- Using the Wireless Display technology
Starting the WiDi application
To launch Intel® Wireless Display, perform the following steps:
1 Verify that you have a display adapter connected to the television on which you want to use WiDi and turn on the
television.
2 If you haven’t yet turned on the wireless device switch on your notebook, do so now.
3 Click on the WiDi icon on your desktop or the Start menu shortcut.
4 The PC content is displayed on the big screen TV.
After the initial set-up between the laptop and a compatible display adapter, you can set the adapter as the default
to auto-connect. In the future, simply opening the application will automatically connect the two.
For detailed information about using and troubleshooting the WiDi technology, click on the WiDi icon then click the
[Help] button in the upper right-hand corner to open the Wireless Display Help file.
