Start or Resume Your WiJET Presentation Session
Once you have successfully configured the wireless card to connect to the WiJET, either
manually or automatically, and when it is your turn to make a presentation, click
“Connect” and you should find yourself connected to the WiJET. There will be no
confirmation window alerting you that your connection is live, and your projector or
monitor should now display your Desktop. If you have a graphic background, you will
notice that it has been replaced by a generic blank gray background.
Various abnormal conditions, such as RF interference and TCP/IP time-out, however rare
in occurrence, can cause the communication between the WiJET and the PSM to be
interrupted. The WiJET continuously monitors a pre-defined exchange between the
WiJET and a presenter’s computer (even when there is no display updates) in order to
detect an interruption of the link. Certain abnormal conditions that cause interruption of
the link may be localized on the current presenter’s computer and/or its wireless card. To
prevent the WiJET from being locked up by the current presenter, the WiJET returns
itself to an “available for connection” state and alerts the users of a link interruption by
putting the WiJET-ready banner page back on the projector/monitor screen. When this
“alert” banner page unexpectedly re-appears in the middle of a presentation, the presenter
can click the “Connect” button to try to resume a WiJET Presentation Session. If the
abnormal condition is temporary, the presentation session should resume instantaneously.
If the abnormal condition persists but is localized on the current presenter’s computer
and/or its wireless card, another presenter can still make use of the projector/monitor by
clicking the “Connect” button on his/her PSM.
Stop Your WiJET Presentation Session
If at any time you wish to disconnect your computer from the WiJET, simply bring up the
WiJET PSM and click on the “Stop” button. Clicking the “Stop” button does not
terminate the wireless connection between your computer and the WiJET. It simply
yields the control of the WiJET so that the next presenter can have control of the WiJET
and make a presentation. The wireless connection to the WiJET stays live after clicking
the “Stop” button so a presenter can quickly get back to another turn of presentation.
Exit the WiJET Presentation Session Manager
Either clicking the “Close” button in the PSM, or right-click the WiJET Tray Icon and
then click “Exit” will terminate the WiJET User Software. The Tray Icon will disappear
from your Windows start menu.
Upon termination, the WiJET software restores your wireless card to its original settings
if the card has been automatically configured.
