Introduction

What is an Interactive Whiteboard?

An Interactive Whiteboard is a system that consists of the following components: dot screen, documents that include special dot patterns* (Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO, DSPD, Dot Pattern Printer for CASIO* Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO, which runs on a computer, acts as the front end of the Interactive Whiteboard system.
Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO is an education support tool that displays in real time* text written on the dot screen with the digital pen. Since figures and text can be written with the digital pen directly onto the computer screen (Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO screen) image being projected onto the dot screen, students and presentation attendees are provided with easier to understand information that has greater visual impact. A digital pen can even be used to write on documents printed on paper prepared with special dot patterns, with the handwritten text and figures immediately being shown on the dot screen. This makes handwritten information immediately available to your audience on the screen, as soon as you write it.

Setting Up the Dot Screen for Projection

Important!
z The dot screen that comes with CASIO Interactive Whiteboard is designed for magnetic
adhesion to a metal wall, blackboard, or other appropriate surface. Do not attempt to attach it to a surface that is soiled with dust or other matter, or a surface that does not allow magnetic adhesion.
z To keep the dot screen from falling if it detaches from the mounting surface due to impact, be
sure to use the provided safety hook to secure the dot screen to the surface. For details, see steps 4 and 5 of the procedure under “To set up the dot screen for projection” below.
To set up the dot screen for projection
1.
Remove the dot screen from the screen case and then unhook the anti-slack wires on either end from the end bar.
2.
Affix the magnetic end bar of the dot screen to a vertical surface (metal wall, blackboard, etc.) and gradually unroll the screen.
z While pressing the roll against the surface, slowly rotate it to unroll
the screen.
z Note that you will not be able to adjust the position of the screen
while it is unrolled. To reposition the screen, first roll it back up onto the roll. Pulling the dot screen from a surface without rolling it up or allowing it to fall from a surface can result in irreparable creases in the dot screen.

End bar
3.
Completely unroll the screen and affix the magnetic roll to the metal surface.
z Check to make sure that the dot screen will not separate from the
surface to which it is affixed when you release the roll.
z Note that when the screen is cold it may not flatten out completely,
which makes it very possible that it will become detached and fall from the surface you attaching it to.
4.
Pull out the anti-slack wire of the top end cap and pass the safety hook wire through the loop.
5.
Secure the safety hook to the surface.
z If you are affixing the dot screen to a blackboard that is mounted on a wall, insert the safety
hook into the space between the blackboard and the wall as shown in the illustration below.
z If you are affixing the dot screen to a surface where there is no space that you can use for the
safety hook, secure the safety hook to the wall using the screw that comes with the screen.
z Pull on the safety wire to confirm that the hook is secure.

Using Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO

Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO Overview

This section provides an overview of what Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO (IWB for CASIO) allows you to do, along with initial settings (product registration and calibration) you need to configure and basic operational procedures.

Interactive Whiteboard for CASIO Modes

IWB for CASIO has four modes, each of which is described below.
Mouse Control Mode
This mode lets you use the digital pen in place of a mouse to perform operations directly on the image being projected onto the dot screen.
PowerPoint Control Mode (Supports use of one digital pen.)
This mode is for conducting slideshow presentations of PowerPoint files using PowerPoint. IWB for CASIO can be used to perform slideshow operations (page changes, writing on pages, etc.) with the digital pen on the dot screen or on printed documents with special dot patterns.
Presentation Mode (Supports simultaneous use of up to four digital pens.)
This mode is for conducting presentations using special format (PPG) files generated from PowerPoint, Word, PDF, and other types of files. This mode supports the operations described below.
z Slideshow operations (page changes, writing on pages, etc.) with the digital pen on the dot screen
or on printed documents with special dot patterns.
z As with PowerPoint file slideshow presentations, the Pen tool or Marker Pen tool can be used for
writing into the image. The following operations are also supported: shape, line, and arrow drawing; image file pasting; relocation, zoom, and delete of objects inserted into a page; appending of a blank page at the end of the slideshow, etc.
z Saving of content inserted during a slideshow to a PPG file. After re-opening a PPG file, inserted
content can be edited (relocated, zoomed, deleted) as desired.
z A choice of slideshow views: Full-screen view or window view.
Capture & Draw Mode (Supports simultaneous use of up to four digital pens.)
The Capture & Draw Mode lets you capture the computer screen image (being projected onto the dot screen), and then write or draw figures into the captured image using the digital pen. Note that IWB for CASIO toolboxes and windows are not included in the captured image. Captured images containing inserted data can be stored as editable format (DST) files, or as non-editable image (png, jpg, or bmp) files.
