Welcome to NEO, the perfect writing tool. With NEO, you can comfortably
write, edit, and store text quickly and conveniently, no matter what your
location. NEO’s light weight and long battery life make it an easy choice to use
at school, the library, in meetings, or out in the field. NEO integrates with
your computer and prints directly to your printer, either wirelessly or with a
cable connection.
If you have a NEO 2 model, you can also use it as you would use a
Renaissance Responder with a Renaissance Receiver, allowing you to get
real-time input from students in your class. You can also use NEO 2’s radio
frequency capability to print wirelessly.
NEO 1 and NEO 2 both come with NEO Manager software, the companion
program that runs on your computer (Windows or Macintosh) and lets you
manage and configure your NEOs.
This manual explains the many ways in which you can use your NEO. You can
also find webinars and on-demand sessions in the Renaissance Training
Center; go to www.renlearn.com/training/, hover the mouse pointer over
Learn by Product, and choose NEO 2.
