Introduction
Thank you for purchasing Actiontec’s ScreenBeam Pro Wireless Display Receiver
Business Edition. ScreenBeam Pro wirelessly streams what’s on your Intel WiDi
or Miracast™ compatible device to your HDTV, including movies, videos, photos,
music, and more.

security and IT manageability, Managed Meeting (Gen 5 WiDi), smooth video
playback, full 1080p HD support, ultra-low delay, Windows 8.1 optimization, ver-
satile compatibility, low power consumption, and more.

Tips for Optimal Performance
To get the most out of ScreenBeam Pro, note the following:
sKeep ScreenBeam Pro in line-of-sight in relation to the source device. Doing
this will help ensure ScreenBeam Pro receives the best possible signal.
sScreenBeam Pro’s optimal wireless range is within 30 feet of the source
device. However, actual range and effectiveness depends on many factors,
including the amount of existing signal interference and the building mate-
rials used in the surrounding structure.
sAvoid placing ScreenBeam Pro near other possible sources of interference
(such as electric fans or other devices with electric motors), microwave
ovens, and cordless phones.

Managed Meeting
ScreenBeam Pro supports Managed Meeting, which is provided with Intel WiDi

enabled:
sOnly 1 present - No one else can share or take control.
sOthers can request to present - Other people can request control/sharing.
sI can request others to present - you control sharing
To use these meeting modes, you must enable Managed Meeting in the local man-
agement server. Refer to the section titled “Setting up Managed Meeting,” in this
chapter.
