Appendix 2: Using Walk-and-Talk Wireless (IR)
To establish a wireless communication link between the whiteboard and
your computer:
1. Position the wireless transmitter so the curved edge faces the board.
2. Adjust the position of the transmitter until the LED on it turns green.
3. If you are using the wireless option with a serial-to-USB adapter,
install the software for the adapter first.
If you are connecting the wireless transmitter to the serial (COM) port
on your computer, not using a serial-to-USB adapter, configure the
PolyVision driver to communicate with your computer serial port as
follows: click the PolyVision icon in your computer’s system tray
(Windows) or system menu (Macintosh), choose “Configure
PolyVision,” click the “Hardware” tab and click the “Find Serial
Whiteboards” button. The PolyVision driver searches all serial ports
for attached boards and adds them to the list. Select your board and
click OK.
4. Test the wireless communication link by standing in front of the
wireless transmitter. If the LED on the transmitter turns from green to
amber, try moving the transmitter or other features in the room until
the LED remains green even if someone stands in front of it. (Rooms
with high ceilings or with few walls may require line-of-sight to
operate Walk-and-Talk Wireless.)
