Anoto penDirector
The Anoto penDirector is a software driver provided as a download by Objectif Lune Inc. The penDir-
ector creates a bridge between the Anoto Digital Pen and a PlanetPress Capture workflow in PReS
Workflow.
In order to use penDirector, it needs to be downloaded from the Objectif Lune website, on this page.
This software must be installed after PReS Workflow. The setup will install a pre-configured version of
penDirector which can be immediately used with PlanetPress Capture.
The communication between penDirector and PReS Workflow is either through a folder transfer or
HTTP Post communication.
To configure this communication:
1. Open penDirector setup by right-clicking on its icon in the Windows System Tray, and selecting
penDispatcher.
2. Double-click on the PlanetPress Capture entry.
3. Change the PGC Storage folder or PGC POST URL settings to your liking.
4. Click OK, then OK again.
The PGC POST URL should correspond to your server name or IP, Port and the HTTP Action task of
your HTTP Input, if that is what you are using.
Example: http://127.0.0.1:8080/ProcessPGC
Bluetooth Connectivity
The Anoto penDirector program can also connect directly to the pen via wireless Bluetooth and receive
PGC files directly through the Bluetooth link, without needing to dock the pen.
To pair penDirector with an Anoto Digital Pen:
1. Make sure that a Bluetooth dongle is present and enabled on the computer where penDirector is
installed.
2. Note down the PIN of the Anoto Digital Pen, by docking the pen and going in the Pen settings
tab of penDirector and looking at the Pen access group at the bottom of the dialog. The default
PIN is 0000.
3. Undock the pen, or remove its protective cap if it is not docked. Make sure the power light on the
pen is turned on and green in color.
4. Go in the Bluetooth tab of penDirector and click on Add Pen.
5. Click on Search while the cap is off on the pen.
