remote control

For use with Datavideo Teleprompter kits

First use – Remote starts in Wired Mode

When first removed from the retail package the WR-500 remote is
already in wired mode. When a button is pressed a RED LED will
flash. The WR-500 can be switched to Bluetooth mode if required.

In wired mode, the remote needs to be physically cabled to the tablet
it is controlling. A four pole jack to jack plug cable is provided with this
remote.

One end of the cable fits into the tablet’s headset socket. The
other end plugs into the jack socket on the WR-500 remote.

NOTE: When using this remote in wired mode the DV Prompter app
should also be set to Wired in the Remote menu option.

Bluetooth Mode – Pairing to your tablet device

Switch the Bluetooth function ON within the tablet device settings.
Open the DV Prompter app on the same tablet device and choose

Bluetooth in the Remote Control menu.
Select and start the required script within the DV Prompter app.
To switch the remote into Bluetooth pairing mode press and hold the

centre Play / Pause button for 3 to 4 seconds.
The GREEN LED will now blink on off repeatedly to indicate it is ready

to pair with a Bluetooth device.
Once paired a Bluetooth icon will be shown in the bottom right hand

corner of the app.

Note: The remote will sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity to save
battery life. Press the play/pause button to wake the remote and it
will automatically try to re-pair with the tablet previously used.

How to replace the internal CR2032 battery

+

remove the case back carefully to avoid user damage to the PCB
or case. Then slide the old battery out.

Please ensure the new button battery is fitted with the positive (+)

To return the WR-500 remote to wired mode from Bluetooth mode simply

press and hold the Play Pause button until the GREEN LED stops
flashing and becomes a steady GREEN light.
