Interactive Pens
Your projector came with 2 pens, one orange (Interactive

The pens have two different types of tips: a soft, felt tip
and a hard tip. Make sure one AA battery is installed in

Installing Interactive
Software
You may already have interactive software on your
computer, or you may need to install it. If you are using
a Mac, you need Easy Interactive Driver and Easy
Interactive Tools (or other interactive software).
Here’s how to find out if the Easy Interactive Tools
software is installed on your computer:
If you are using a Mac:
Look for the Easy Interactive Driver and Easy Interactive
T
ools folders in the Application folder on your hard
drive. If you see these folders, the Easy Interactive
software is installed.
If you need the software:
Open File Drive
Select Install Software
Locate the software you need, click Install.
If you do not have FileWave OR if you are having
problems installing from FileWave please contact Help
Desk.
For more information about Easy Interactive Tools, see
the online Easy Interactive Tools tip sheet or the online
BrightLink User’s Guide.
