Using the Ikan teleprompter system is easy. First, set up the heavy - duty tripod. Adjust its height using the single - twist E - Image Mono - Lock. You can adjust it to a height between 18 inches and 63 inches. Once the tripod is set, attach the fluid head to the 100mm bowl mount. Then, mount the 17 - inch teleprompter system onto the tripod plate. You can adjust the balance of the teleprompter using the rail, allowing up to 7 - inch offset. Connect your camera to the teleprompter monitor using HDMI, VGA, or Composite (BNC) inputs. Load the PrompterPro4 Software on your Mac or PC and start your presentation. When using the dolly, make sure to lock the wheels when you want to stay in one place. As for maintenance, keep the teleprompter glass clean with a soft, dry cloth. For the tripod and dolly, check the locks and joints regularly to ensure they are tight. Store the system in a dry place, and use the provided carrying bags to protect it during transportation.
