Freedom Scientific's PMViewer for PAC Mate

What is PMViewer?

PMViewer is free software, used in conjunction with Microsoft's Remote Display Control program, that allows teachers, parents, and other sighted people to see the PAC Mate user interface on a computer monitor. With PMViewer, you can use a mouse, computer keypad, or the PAC Mate keyboard to navigate menus, dialogs, and even enter text on the PAC Mate "screen."

What Does It Cost?

PMViewer is a free download. There is no charge for this program.

How Do I Get It?

Download the file PMViewer.exe by clicking on the Download Now link near the bottom of this page.

How Do I Install It?

The following steps describe how to download, install, and use PMViewer.

Downloading PMViewer.exe

  1. Save the PMViewer.exe file to a folder on your computer that you can easily remember. You might choose to save it on the desktop where you can quickly find it.
  2. If necessary, use Windows Explorer to locate the file and press ENTER.
  3. Unzip the file's contents to C:\PMViewer. A folder titled PMViewer is created. It contains files that you will use to install and run the application.

Installing Remote Display Control and PMViewer

Note: When installing the software, you must establish an ActiveSync connection between your computer and PAC Mate.

  1. Connect your PAC Mate to your computer and establish a standard or guest partnership using ActiveSync.
  2. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the C:\PMViewer folder, select RemoteDSP.exe, and press ENTER. ActiveSync will then ask if you want to install it on your PAC Mate. Follow the prompts.
  3. While still in the PMViewer folder, locate the PMViewerInstall.exe file and press ENTER. This starts a Remote Display Control session between your computer and PAC Mate, and it creates a PMViewer shortcut on your desktop.

Using PMViewer

To start PMViewer in the future, establish an ActiveSync connection, locate and choose the PMViewer icon on your computer's desktop.
