Remote Control Installation and Operation

Connecting the

Receiver

Receiver The external serial receiver lets you control your mouse from up to 45
feet away. To connect the Mind Path external receiver to your computer follow
these steps:



Turn off your projector.



Plug the free end of the external serial receiver cable into a serial port 2
(COM2) on your projector.



Turn on your projector.

Positioning the

Receiver

Once the receiver is connected to your projector, take care to place it so the
remote's infrared signal can reach it. There are two ways to do this. The best way
to position the receiver is so that the infrared signal travels directly from the remote
into the receiver. As you use the remote, aim at the red light on the receiver. If your
presentation room's configuration prevents positioning the receiver this way,
position the receiver so the infrared signal bounces off a projection screen or wall.
Depending on the distances involved and the reflective qualities of the screen or
wall, bouncing the infrared signal off a screen or wall may perform just as well.

Installing the

Battries

The remote uses 2 AAA alkaline batteries.

To install the batteries, follow these steps:



Turn the remote upside down with its back facing you.



Using your thumb, gently press and slide the battery cover up until the battery
compartment is exposed.



Insert the batteries into the battery compartment.



Slide the battery cover back into position until it snaps into place.

NOTE: Although your batteries should last up to 1 year of normal operation, we recommend you
purchase a second set of batteries and carry them with you as a back up. Always use alkaline-type
batteries in your remote.

Software Notice

Your 5200 IR remote Control includes specially configured
operating software.

DO NOT remove or edit this software, unless advised and
