Chapter 6: Using The Control Utility of the Presentation Player

The control utility may be used from any wired or wireless notebook or desk- top PC with a connection to the Wireless Presentation Player. It is a good idea to place the Wireless Presentation Player on or near the monitor or projection area. The Infrared sensor is located on the front panel of the unit and the remote control must be in line-of-sight in order to function properly.

Make sure that the Presentation Player is connected to the projector or monitor and that both devices are powered on. Click on the Presentation Player Control Utility button on the screen that appears.

1.The welcome screen will appear first. Click Next.

If the screen in Figure 6-2 appears, try these steps:

1.Turn off the Presentation Player and projector, then turn them back on.

2.Click the Search Again but- ton. Try this at least three

 

times.
