2. Follow the on-screen instructions to initiate the Miracast / WiDi connection from your Miracast / WiDi
device. Note that you may be prompted to enter a PIN number that appears on the display panel screen

SoftAP
The following steps describe how to access and use the SoftAP feature.
1. Turn ON the STB/display panel, and press
MENU
on the Installer Remote to display the STB
menus (either the setup menus or the Function Menu depending on whether the STB is or is not in
Pass-through Mode).
2. Use the Up/Down arrows to select/highlight the
General
menu icon, and then press
OK
.
3. In the General Menu, use the Up/Down arrows to select
SoftAp
, and then press
OK
.
Note:
If SoftAP is currently grayed out, you may need to turn OFF another Media Share feature in
order to use SoftAP. For example, make sure that Wi-Fi Direct is turned OFF. See also note on page 73
regarding simultaneous use of Media Share features.
4. When you initially access the SoftAP screen, the OFF/ON toggle button at the top right of the screen
is selected/highlighted by default. If SoftAP is currently OFF, press
OK
on the Installer Remote to turn
SoftAP ON. When SoftAP is ON, the SoftAP access information, including the SSID and security key, is
displayed in the lower half of the screen.
5. Make sure Wi-Fi is turned ON on your device, and then look for the STB’s SSID in the list of available
Wi-Fi networks. Initiate the connection, and enter the security key as requested.
Once a device is connected successfully to the STB’s network, you can use it to access the Internet. Up
to five devices may be connected at a time; the Number of Connected Devices field in the SoftAP screen
shows the number of devices currently connected to the STB Wi-Fi access point.
Note:
A wired network connection MUST be established in order for guests to use SoftAP. Also, the SoftAP
feature may only be used while the STB/display panel is turned ON.
Note:
If the Wi-Fi frequency is not automatically detected, set the frequency in the device(s) to 2.4 GHz.
Note:
The example at left
shows the General Menu when
the STB is in Pass-through
Mode. The SoftAP screen is the
same whether the STB is or is
not in Pass-through Mode.
