Sharing with Wi-Fi Display
Since release 11.0 it is possible to use Wi-Fi Display, also known as Miracast, as a presentation
source for your CU360 app or for other apps that can share the device screen.
Miracast is a standard for wireless connections from devices (such as laptops, tablets, or
smartphones) to “Wi-Fi Displays” (such as TVs, monitors, or projectors), introduced in 2012 by
the Wi-Fi Alliance.
Miracast employs the peer-to-peer Wi-Fi Direct standard and allows sending up to 1080p@30 HD
video (H.264 codec) and 5.1 surround sound (AAC/AC3, PCM).
CU360 can be used as a Wi-Fi Display, connecting a compatible media source to it (for instance
TVs, projectors, and streaming media players that also support Miracast).
For instance:
- Computers running on Windows 8.1/10 (if supported by hw)
- Mobile phones running on Windows 8.1/10 (if supported by hw)
- Android phones and tablets running on Android 4.2 or higher
- Amazon’s Fire OS
- Latest TVs with inbuilt Miracast
CU360 as Wi-Fi Display
CU360 can be used as a Wi-Fi Display, with the following capabilities
- Video: H.264 1080p30 (new)
- Audio: AAC and PCM
Important
• Audio from Wi-Fi Display can be heard locally but not transmitted or recorded or
streamed.
On CU, you need to launch the pre-installed Wi-Fi Display App (manually or from the presentation
button when using the CU360 App).

When in foreground, the Wi-Fi App will warn you to check if the Wi-Fi settings are active and will
display the name that your CU360 will use to present itself as a Wi-Fi Display to other compatible
devices (i.e. PC and Android phones/tablets supporting Miracast). In release 11.1 the title bar of
the app has been removed.

The Wi-Fi Settings must be active, even if the device is not connected to any Wi-Fi network.
You can check this configuration under
[GUI] CONFIGURE > NETWORKS> WI-FI

If you need to change this name manually:
- Select Advanced Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Direct
- Press on the three dots on the top-right
