BrightLink Interaction
The projector control toolbar lets you control the
projector from the screen just as you would using the
remote control.
• Without a computer, you can use the toolbar that is
built into the projector (PC Free Annotation). This
lets you annotate images from a document camera,
tablet, DVD player, or other source connected to your
projector.
Students and colleagues can connect their own
laptops and annotate on the fly using the built-in
toolbar, without installing software.

projector or image is moved, or the image is resized.

colored ends, orange (Interactive Pen A) and blue
(Interactive Pen B). Make sure one AA battery is
installed in each pen.
