NEO 2
NEO 2 includes an Accelerated Reader SmartApplet that students can use to
take Accelerated Reader RP Reading Practice Quizzes, Vocabulary Practice
Quizzes, and Other Reading Quizzes right on the NEO 2. The Renaissance
Receiver at the teacher’s computer enables NEO 2 quiz data to be sent to
Accelerated Reader RP.
Preparing to Use NEO 2 with Accelerated Reader RP
Before students can use NEO 2 to take quizzes, you must do the following:
• Have Accelerated Reader RP version 7.5 or higher installed and registered
on your Renaissance Place server.
• Install NEO Manager on the teacher’s computer (see page 13). This will also
install or update the Renaissance Wireless Server Utility, which enables
NEO 2 and the Renaissance Receiver to communicate with Accelerated
Reader RP.
• Make sure the Accelerated Reader SmartApplet is installed on your NEO
2(s). If it isn’t, you can install it using NEO Manager (see page 79). If you
would like to use Spanish quizzes, make sure that you have version 1.2 or
higher of the Accelerated Reader SmartApplet installed.
• Connect a Renaissance Receiver to the teacher’s computer (see page 19).
• In the Renaissance Wireless Server Utility, name your Renaissance
Receiver and make sure students know the Receiver name (see page 20).
• Also in the utility, enter the address of your Renaissance Place server in the
Renaissance Place Settings (see page 21).
