Depending on how your network is configured, you may be able to attach your product to
your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your product directly to a network wall
outlet using a LAN cable.
See the diagram below. Note that the wall outlet is attached to a modem or router
elsewhere in your house.

If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports
the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP
automatically provide the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS values your product
needs to access the Internet so you do not have to enter them manually. Most home networks
are Dynamic Networks.
Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you
must enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS values manually on your product
IP Settings when you set up the network connection. To get the IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.
"You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP address.
"ADSL modems that support DHCP also let you use Static IP addresses.

Most wireless networks have an optional security system that requires devices that access the
network to transmit an encrypted security code called an Access or Security key. The Security
key is based on a Pass Phrase, typically a word or a series of letters and numbers of a specified
length you were asked to enter when you set up security for your wireless network. If you use
this method of setting up the network connection, and have a Security key for your wireless
network, you will have to enter the Pass Phrase during the automatic or manual setup process.

Prevention of Afterimage Burn-in
What is afterimage burn-in?
Afterimage burn-in should not occur when the panel is operating normally. Normal operation
refers to a continuously changing video pattern. If the panel displays a fixed pattern for an
extended period of time a slight voltage difference may occur between the electrodes in pixels
that control the liquid crystals.
Such a voltage difference between electrodes increases with time and makes the liquid
crystals thinner. When this occurs, a previous image can remain on the screen when the pattern
changes.
This information is a guide to prevent afterimage burn-in. Viewing a fixed screen
for an extended period of time may cause afterimage burn-in. This problem is not
included in warranty.
Recommended prevention practices
Viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time may cause afterimage burn-ins or
smudges. If the product is not to be used for a long time, turn it off, or activate the Power
Saving mode or Screen Saver with a moving image.
Change the colours regularly.
