Features & Operation

The Tote-Remote is a radio frequency (RF) remote control and a laser pointer. Except for the laser function, the Tote-Remote works by sending keyboard commands to the receiver. The Tote- Remote’s RF technology allows you to control your presentation while moving around a room up to approximately 50 feet or more away from the computer. There is no need to aim the remote control at the receiver. However, please note that although in principle no line-of-sight is required, signal distances may vary depending on the location of the receiver in relation to the computer and other environmental factors. Sometimes range can be increased by plugging the receiver into a USB extension cable that extends in front of the computer, since the electronics inside the computer may weaken the remote control’s RF signal if it has to pass through the computer to reach the receiver.
