I can't remember how to use the Elmo to display the image on the Active board and use the pen to write on it. Can someone please give me some help?:)

Are you wanting the right on the "live" image or take a picture of it and then right on it?

In many cases, document cameras are attached directly to the projector bypassing the computer which. of course, your Activsoftware cannot see.

However, if you document camera is attached to the computer (like through USB), there typically is some sofftware that comes with your document camera that allows a window that displays what the camera sees. I've seen some that the window is tiny and others that the window can be as large as you want.

If you can get the window to display on your computer screen, it should also then project on your Activboard.

In that case, you should be able to annotate over that window just like any other application.

I hope that helps.
