Showing a slide 

 
Tap on any slide title to show it. 
 

First Show Page 

First Show Page is the page that is displayed initially when the Presenter-to-Go Application is launched. 
If the card is still powered since the last slide show, then it is the last shown slide.  This allows users to 
go to another application (i.e. Date Book, Address), and return to the presentation. Otherwise it is the 
first slide of the last presentation selected.  If that presentation is unavailable, then it shows the 
Presenter-to-Go splash Screen. 

Displaying Notes while making Presentations 

To view corresponding slide-notes and slide text content while making the presentation, view the note of 
the first slide and start the presentation.  Then as you change the slide in a presentation, the 
corresponding slide-note and text content will be enabled. 

Remote Control Operation 

 
Included with Presenter-to-Go is a 14 button IR remote control shown below. 
 

 

 

Fig 9.21 Remote Control 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
The following control choices are available: 
 
REV   

Reverse or back one slide. 

 
FWD   

Forward or advance one slide. 

 
AUTO 

Set the presentation in AUTO slide-show mode.  If in Preferences the presentation is set 
to enable LOOP, then the presentation will run continuously. 

 
RETURN 

Return to last slide. 

 
The slide number can be entered into the keypad directly.  This in combination with the Return feature 
will allow the user to toggle between two slides anywhere in the presentation. 
 
 
 

Note:  The IR port on 

the Visor is on the side 

of the unit.  It is 

important to point that 

side of the unit towards 

the area where the 

person with the remote 

control is located.
