USB Recording to Storage Device The USB-B port on the front of the EMCEE200 can be used to record the video and audio that is routed to the PRESENT output to an external storage device, such as a USB flash drive. A PC is not required for this functionality.
To record video in 4K, or live-stream video for a soft codec presentation, a PC with USB 3.0 is required. Installation and configuration are as follows: 1. Connect the computer to the USB 3.0 “CAPTURE” port on the back of the EMCEE200. 2. Wait for the computer to install the necessary drivers.
EMCEE200 comes with an intuitive IR remote control to quickly change settings during a presentation. If the EMCEE200 is in a location that is difficult to reach with the IR remote, the included IR Receiver extension cable may be used to provide easier access.
