7. Using The Accordent PowerPoint Add-In
7.1 Using The Accordent PowerPoint Add-In
Accordent PresenterPRO includes an Accordent PowerPoint Add-In that enables a presenter to synchronize PowerPoint slides from a remote computer. By communicating directly with Accordent PresenterPRO, a computer with only PowerPoint and the Accordent PowerPoint Add-In installed, can be used to create slide synchronization files that become part of a synchronized, streaming presentation.
Note: Because the Accordent PowerPoint Add-In works in conjunction with Accordent PresenterPRO, it is necessary to configure Accordent PresenterPRO prior to using the Accordent PowerPoint plug-i .
The Accordent PowerPoint Add-In should already be installed on the system that will be used to present the PowerPoint slides. Once installed, the Add-In is enabled by first highlighting the “Settings” drop-down menu in the Presentation Manager and enabling Allow PowerPoint Add-in(See Figure 7-1).
Fig. 7-1
Once enabled, open Microsoft PowerPoint on the computer on which the Accordent PowerPoint Add-In has been installed (the system that will be used to synchronize PowerPoint slides).
In Microsoft PowerPoint, highlight the Tools drop-down menu in Microsoft PowerPoint. On the tools drop-down menu, select the Accordent Add-In Options (See Figure 7-2).
