Using the remote control or presenter

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

If you want to present your project live, it is good to be able to intervene at any time and control what the player is doing. If you do not have your keyboard in front of you, there are two ways which allow you to control its course.

1. Free remote control app for Apple devices

For devices running iOS7, there is a free app available in the App Store. Download the app and install it.

Your Apple device and the computer where your project is saved must be on the same network in order to establish a connection.

In AquaSoft Stages go to extras / program settings / player. Then start the player from  AquaSoft Stages , You can now use your Apple device to move forwards and back in the presentation.

2. Controlling with the presenter

A presenter is a remote control that can be used instead of mouse buttons and certain keys on the keyboard. It is usually wirelessly connected to the computer and its range will be dependent on the model.
AquaSoft Stages supports MS PowerPoint’s popular shortcuts, so most presenters should function without needing to configure them further. But it is best to be sure that when you are choosing your presenter, that the keys are easily programmable. It is possible to use, for example, the keyboard shortcuts from the program to control the operation of the player.
