6. Operating Instructions

The AIMIBO adapter supports two primary casting modes: Direct Mirror and DLNA Mirror. You can also choose between Mirror, Extend, and Off-Screen display modes.

This mode is ideal for quick, direct casting without needing a router network.

2. On your iOS/MacOS device, open the 'Screen Mirroring' or 'AirPlay' function.
3. Select the adapter's name (e.g., 'AMB-123') from the list of available devices.
4. The screen of your device will be mirrored to the connected display.

6.2. DLNA Mirror Mode (Windows/Android)

DLNA mode provides a more stable and extended casting experience by connecting through your router network.

1. Ensure the adapter is in DLNA Mirror mode. If not, press the function button to switch.
2. On your Windows/Android device, connect to the adapter's Wi-Fi network (e.g., 'AMB-123') using the password displayed on the screen (default: 12345678).
3. Open a web browser and enter the IP address displayed on the screen (e.g., 192.168.203.1).
4. In the adapter's web interface, click 'Internet', select your home Wi-Fi router's network, and enter its password.
5. Once connected, your device will use your home Wi-Fi network, and you can initiate screen mirroring via Miracast (Windows) or Smart View/Cast (Android).

6.3. Display Modes

The adapter supports various display modes to suit your needs:

• Mirror Mode: Duplicates your device's screen onto the larger display.
• Extend Mode: Extends your desktop, allowing you to use the larger display as a secondary monitor. (Note: iOS/MacOS devices may have limitations with HDCP-protected apps in Extend mode).
• Off-Screen Mode: Allows you to turn off your device's screen while content continues to display on the larger screen, saving battery.

9. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your AIMIBO Wireless Display Adapter, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Display/Black Screen:
  • Ensure the adapter is properly plugged into the HDMI port and receiving sufficient power (5V/1.5A).
  • Verify that your display device is set to the correct HDMI input channel.
  • Try a different HDMI port or power source.
• Unstable Connection/Lag:
  • Ensure your device is within the recommended transmission range (up to 65FT/20M).
  • Minimize interference from other wireless devices.
  • For DLNA mode, ensure a strong and stable Wi-Fi connection to your router.
  • Some lag may occur with demanding applications like fast-paced gaming; for such uses, direct wired connections are generally more responsive.
• Cannot Connect/Device Not Found:
  • Confirm the adapter is in the correct mode (Direct Connect for iOS/MacOS, DLNA for Windows/Android). Press the function button to switch modes.
  • Restart both the adapter (by unplugging and replugging power) and your source device.
  • For Windows, ensure your device has wireless display functionality and try pressing 'Wins+P' to initiate connection.
  • If using DLNA mode, double-check the Wi-Fi password for both the adapter's network and your home router.
• Streaming App Limitations (iOS/MacOS):
  • Certain streaming platforms (e.g., Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu) may block screen mirroring for iOS/MacOS devices due to HDCP copyright protection. This is a limitation of the content provider, not the adapter.
• Windows Connection Issues:
  • Some Windows laptops may have varying compatibility. Ensure your Windows system is updated and has the necessary drivers for wireless display.
• Factory Reset:
  • If problems persist, hold the function button on the adapter for 15 seconds to restore factory settings.
