PC Presenter
Introduction
The PC Presenter PC is a wireless PC keyboard and mouse controller that can be used as a
standalone unit or as an bus device connected to a Central Controller via AXlink; controlling PC
keyboard and mouse functions, and devices connected to the AXlink bus.
The PC Presenter (FIG. 1) consists of a TXC-MS(L) wireless transmitter and an AXR-MSE
Wireless Mouse and Keyboard Controller (receiver/processor). The TXC-MS(L) transmitter has
mouse controls and can be equipped with up to 24 pushbuttons with an engraved overlay. Each
pushbutton performs a specific operation according to the Axcess software in your AMX control
system, and the mouse disc and buttons control PC mouse functions. The TXC-MS(L)'s cordless
hand-held design lets you interact with your audience and your computer with convenience and
comfort.
The PC Presenter can be used in stand-alone or AXlink mode. The PC Presenter can control a PC
keyboard and mouse functions, plus any devices connected to the AXlink bus.
The PC Presenter can also be used in RF or IR control mode. Set the control mode by setting the
transmitter DIP switch (refer to the Setting the TXC-MS(L) transmitter DIP switch subsection). IR
applications require an external IR sensor (IRX-DM+ or IRX-SM+) configured for 455 KHz
operation.
The PC Presenter transmitter is available with a built-in laser pointer (TXC-MSL), or
without the laser pointer (TXC-MS).

TXC-MS(L) Transmitter
The TXC-MS(L) is an ergonomically designed pushbutton transmitter with up to 26 pushbuttons,
an optional laser trigger (TXC-MSL only), and PC mouse disc. The pushbuttons activate PC
functions or Axcess Push_Commands via infrared (IR) or radio frequency (RF) transmission.
FIG. 2 shows the PC Presenter transmitter and factory pushbutton configuration. A DIP switch
located in the battery compartment sets the transmitter for either RF or IR control. For information
on setting the TXC-MS(L) for RF or IR control, refer to the Setting the TXC-MS(L) transmitter
DIP switch subsection.

PC Presenter
TXC-MS(L) controls
The TXC-MS(L) is available in configurations with up to 26 pushbuttons and PC mouse controls
(mouse disc and left and right mouse buttons). The TXC-MS(L) includes a custom engraved
overlay with text as desired by the customer.
TXC-MS(L) mouse controls
The TXC-MS(L) mouse disc affords you 360° control of cursor direction and speed. The two
pushbuttons located on either side of the mouse disc replace those found on any standard
Microsoft®compatible mouse.
To slow the mouse tracking speed, in Windows®, open the Windows Control Panel and select
Mouse. In the Mouse Properties dialog box, set the pointer speed to near minimum. You can
increase the speed setting as you become more familiar with the mouse disc.
For drag-and-drop operations, press and hold the left mouse pushbutton while moving the cursor to
the desired location. Release this button to complete the drag operation.
Trigger switch
TXC-MS and TXC-MSL transmitters have a trigger switch on the underside of the transmitter
(FIG. 3). TXC-MSL transmitters are equipped with a laser pointer. On the TXC-MSL, this switch
operates the laser pointer. On the TXC-MS, the trigger duplicates the left mouse button.

Radiation Hazard: Lasers produce light emissions that are harmful to the human
eye. DO NOT look into or shine a laser beam into another person's eyes. Laser
radiation can cause retina damage. Read the following WARNING.
Introduction
4PC Presenter
AXR-MSE Wireless Mouse and Keyboard Controller
The AXR-MSE is the receiver/processor component of the PC Presenter. The AXR-MSE receives
RF or IR signals from the TXC-MS(L) transmitter using the attached RF receiving antenna or an
external IR sensor. The AXR-MSE connects between the PC keyboard and mouse cables, and the
keyboard and mouse ports on the PC CPU. The AXR-MSE uses a standard four-pin captive wire
AXlink connector to connect to an AMX Central Controller.
