Using the optional Bluetooth Remote Control

This remote is designed for use with Android™ and iOS/apple™ devices.

How to charge the Bluetooth remote control

It is always best to charge the remote for at least an hour before a prompting session.

Plug the USB charging cable into a free USB A slot on your desktop computer and connect the remote control to the charger cable.

When the remote is charging you will see a flashing red LED light,

this will stop flashing once it is fully charged.

The DV Prompter app will display RECHARGE BATTERY in the bottom right hand corner of the application window when the battery is running low in the Bluetooth remote control.

How to pair the Bluetooth remote control

1. Ensure the Bluetooth remote has been charged fully beforehand.

2. Go in to the settings menu on your phone or tablet device.

3. Go to the Bluetooth settings and turn Bluetooth On and ensure your device is visible.

4. Press and hold the green button on the remote for 1 to 2 seconds until the LED starts flashing Green.

5. You should then see DV Prompter appear on the handset or tablet device when searching for nearby Bluetooth devices.

6. Tap on the DV Prompter label to start the pairing process with the remote control.

7. The tablet or mobile device should recognise the remote as a Bluetooth keyboard type device.

If a message says that you are unsuccessful in pairing the devices then reset the remote. To reset the

Bluetooth remote press and hold the green button until the LED flashes red/amber on the remote.

Then repeat the pairing process as above. Once paired for the first time the mobile device or tablet will then remember the Bluetooth remote making later pairing attempts easier.

Break Markers

Break Markers are a defined group of special characters such as *#. These are defined in the Settings

menu of the DV Prompter App. See the menu option Remote Settings for defining these characters or Break Markers.

If these same characters *# are then placed into the prompting text just before each paragraph or subject change this gives the ability to jump forward or backwards through the script using the remote. There is no limit to the number of break markers that can be used within a saved text file.

To use the break markers press the Green Play button to pause the scrolling text. Then use the

speed up or down arrow buttons to quickly jump forward or backwards through the script.
