Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the ScreenCast TV Adapter for Intel Wireless Display.
We created this product to help you wirelessly transmit your favorite content
from your laptop to the best screen in your house—your living-room TV.
Before the ScreenCast TV Adapter, you may have needed a long cable or simply
crowded around your laptop screen to share movies, pictures, and surf the Web.
Now you can take content from any WiDi laptop with a second-generation Intel®
Core™processor and easily display it on your TV with the ScreenCast TV Adapter.
From the latest Blu-ray Disc™movies to your favorite Netflix®and YouTube®videos,
to just showing off pictures of your recent family vacation, exactly what you see
on your laptop can now be displayed on your TV from as far as 30 feet away.

ADAPTER SETUP
2. On your WiDi laptop, launch the Intel Wireless Display software.
On some laptop PCs, this may be a switch at the top of the
keyboard. Other PCs may require you to start a program from a
shortcut on the desktop or in the system tray. Refer to your PC
manufacturer’s documentation for specific details on your model.

ADAPTER SETUP
3. When you click to connect to the ScreenCast TV Adapter, a
screen will appear on your TV with a 4-digit security code. A
similar screen appears on your PC requesting that code. Enter
the 4-digit code into the appropriate box on your laptop screen.

ADAPTER SETUP
4. Name the ScreenCast TV Adapter. Naming it will allow you
to easily find it in a list of available adapters should you
have more than one within range. Use a name that is easy
to remember like “Living Room WiDi”. If you choose not to
name it, the device will be set to a factory-default name.
