Connecting the eVenue Commando-e Remote

Using the eVenue Commando-e Remote
When using the eVenue Commando-e Remote, hold the selected positioning button and release when it’s in the desired position.
For initial use of the eVenue Commando-e Remote with an ePod, it will beep four times to warn of movement. After the initial use, the
beeping will stop, if used continuously. When the eVenue Commando-e Remote is not used for 10 seconds and use resumes, it will
beep four times before moving.

Releasing the button(s) will stop the Upper Speaker Array’s movement in its current position.
Creating and Using Presets
Using the eVenue Commando-e Remote and the Sound Coverage information on page 14 of this manual, set your Upper Speaker
Array and actuator in the desired position. To create an individual preset for buttons 1, 2, 3, or 4, press and hold the Brake and Ready
buttons at the same time for four seconds until eVenue Commando-e Remote beeps twice. Then, hold the specific numbered button
until it beeps twice. The eVenue Commando-e Remote can be preset into a Travel Ready position for easy travel preparation.
Note:
Once a preset is determined, it will remain in the eVenue Commando-e Remote’s memory even when used
on different ePods.
