Remote Setup 8


3 Remote Setup

Follow the steps below to set up remotes. Be sure the HID or RF host* is properlyinstalled before proceeding. v.938 host or higher is required for Qwizdom Connect. If the host isnot v.938 host or higher, please contact Technical Support.

1. Click the Remotes menu.2. Select Configuration Preferences. The Remote Preferences window opens.

Estimated Maximum Number of Remotes-the number of remotes thatwill be in use for the presentation. Class/group sizes vary, so it's best toenter the highest estimated amount of remotes rather than accommodatingeach class/group.Enable Backlight-activates the backlight on the Q5RF participant andQ5RF Instructor remotes.

RF host (Red)HID RF host (Black)-most commonly used host.

Set with fixed remote ID-select this mode if you are in a K-12 orCorporate setting. Fixed Set is where the remotes are assigned with aninternal number (assigning fixed numbers) where logging in by ID is notmandatory.Roaming Set or Participant Owned-check this option if the participantsown the remotes. This mode is best suited for Higher Ed/Universitysettings. Participants are required to enter a session ID and participant IDto join a presentation.

3. Enter the maximum number of remotes that will be used.4. (Optional) Check the Enable backlight on Q5 Remotes box.5. Select the HID (Black) host type (most commonly used host).6. K-12 or Corporate Settings (Option)-select Set with Fixed Remote ID.



Read the instructions and click the Start button.Turn the remotes on. When the remotes communicates with the host, the serialnumber and the remote's assigned ID number will appear in the window. If theremotes are prompting for the session ID, enter the session ID that isdisplayed at the bottom of the Assign Fixed Remote ID window. (Note: Ifremotes have been labeled with numbers, turn on remotes in sequence. Be sure towait until the remote has connected before turning on the next remote.)After all the remotes have been assigned, click Done to exit the AssignedFixed Remote IDs window.

You only have to assign fixed numbers once, unless you changecomputers or hosts.

7. Higher Ed/University Settings (Option)-select Roaming Set or ParticipantOwned.

8. Click OK to save and close window.

What is a Session ID?When using Remotes for the first time, the remotes may ask for a Session ID. Each hosthas a unique six-digit Session ID. Session IDs "assign" the remote to the host, allowingthe remote to only communicate with that specific host.

The session IDs can be found:

For both HID (Black) and RF (Red) host, the session ID can be found in the Assigned Fixed Remote IDs window and the Login tab in the PresentationSetup window.

For the HID (Black) Host, click Qwizdom Tools, found in the top right-handbar. The Session ID will be displayed at the top of the menu.For the RF host, the session ID can be found on the bottom of the device on awhite sticker.

You can also create your own session ID in the Presentation Setup window by enteringa session ID you want to use in the User Session column. Creating your own sessionID does not change the host's default session ID. The session ID must be uniquebecause if there are other hosts in the same building, the remotes will become confusedas to with which host to communicate.

Changing Session IDsIf the RF remote or tablet displays No Net, Not Found, Not Active, or Inactive, it couldbe that the session ID is not correct.

For Q2RF remotes: wait for the remote to time out and turn off. When you turn itback on, press the Help key. When you see --S on the display, it is prompting youfor the session ID. Enter it and press the Send key to confirm.For Q4RF remotes: press the Menu key, use the right arrow to scroll to Sess.
