This section covers pointing and drawing procedures. The following outline lists
the procedures in the general order that most presenters use them.
• Entering the Marking Mode
• Pointing (with positionable or anchored pointers)
• Drawing
• Typing Text (keyboard installed)
• Framing (keyboard installed)
• Stamping the Date/Time
Entering the Marking Mode
The Pointmaker is in the marking mode by default. The only time it is not in
marking mode is when a menu is displayed. In the Marking mode, the image from
the video source is displayed along with any stored markers. An active pointer is
also displayed, unless it was disabled during setup(see Pointer Toggle, on page 36).
Pointing
You can move the pointer around the screen, using it to direct the viewer’s
attention without anchoring it. You can also position and anchor several point ers
on the overlay, giving you the opportunity to point in a more lasting man ner on
several areas of the image.
Before using or anchoring a pointer, you may want to select a new pointer type (see
Selecting Pointers, on page 78).
Or you may change the pointer color (see Assigning
Marker Colors, on page 75).
From Any Controller
1. Position the pointer anywhere on the video image to direct attention to
an image detail.
Refer to instructions for “Point” under your particular control device (see
Using The Chalkboard, on page 91)
