underside of the RemotePoint
Presenter Remote.

compartment. Ensure that the
batteries are in the correct orientation
as indicated by the positive (+) and

Connecting the USB Receiver

• Remove the protective cap from the
USB Receiver.

• Flip up the antenna.

• Insert the receiver into an available
USB port on your computer.

• The slowly flashing green light
indicates that the receiver is working.

Because RemotePoint Presenter uses
radio waves, the receiver can be placed
anywhere. You do not need to place it
where you have a line-of-sight
connection with the RemotePoint
Presenter Remote.

Note: Shortly after you connect the receiver, Windows might display the Add New

Hardware wizard. If required, click Next a few times to get through the wizard.
Some Windows 98 computers require that you insert your Windows 98
installation disk. If you do not have this available, an alternative solution is
provided on your RemotePoint Presenter CD in a file titled Win98.pdf.
