Chapter 3: USING WiJET.G
3.1 Using the WiJET.G in a Meeting
In addition to the obvious convenience with wireless connection, the most important
benefit of eliminating the VGA cable in using presentation projectors or monitors is to
enable fast handover of the projector or monitor control among multiple meeting
participants. The WiJET.G Presentation Session Manager (PSM) provides a simple
user interface allowing quick rotation of presentation among multiple presenters. The
following simple steps sketch out how a successful WiJET.G Wireless Presentation
Meeting unfolds:
1. Copies of the WiJET.G installation CD are kept with the WiJET.G in the meeting
room. The meeting host, before the presentations start, identifies the meeting
participants who do not yet have the WiJET.G Presentation Session Manger
installed on their computers and hands them the installation CDs. The
participants can either run PSM from the CDs or install the PSM onto their
system. The installation is automatic and does not require rebooting the
computer.
2. The meeting host asks all meeting participants to establish a wireless
connection to the WiJET.G before the meeting starts. Most participants can
accomplish this by clicking just one button. This wireless connection is kept
alive throughout the meeting even if only one presenter can use the projector or
monitor at a given time. Confirming wireless connections before the meeting
starts assures a smooth presentation session.
3. At any given time, by clicking just one button in the PSM, one designated
presenter can start the presentation and exclude other presenters from using
the projector/monitor.
4. At the click of one button in the PSM, the incumbent presenter yields the floor
(the projector/monitor) to another presenter while still maintaining a live wireless
link to the WiJET.G.
5. At the click of one button in the PSM, a waiting presenter, owing to the already
established wireless link, can instantaneously take over the projector/monitor.
The normal meeting etiquettes have to be followed to determine how the control of the
projector/monitor should be rotated among presenters. The WiJET.G and its PSM
make the rotation easy and quick and thereby make the meeting dynamic.
3.2 Starting the WiJET.G
When the WiJET.G is first turned on, a boot up sequence will follow. After about
30 seconds, the WiJET.G will display the following graphic (Figure 3.1) with a few
informative messages.
