D. The external monitor connected to the Receiver Base shows only the wallpaper
background of your Windows® desktop.
1. The default configuration for the external monitor connected to the Receiver Base is in
the Extend mode (an extension of the image on the computer to a second screen).
2. This mode allows you to display different information on each monitor connected to
your computer. Drag a window off of the right side of your primary display to have it
appear on the external monitor.
3. To switch to Mirror mode, so that an exact duplicate of the image on your primary
monitor displays on the external monitor, please see “Adjusting video settings”
beginning on page 20.
E. Video or game playback is slow or choppy on the external monitor connected to
the IOGEAR Wireless Software.
1. Confirm that the PC meets the minimum system requirements to run the
GUWAVKIT4B. You can find the requirements on the packaging, or online in the
product pages at www.IOGEAR.com
2. Ensure the PC is within 30ft of the TV / Monitor and the Wireless USB PC Adapter
has direct line of site to the Receiver Base.
3. Double click on the UWB Connection Manager icon in the system tray and note the
signal strength meter next to the device icon in the Window. Signal strength must be
4-5 bars to play high definition video.
4. The UWB Connection Manager uses an advanced video graphics controller to
display video images; however it does not support 3D Gaming.
F. Cannot play videos on an external monitor connected to the GUWAVKIT4B.
Try a different media player. VLC Media Player is recommended, though the
GUWAVKIT4B supports many different players.
G. The Screen Resolution window in the Control Panel does not list all of the
resolution modes my monitor is capable of displaying.
The GUWAVKIT4B’s video card requires Extended Display Identification Data (EDID)
to be supplied by a connected monitor. This information includes resolution settings
supported by the monitor. Some monitors do not supply this information, and in such
cases the resolution settings available in the Screen Resolution Window will be limited,
to avoid damage to the monitor.
H. The external monitor connected to the GUWAVKIT4B is incorrectly identified as a
“Non-PNP monitor” in the Windows® Device Manager.
The monitor name displayed in the Windows® Device Manager is controlled by
Windows®. This designation will not affect the functionality of the device.
I. The computer’s built-in display does not turn off when the external monitor
connected to the Receiver Base is set as the primary monitor.
On some systems, the GUWAVKIT4B video adapter cannot control the internal display.
