Introduction
ongratulations, and thank you for your InternetVue™ purchase. InternetVue™ will allow you to
display your P ’s screen contents on any TV or projector wirelessly. You will be able to view
videos, digital photos, websites, and just about anything on your P , will be shown on your TV.
Moreover, your P ’s audio will also be heard from your TV or audio system.
InternetVue™ is a two-part solution – a software component and a hardware receiver/decoder
module. The software running on the P (a) captures the audio stream and video display
information, then sends that data to the receiver (b) as standard T P/IP packets. The receiver box
becomes a node on the network, either wired or wireless. The receiver not only decodes the
incoming packets back to analog audio and video signals for the TV (c), but it can also serve as a
wireless bridge (d), relaying your internet connection between the P and your wireless gateway
(e).

Ports and Connectors
InternetVue™ has two sets of output video connectors, and one audio output connector. For video,
there are the omponent Video and omposite video outputs.
omposite Video ( VBS) is an older standard, and is very common in all kinds of display devices. Its
connector is denoted by a yellow center insulator. omposite Video carries a specific video format
depending on the country of usage. In the USA, the video format is NTS . NTS video frames
consist of 525 lines of vertical resolution, shown at 29.97 frames per second.
omponent Video (Y-Pr-Pb) is a newer standard, capable of carrying signals from 480i up to 1080p.
InternetVue™ can output up to 720p using this interface. omponent Video is commonly used in
high-definition TVs and projectors, and is the preferred interface for maximum image clarity, color
vibrancy, and sharpness.
Audio output is through a 3.5mm
stereo mini-jack. An included audio
cable has dual stereo R A connectors
on the opposite end.
The RJ45 connector is for wired
10/100Base-T networking. This
interface will not affect the wireless
networking operation of the unit.
The factory reset button must only be
used when necessary. To perform a
factory reset, depress the button for
at least 10 seconds, remove power,
wait 10 seconds, then re-attach power.

Configuration Options
There are four possible ways to interface the InternetVue™, your P , and your internet connection.
However, keep in mind that the internet connection is not necessary. Select which onfiguration
works best for you from the table below.
Configuration A B C D
P Network
onnection Type
Wireless Wireless Wired Wired
Internet Router
Type
Wireless Wired Wired Wireless
Configuration A: Wireless / Wireless
In this onfiguration, your P communicates to
InternetVue™ via wireless networking. The
InternetVue™ then enables its “AP+” feature which
allows it to connect your P to your existing wireless
router/gateway at the same time. Any form of wireless
security enabled on your router/gateway will be
automatically detected and used between the
InternetVue™ and your P . You may be asked to
provide wireless security passwords/passkeys. Write it
down here for future reference:

Configuration B: Wireless / Wired
In this onfiguration, your P communicates to
InternetVue™ via wireless networking. The
InternetVue™ is directly connected to your
router/gateway via the wired network connection.
Internet access is relayed through the
InternetVue™ to your P via wireless networking.
Configuration C: Wired / Wired
In this onfiguration, your P communicates to both
the InternetVue™ and your router/gateway through
wired network connections.
Configuration D: Wired / Wireless
In this last onfiguration, your P utilizes its wired network
connection for internet access from the gateway/router,
while sending A/V to the InternetVue™ through the wireless
connection.
