This section covers marking procedures you might follow while making a pre-
sentation. It is assumed that you have made set-up selections sometime before
your presentation (see Preparing the CPN-5000 for Use, on page 73).
The Pointmaker features a variety of graphics, called markers, which you place over
a video image to draw attention to or explain details of the image. The markers
available include freehand drawing and a variety of pointers. With the keyboard
installed, you can type text, draw straight lines, size frames, and anchor a date/time
label. You can place any combination of these markers on the screen, in any
combination of available colors. Such a combination of markers is called a marker
overlay. With the keyboard installed, you can save and retrieve up to 25 different
marker overlays.
This section assumes that you are familiar with the operational buttons of your
control device, and how to use them to anchor a marker and draw .
Instructions for marking are divided into the following categories:
• Assigning Marker Appearance
• Marking
• Clearing Markers
• Using the Chalkboard
• Displaying Different Overlays
