Web browser of a computer, you can control the

(VPL-PX15 and VPL-FX50) and a PC card slot, which
allows you to connect the projector to LAN by using
the LAN cables or the specified/recommended LAN
PC card. Installing a wireless LAN PC card to the PC
card slot enables wireless LAN connection.

Inserting the PC memory card, in which data are
stored, into this slot allows you to run a presentation
easily without using a computer.
