If you do experience problems using the visualizer software to capture student work, this may help. You’ll know you’re having problems if the lens cap is off of the visualizer and you still see a black screen. Imagine the image above, but rather than see that lion you would just see black.
To solve:
- Click on Start> Settings> Control Panel> System>Hardware > Device Manager
- Look down the list and find “Vision Digital Presenter”
- Right-click on it and choose “Update Driver”
- That should do it. Click OK and close the windows and try opening the software again.
- If that doesn’t do it, call AverVision Support(1-877-528-7824). They can help.
