Assigning clicker IDs

Before your students can connect and use their clickers, you must program each student’s clicker

with a unique clicker ID number. When your students connect to a class, SMART Response

software checks their clicker ID's against the class list to determine whether they are valid members

of the class.

If their clicker IDs aren't in the class list, the clickers don't connect.

To program clicker IDs into the clickers

1. If the clicker is turned on, press the clicker's Power button to turn it off.

2. Press the clicker's Power and Menu buttons simultaneously.

Teacher Mode appears on the clicker’s screen.
