Control Panels
Once activated your screen will show the panel(s) that you have installed.
At this point, all of the features and functionality of the Talking Calculator and mimioMouse control
panel can be accessed from the location where you have placed the Control Panel. Note: If you are
working on a large whiteboard, we recommend placing the Calculator decal on the far right-hand side
of the board because it includes a full set of the Xi bar control buttons, eliminating the need to come
back to the bar or computer to activate these commands.
The Calculator Control Panel activates a talking calculator function. For example, press the number 5;
then the multiplication button; then number 5 again; and then the equal sign on the Control Panel (5 x
5 =)…. the calculator will do the rest; activating the calculator application on your PC desktop and
voicing the entries, commands, and results through the PC sound system.
The mimioMouse Control Panel (for use when the PC desktop is projected onto all or part of the
whiteboard) can be used to control mimioMouse calibration and also provides navigation of the cursor
and return key within applications, access to the floating keyboard, mark-up capabilities and
archiving. (Please refer to p.28 for more information in mimioMouse)
NOTE: by initiating
calibration of the mimioMouse Control Panel from the Xi bar button and then touching the
calibration button on the Control Panel, it is possible to obtain at the whiteboard 100% control of
all PC functions using mimioMouse without making a single visit to your PC keyboard.
To de-activate Control Panels, click on the icon in the
“Control Panels” tab of the mimio software or
press the bottom button on the capture bar until the required Control Panel icon appears and its name
is voiced. Wait 3 seconds and a voice prompt will confirm that Control Panel is de-activated.
