Connecting to a wireless display (Miracast®)

The chartplotter’s display screens can be mirrored to an external Miracast®-compatible display (e.g. a Smart TV), or a Miracast®-compatible HDMI dongle.

  1. Follow the instructions provided with your external Miracast®-compatible display or dongle to set up that specific device.
  2. From your chartplotter, select the display icon found under Wireless display: in the This Display menu) (Homescreen > This Display > Wireless Display:).
    The chartplotter will search for available external Miracast®-compatible displays and dongles.
  3. Select the external display or dongle you want to use.
  4. If your chartplotter has Wi-Fi Sharing enabled, a PIN number is displayed on the external display. Input this PIN number when requested by your chartplotter.
  5. You may also be requested to allow the external display or dongle to connect automatically in future, select Yes or No as appropriate on your external display.

    Your chartplotter screen will be mirrored on the external display.

  6. To allow the external display to connect each time your chartplotter is switched on, enable the Connect on power up option from the pop-over menu.
Note

  1. Don’t forget to check your external display for any required confirmations / acknowledgements during the connection process.

  2. Some non-Miracast-certified devices may not be able to connect with Wi-Fi Sharing enabled, in this case disable Wi-Fi Sharing and try again.

  3. If you experience connection issues, try disabling and enabling the wireless display feature on the external display and on your chartplotter, or power cycle both devices.

  4. Once connected / paired to an external display, do not change your chartplotter's Wi-Fi Passphrase, as on certain devices a factory reset may be required to re-establish a connection.
