The PC Caster connects your computer (PC) to the Avcast personal entertainment network using the existing coaxial cable wiring in your home. The PC Caster takes the audio and video output from the TV card in your PC and changes it onto a TV signal that can be viewed on any television connected to the Avcast network. The difference between the PCCaster and the MediaCaster is that the PCCaster allows you to control your PC from any TV with the RF Keyboard and Mouse. The PC Caster is not intended to be a substitute for your monitor or for prolonged remote TV-based computer usage.
The PC Caster KIT comes with the PC Caster, Manual, Coax Cable, USB Cable, Drivers (for Windows 95, 98 and 2000), RF Wireless Keyboard and Wireless Mouse.
In addition, the PC Caster allows you to control your PC with two different remote devices: the Avcast Wireless Mouse and the Avcast Wireless Keyboard. These remote devices communicate with the PC Caster via a radio frequency (RF) signal. The PC Caster transmits the information it receives from the remote devices to the PC via a USB connection.
The diskette included with the PC Caster contains the Avcast Settings application and device drivers for your PC to complete the installation process. Drivers for Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 and Windows ME are included on the diskette.
A wall adapter that is plugged into a local electrical outlet supplies power to the PC Caster.
