Turn on the Epson projector.

Press the blue "Power" button on the Epson remote control.

The projector will automatically select the HDMI 1 input, so there is no need to change the projector input at any time.

The projector will display the desktop computer by default.

Once a laptop computer is plugged into the HDMI cable (provided on the computer cabinet) the projector will automatically switch to show the laptop computer.

Once the laptop is unplugged from the HDMI cable, the desktop computer will once again be displayed on the projector.

Move the cursor over to the lower right side of the projected image, and an icon will appear.

Press the icon that appears, and expand it, then select the icon that looks like a mouse. This will allow you to control the computer.

Now, the electronic pen will act exactly like a computer mouse.

You may select and click on any icon on the desktop, within a program, or click links on a webpage.

Anything you can do with the computer mouse, you can do by touching this pen to the whiteboard surface.

Saving a sesson for use later, or for sharing with students.

Choose the save icon from the top menu.

The Save As dialog will appear.

Name your presentation (file name).

Choose a destination. Remember you're using a public, classroom computer, so save to your F drive, a USB drive, Box, or another cloud service so you can access the slideshow from another computer.

Always save the file as a .eit ( Easy Interactive Tools) file. This will allow you to bring the presentation up again and edit it, add to it, or use it again in class.

If you care to share the slides with students, save the slideshow a second time, but this time, save as a PDF.

A PDF will include each slide as a page in a single document.

Close the Interactive tools software by clicking on the X at the top right of the window.

Please remember to turn off the projector, and to log off the computer.
