NEO 2
Quick Guide
Before you use the Responder SmartApplet, make sure you’ve done the
following:
• installed NEO Manager (see page 6)
• connected a Renaissance Receiver to your computer (see page 10)
• named the Renaissance Receiver network (see page 11).
• installed the Renaissance Responder client program on your computer if
students will be using NEO 2 with Accelerated Math RP (see the
Accelerated Math Software Manual on the Renaissance Place Manuals
page for instructions)
NEO Manager is needed because it installs the Renaissance Wireless Server
Utility, which is used by all programs that use the Renaissance Receiver.
How to Start the Responder SmartApplet
1. Press on/off to turn NEO 2 on.
2. Press applets.
3. Make sure the cursor is next to Responder; then, press enter.
4. If you have connected to a Renaissance Receiver before, NEO 2 will ask
if you want to stay connected to it. Press Y for yes or N for no; then, press
enter.
If you haven’t connected to a Renaissance Receiver before, you will see a
list of Receivers (networks). Use the arrow keys to highlight the one you
want to connect to; then, press enter.
Using NEO 2 with AccelTest Software
In AccelTest, when you choose “Responder” or “NEO 2 Only” as the scoring
method for an assignment, students can use a NEO 2 instead of a Responder
to enter their answers. Students can use NEO 2 to complete in-class
assignments, but not homework; also, the Notes feature cannot be used with
NEO 2. You cannot assign an owner to NEO 2s as you do to Renaissance
Responders in AccelTest.
As with Renaissance Responders, teachers can start a student-paced
session so students can complete assigned work that can be done with a
NEO 2. Teachers should make sure students have their IDs from the
AccelTest Gradebook. (IDs are also available in the AccelTest Student ID
Report.) Once the student-paced session has been started, students follow
these steps to complete the assignment:
1. Start the Responder SmartApplet as described in the previous section.
2. Type your student ID from the AccelTest Gradebook and press enter.
You can also use
NEO 2s with teacher-
paced sessions, in
which students submit their
answers at the same time for
the questions you ask in class.
For more information, refer to
the AccelTest User Manual.
