  • Since the response pad numbers are assigned on a 'first-come, first-serve' basis per class, if you are enrolled in more than one class that uses CPS and CPSOnline, then the assigned response pad number for each class may be different. Please make a note of the response pad number assigned to you at the end of the enrollment process for each class, and use the email sent to you as a reminder.
  • Reset the Signal inside the Pad - If a pad stops responding, or responds as the incorrect pad number:
1. Take the batteries out of the pad(s).
2. Press any answer key on the pad(s) and hold it down for approximately 10 seconds. 
3. Replace the batteries and try the pad(s) again.
