Epson Brightlink 485 Quick Guide (Shorewood)

Brightlink basics:
You can turn the projector on and off using the remote control or the wall-mounted Pixie
controller
 on both, choose “Video” for the HDMI signal used by the computer and
document camera
 the projector’s built-in annotation tools will be active when the doc camera is on
 for annotating a computer screen or to use a digital whiteboard, it is best to use
the Easy Interactive Tools on your laptop (more functions/features)
IMPORTANT: You must change the resolution settings on your MacBook Pro the first
time you connect it to the projector. With the HDMI cable plugged into your computer
and the projector set to “Video”, open up your System Preferences and choose Displays.
Select the Epson window and change the resolution setting to 1280x800, then slide the
Underscan control until the projector image is optimal for the whiteboard. See
screenshot:
Calibration – the Epson stylus occasionally needs to be calibrated for accurate tracking
on the board. Normally, this involves tapping 20 or so dots on the screen, but the
Brightlink has an Auto Calibration, which you can initiate from the remote – just press
the “User” button and follow the prompts. Re-calibrate whenever you start seeing the
stylus lose precision.
E-Zoom – You can zoom the projected image using the E-Zoom button on the remote.
