Initial setup
• On the source device (smartphone or computer) with which you want to set up the product, open the
WLAN settings and establish a connection to the HDMI streaming receiver.
The name of the WLAN (SSID) and the associated password with which you connect to your source device
are displayed on your display device (e.g. TV). Once you have established the connection, this will be
indicated at the top right of your display device.
The HDMI streaming receiver supports 2.4 and 5 GHz WLAN networks. To change mode, press
the button on the device. When 5 GHz mode is active, it will be indicated on the screen by a
small, blue ‘5G’ symbol below the stick at the top right of the screen.
• Open the previously installed EZCast app. There is usually a brief tutorial the first time that you start the
app. This will explain how to connect the HDMI streaming receiver to your WLAN. This is required so that
the connected devices and the HDMI streaming receiver can access the internet. You can usually use
most of the features without access to the internet.
• If the tutorial does not open, tap on the square button with the magnifying glass at the top right in the
main view of the app and start it manually to learn how to connect. Once you have completed the tutorial,
connect your mobile device to the HDMI streaming receiver.
• Use the search function via WiFi and enter the displayed password or press the ‘+’ button and scan the QR
code to add the HDMI streaming receiver.
• Now, connect the HDMI streaming receiver to the WLAN of your router.
• To do this, scan the barcode on the display device. Ensure that the SSID and the image are correct.
• Locate the WLAN of your router and tap on it.
• Enter your WLAN password and confirm with ‘OK’.
• Once you have established the connection, this will be indicated at the top right of your display device.
If these connection attempts fail, remove the USB cable from the HDMI receiver and wait a few
seconds before you connect and restore the power supply. Repeat the steps described above
after restarting.
• Basic setting is now complete. You can find all other settings in the menu with the three horizontal lines
or in the ‘Settings’ menu.
