Frequently Asked Questions
+ON/OFF switch for the Logitech R500 presentation remote
Many people forget to turn off their presentation remote after using it. This is why there is no
ON/OFF button on the Logitech R500. The remote automatically goes to sleep when you don't
use it. This smart power management ensures that the battery doesn't go down when the remote
isn't being used. Even when the R500 is stored in your bag and buttons are pressed, the remote
will wake up and instantly go back to sleep because it is not connected to a computer.
+Battery life and power management on Logitech R500 Laser presentation remote
Battery life
The R500 runs for 12 months on a single AAA battery. When your battery is low, the R500 goes
into a 'power-saving' mode disabling the laser to extend battery life so you can continue
presenting for an extra week.
NOTE: Battery life may vary on user and computing conditions.
Smart power management
The R500 automatically goes into deep sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity.
NOTE: To prevent draining the battery when not used or when traveling, the R500 remote will
instantly go to deep sleep if not connected to a device. The laser will also be automatically
stopped after a continuous press of 2 minutes.
How to check battery status
Press and hold the laser button:
If the LED is steady white: this means that the battery is good.
If the LED is pulsing red: the battery is low and the laser is disabled to save power
