Connection Modes

Screen Beam 1100 FLEX offers multiple types of connections for client devices, including Miracast P2P, Infrastructure mode, or Local Wi-Fi mode. Two or more modes can operate concurrently to support various connection options allowing both internal employees and external guests to easily connect and project.

How to Connect

Wi-Fi Miracast Connection

The Wi-Fi Miracast mode allows compatible Miracast devices to connect directly to Screen Beam, even when simultaneously connected to an infrastructure wireless network. Miracast is commonly available on Windows 10/11 and Android 4.4 (and later) devices. Users can enjoy wireless display and Internet access if the client device is already connected to Wi-Fi.

To Connect via Miracast

1. Open your native Miracast application.
   • On a Windows device, hit the Windows + K keys at the same time.
   • Each Android device may call their Miracast a unique name like All Share Cast, Screen Cast, Smart Share, etc.
2. Select the receiver name for the receiver you wish to connect to (name is on Ready to Connect screen).
3. Enter in the PIN if required. If the PIN code is not displayed, try the default PIN 1234.
4. Select duplicate or extended screen mode if prompted.
5. Optional: If you have an interactive flat panel connected to a Windows 10/11 device, select the check box to allow HID, keyboard, Pen, and Touch.

Note: Some Android devices do not support PIN and will fail to connect. Refer to the deployment guide for instructions on how to configure Screen Beam and disable PIN enforcement.

Local Wi-Fi Connection

The Screen Beam Wi-Fi mode is similar to Miracast but uses the Screen Beam device as a local Wi-Fi hotspot or network, providing a simple way for client devices to connect and project.
In this mode, users need to connect their client devices to the Screen Beam Wi-Fi network.

To Connect over Local Wi-Fi

1. Connect the client device’s Wi-Fi to the wireless network (AP SSID) as shown on the TV display.
2. Enter the password for the wireless network. screen beam is the default password.
3. To display wirelessly, you need to find the receiver on the local network connection (i.e. select the Screen Beam receiver name as shown on the display).
   • Windows 10/11 : simultaneously press the Windows and K keys.
   • iOS or macOS : Connect with from the menu bar or control center.
4. Enter in the PIN if required. If the PIN code is not displayed, try the default PIN 1234.
5. Select duplicate or extended screen mode if prompted.
6. If the display has touch functionality, Windows 10/11 devices can take advantage of the touch and inking feature by selecting check box for HID devices described above.

Wireless Display over Existing LAN Connection

Screen Beam 1100 FLEX can also be connected to existing wireless and wired networks and supports wireless display for client devices connected to the same network. In this mode, the Screen Beam device will connect directly to the organization’s networks (wired and/or wireless) and client devices will see the Screen Beam as a display endpoint using their native application (Windows Connect, Airplay, Google Cast, etc).

Note: The Screen Beam receiver must be installed in the same room near the user devices for discovery to reach.

To Connect over the LAN

1. Connect the Screen Beam receiver to a known network where your client device can communicate over Wi-Fi.
2. Verify the receiver obtained an IP address (shown on the Ready to Connect screen).
3. Connect the client device to the same network as the Screen Beam receiver.
4. To display wirelessly, you need to find the receiver on the network connection (i.e. select the Screen Beam receiver name as shown on the display).
   • Windows 10/11 : simultaneously press the Windows and K keys.
   • iOS or macOS : Connect with from the menu bar or control center
5. Enter in the PIN if required. If the PIN code is not displayed, try the default PIN 1234.
6. Select duplicate or extended screen mode if prompted.
7. If the display has touch functionality, Windows 10/11 devices can take advantage of the touch and inking feature by selecting check box for HID devices described above.

Device Management

Configuring and managing your new receiver is an important part of getting the most out of your Screen Beam wireless display receiver.
There are a number of security settings, network settings, and more that allow you to configure and optimize your Screen Beam receiver for your specific needs. To that end, we have provided you two different ways to set up, configure and manage your Screen Beam receiver. You can access the device through a Local Management Interface (LMI) or remotely setup and manage your device through our Central Management System (CMS).

Accessing the LMI

There are three different ways to connect to the LMI.

Method 1: Screen Beam Local Wi-Fi Network

1. Connect the client device’s Wi-Fi to the wireless network (AP SSID) as shown on the display.
2. Enter the password for the wireless network. screen beam is the default password.
3. The Ready to Connect screen on the display will show the assigned IP address of the Screen Beam.
4. Enter the assigned IP address into the web browser of a PC or Apple device.
   • If the receiver is not connected to an existing wireless network or LAN, its IP address is 192.168.26.1. If the receiver is connected a network, the IP address can be identified on the Ready to Connect screen.
5. The browser may give an error stating “The connection or site is not secure or private.” Manually accept the connection as follows:
   • Chrome browser: click Advanced, then click Proceed.
   • Edge/IE browser: click Details, then Go on to the webpage (not recommended).
   • Firefox browser: click Advanced, then click Add Exception, then click Confirm Security Exception.
6. When the Screen Beam management page appears, enter the following (both case-sensitive).
   • Username Administrator.
   • Password screen beam

Method 2: Network Connection via DHCP

2. The Ready to Connect screen on the display will show the assigned IP address of the Screen Beam. Enter this address into the web browser of a PC or Apple device on the same network as the Screen Beam.
   • Follow the directions from Method 1, steps 5 and 6 if you get a browser error.

Method 3: Wireless P2P Direct Connection

1. Using a Windows 10/8.1 device, start a wireless display session listed above.
2. Once connected, use a web browser and enter https://192.168.16.1 to access the LMI.
   • If you get a browser error, follow the directions from Method 1, steps 5 and 6.

Using CMS

In addition to a best-in-class wireless display and collaboration experience, your Screen Beam device includes a Centralized Management System (CMS). This allows you to manage all the Screen Beam devices you have deployed from a central location.

To learn how to set up CMS and manage your deployment, please download our CMS Deployment Guide (click on Product Documentation) from our website at: https://support.screenbeam.com/cms

Note: Access to the LMI is prohibited by default if Screen Beam 1100 FLEX is connected to Screen Beam CMS for management.
This option can be changed in the receiver’s settings.
