Installation
LED Light Phases
The RF Receiver does not rely on line-of-sight transmission, so it does not
have to be positioned at the front of the room. Just be aware that the RF
Receiver works best when it is not sitting on a metal surface (such as your
computer box). The PRS RF Receiver ships with a 9V Power Supply,
Power Supply Plug Adaptors, a USB cable.
1 Plug the Power Supply into a wall or power strip outlet.
2 Plug the other end of the Power Supply into the RF Receiver.
3 Plug the square USB B connector into the RF Receiver.
4 Plug the flat USB A connector into an available USB port on your
computer.
The RF Receiver is automatically assigned to a COM Port and that infor-
mation is communicated to the PRS software, so there is no need to set
the COM Port on the Connection Menu.
In a Windows installation: The unsigned RF Receiver
driver is already installed on your computer. Nevertheless,
Windows may need some coaxing before it will recognize
the new hardware. Be persistent and do not let Windows
worry you about the driver being unsigned. This will not
in any way affect the operation of the RF Receiver or PRS.
The RF Receiver green LED light has three phases:
• Fast Flash No USB connection
• Slow Flash Scanning for a free channel, or one with less noise
• Solid On Working
