Accordingly, this system offers you a smart meeting style, instead of connecting and disconnecting

RGB cables which has been required so far.

2. Since the projector and personal computer are connected through the wireless system, this

requires no RGB cable connections. As a result, presenters can make the presentation at their

desired position while operating the personal computer.

3. This system uses a screen capture method that directly transfers the screen displayed on the

personal computer to the projector. The system does not have any limitations on application

software like viewer built-in projector. Any application software can be used. Thus, the system can

be utilized in a variety of fields.

NOTE : THIS SYSTEM IS NOT APPLICABLE TO AN APPLICATION SOFTWARE

USING DIRECTX, MS-OFFICE ASSISTANT, AND REPLAYING OF MOTION PICTURES, SUCH AS DVD.

1.2. Image Transfer Flow

Following the image transfer flow, from capturing of the personal computer screen to projection of

images.

Wireless Imager.)

[NOTE] The default SSID/ESSID for Wireless Imager is set to “ANY”. This SSID/ESSID

(“ANY”) allows communication to the access point in the best link condition.

Therefore, if there are several access points in your area, and you want to establish a

link with an access point in the same network segment, you must have Wireless

Imager in the best possible link condition (for example, locate Wireless Imager as

close to the access point as possible).

To check with which access point your Wireless Imager is communicating, press the

Test Switch on the unit to display its current settings. The SSID/ESSID of access

point to which Wireless Imager is communicating will appear in the parenthesis, “( )”,
