network name in [Settings] - [Wi-Fi] - [Choose a Network...].

-Are the settings correct?

1. If connecting directly, not via an access point.(Ad hoc mode)

-Projector Settings

Set the following in [Network] - [Wireless LAN Settings] in the projector's advanced menu.

  • [Mode]:Adhoc
  • [DHCP]:ON
  • [SSID]:Default 1 to 4, or enter custom name(Ex.:Default 1: wireless)

-iPad / iPhone Setting

  • On the iPad, select [Settings] - [Wi-Fi]. Select "wireless", or the SSID (access point name) set in the projector.
  • * NOTE
    At this point, if the Wi-Fi icon is not displayed on the upper left of the screen (to the right of "iPad"), check the following settings.

iPad/iPhone Setting

  • Select the right arrow next to "wireless" in [Choose a Network...]. Check that the IP Address setting is set to [DHCP]. If not, select [DHCP].

Q3. Cannot reconnect to a previously registered projector

-Register the projector again using [Discovery].

The IP address assigned to the projector changes dynamically. If the AC power of the projector is turned OFF or after a certain period of time, the IP address of the projector may change. In such cases, the IP address previously registered for the projector and the current IP address of the projector differ, and the projector must be registered again.

Q4. Documents are not projected

-Is the document downloaded?

iCloud Setting

In [Setting] - [iCloud], if [Use iCloud] is set to [ON], the document index is automatically read from iCloud and the document list is displayed. Documents must be downloaded from that list. To download a document, make sure the iPad/iPhone is connected to the network and tap the document.

-Is the document file not supported?

  • The following document files may not be displayed properly.
  • Document files with animations, links, embedded video or sound, slide functions, word art, display comments, or password-protection.
  • PDF files scanned using high resolution.

Q5. Is it possible to project iPad/iPhone's display(including videos and sound) as it is?

It is incompatible with mirroring function. Therefore, it is impossible to project videos and sound.

Q6. How many PCs can be connected to a projector in Adhoc mode?

There is no limitation of the number of connections in Adhoc mode standard. But speed of Adhoc mode is very slow. And in the cases of connecting several PCs to a projector, it depends on the situation whether PCs can be connected correctly or not. When you connect a PC to a single projector, there is no problem with connection and projection.
