PowerPoint controller handsets

The Associate Dean (Education) can usually provide a Logitech r400 Powerpoint controller (shown) and replacement batteries. The handset has five functions:

·         Start slideshow

·         Slide forward

·         Slide backward

·         Hide slide

·         Laser pointer

 

1)   Find your operating system (e.g. Windows 10). If you don’t know this, right-click the ‘This PC’ icon on your desktop and select ‘properties’.

2)   Select the appropriate operating system and download the ‘Presenter Pairing Utility’ here:

NB: for Windows 10, the Presenter Pairing Utility foe Windows 7 and 8 is compatible (according to this website)

3)   To use the utility, you may need to contact IT Services on an LJMU-managed machine. It might be easier to re-pair the devices on a non-LJMU-managed machine.
