Introduction

The WIFI2VGA WiFi to VGA Wireless Video Extender with Audio lets you send a VGA

signal with supporting audio wirelessly from your laptop or desktop computer to a

remote VGA projector or display up to 180 feet (55 meters) away, at resolutions up

to 1440x900.

This VGA over WiFi adapter connects using a single, compact device situated by

your remote display; unlike many other wireless VGA solutions that require devices

at both ends of the connection - saving the hassle of carrying a secondary device

and giving you the freedom to install the included software on many computers as

needed.

Compatible with Wireless N (IEEE 802.11N - backwards compatible with 802.11 B/G)

networks, the wireless VGA extender oers data rates up to 150 Mbps for optimum

video and audio quality, and also features an integrated USB port for keyboard/

mouse connection.

Wireless Network Conguration

The video extender can operate in two wireless modes: Wireless Access Point

mode (AP) or Client Mode (STA).

• AP Mode (default): The video extender will act as a wireless access point (i.e.

wireless router) for other wireless enabled computers. This mode is useful if

there is no existing wireless network where the video extender will be used, or

you do not wish to have the video extender on your main network.

• Client Mode: The video extender will act as a regular wireless client and connect

to an existing wireless network. This mode is useful if there is an existing wireless

access point (i.e. wireless router) already setup or if the computers need Internet

access at the same time. NOTE: The wireless AP must have DHCP enabled.

To set the video extender into Client mode:

1. By default, the wireless video extender will

be set to AP Mode. Check your computer’s

wireless network settings for the network

called “PC2TVwi”.

2. Connect to the PC2TVwi network. No

encryption/security should be enabled yet.

3. Once connected, run the PC2TV program from the desktop icon.

4. Open the “Setting”menu and then click on the Conguration button.

Instruction Manual 6

5. From the Conguration window, click on the “STA Mode”tab then click the

“Enable” option. Enter the required information for connecting to your existing

wireless network (i.e. SSID, encryption type and network key). Click the SAVE

button once complete.

NOTE: Client/STA mode does not support static IP addresses. The wireless AP must

have DHCP enabled.

6. OPTIONAL: If connecting multiple wireless video adapters to this network, be

sure to set a unique Device Name for each one for easy identication under the

“Device” tab.

7. Restart the wireless video adapter by unplugging and reconnecting the power.

Instruction Manual 7

How to Use

1. Double-click the PC2TV icon from the desktop.

2. Once the PC2TV application is ready to connect to the wireless video extender,

the “Play” button will appear.

3. Clicking the “Play” button will automatically begin streaming the computer

desktop to the remote display.

NOTE: Additional users may connect to the wireless video extender at any time.

This will cause the currently connected user to be automatically disconnected.

4. To stop the video streaming, click “Play” once more on the PC2TV application.
