Remote Control of the

Computer

T

his chapter describes the ELP Remote Programmer. When this utility is

running on your computer, you can use the remote control to control your

software program. The trackball moves the mouse on your computer, and the

five programmable buttons can be used to drag or click windows or icons.

If you wish, you can also assign a keyboard macro to a programmable button.

A macro is a sequence of up to 32 keystrokes and mouse commands. If you

assign a macro to a button, pressing the button has the same effect as typing the
keys on the keyboard or using the mouse. For example, if you have Windows and

assign Alt + Tab to one of the buttons, you can cycle through your open programs

with the press of a button. If you have a Macintosh, you could assign Apple + 0
and open a new document by pressing a button.

In order to use the ELP Remote Programmer, you must first install the Serial
Communication Kit as described in Chapter 1.
