What is Wi-Fi Miracast™?
Wi-Fi Certified Miracast™ is a groundbreaking solution for seamlessly displaying video
between devices, without cables or a network connection. Users can view pictures from a
smartphone on a big screen television, share a laptop screen with the conference room
projector in real-time, and watch live programs from a home cable box on a tablet. Miracast™
®
connections are formed using Wi-Fi Certified Wi-Fi Direct™, so access to a Wi-Fi
network
is not needed–the ability to connect is inside Miracast™-certified devices.
What is Wi-Fi Direct and can I connect to the receiver using Wi-Fi Direct?
Wi-Fi Direct is a peer-to-peer technology that Miracast™ connections are formed in. Even
though some newer Android 4.0 and Windows 8.1 devices may detect the receiver in the Wi-
Fi Direct devices scan list, they will not be able to connect to the receiver. The device must
support Miracast™ to connect with the receiver.
Can I connect to the Wi-Fi router and the receiver simultaneously with my compatible
laptop?
Yes. Connect the laptop to an available Wi-Fi router first, and then connect to the receiver.
You can then view online content and beam it to the HDTV.
Can I connect to the Wi-Fi router and the receiver simultaneously with my Miracast™
device?
Some Miracast™ devices cannot connect to both the Wi-Fi router and the receiver at the
same time. Refer to the device manufacturer's or carrier's user manual for more information.
Can I connect several Miracast devices to the receiver simultaneously?
This connection scenario is available in Classroom Commander mode. Refer to the
Classroom Commander user guide for details.
When Multiview mode is enabled, up to four Miracast devices can connect to the receiver
simultaneously.
Can I connect to multiple ScreenBeam 1100 Plus Receivers simultaneously?
No. You can only connect to one ScreenBeam 1100 Plus at a time.
