The card has 12 keys, 1\/A-10\/J, &#039;Ch&#039; and &#039;?&#039;, which are used to automatically transmit responses.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tResponses by the clickers are transmitted to a Receiver that plugs in via USB to the presenting computer. The clickers and receiver have to be set to the same channel to work together. Receivers checked out from Computing Services have their channel labeled on the receiver itself, so simply have your audience change their clicker&#039;s channel at the start of the presentation. This is done by having them press &quot;Ch,&quot; and then entering in the receiver&#039;s channel number (01 for Channel 1, 02 for Channel 2, and so on). When the light flashes green, the clicker is now set to that channel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About the Clickers The TurningPoint &quot;Clickers&quot; are a light-weight card used to send responses to questions on a presentation.
