Usage Notice

Please follow all warnings, precautions and
maintenance as recommended in this user's
manual.

WARNING: Do not disassemble Touch

Unit.

WARNING: Do not use, store, or leave the

Touch Unit near fire, or in places with a
high temperature, e.g., in direct sunlight,
or in sun-heated cars.

WARNING: Use standard USB cable

(maximum length: 0.2 inch (5 m )). To
extend USB cable length over 5m, a
certified active extension USB cable is
required.

WARNING: Do not allow liquids or foreign

materials enter the Touch Unit.

Precautions

The Infrared (IR) camera on the projector
receives infrared signal from the Touch Unit
which is attached to the whiteboard.

To operate normally:

• The IR camera should face the
projected image area on the wall.

• Remove any obstacle in between IR
camera and Touch Unit.

• Do not place other infrared
communication devices, such as IR
microphone; lighting equipments; or
residential heating equipments etc,
nearby.

• Use only the interactive cable from the
accessory kit, with the L side connector
plugged into the Touch Unit.

Maintenance: Gently clean the optical port with
a dust blower.

How it works

• The Touch Unit covers the entire
whiteboard with a thin invisible IR light.

• When a finger or stylus breaks into the
light curtain, the IR light reflects on to
the IR camera.

• The camera module tracks multiple
touch points and reports the positions
to a computer via USB.

• To optimize the touch function, the
screen non-flatness should be less than

0.2 inch (5 mm).

Set Up Touch on Your Projector

Step 1: Environment Check

A Make sure the projector is installed under

the following conditions:

- The wall should be strong enough to avoid

projection image flickering.

- Do no install the projector or screen in a

location subject to direct sunlight. If the
projector or the screen is subjected to
direct sunlight, the interactive function
may not operate correctly.

- The surface shall be suitable for the Touch

Unit to be secured with screws.

- The projection image on screen must be

sharp and visible with no light reflections
or hot spots.

- The screen surface should be flat, non-

flatness less than 0.2 inch (5mm). The
surface can either be a flat wall or a
whiteboard. For details on how to check
surface flatness see page 10.

- Keep at least 2 inch (50 mm) clearance

boundary of the projection image to avoid
reflection interference.

- Other IR devices are not allowed because

they will interfere the touch function. For
example, IR microphone.

- Use standard USB cable with a maximum

length of 16.4 ft (5 m). If the USB cable is
longer than 16.4 ft (5 m), a USB Hub or a
certificated active extension USB cable is
required.

- The projected image is a rectangular

shape.

If the projection surface meets the criteria
above, the Touch Unit can then be installed in
one of the following ways

1 Mount the Touch Unit on a whiteboard.

8

2 Mount the Touch Unit on a wall surface.

Spaces of a & b are reserved to cater
for touch unit.

• Dimension a = 50 mm

• Dimension b = 77 mm

1080p (16:9) image

NOTE: The Touch Unit must be mounted

on the same surface as the projected
image.

B S560T Whiteboard size guidance

When mounting the Touch Unit on a
whiteboard please follow the guidelines below:

Set Up Touch on Your Projector

C Measuring projection surface flatness

- Criteria: overall whiteboard flatness <0.2

inch (5 mm), flatness requirement is <0.12
inch (3 mm) at Touch Unit mounting area.

- Equipment: leveling instrument 3.94~4.92

Ft (1.2~1.5 m) and thickness gauge.

D-1) Split projection area into 16 segments

equally as below chart. Place leveling
instrument on whiteboard.

Set Up Touch on Your Projector

D-2) Insert 0.2 inch (5mm) thickness gauge at

point 1~9 positions in the following order:

Horizontal:

-Measure point 1, 2 & 3.

-Measure point 4, 5 & 6.

-Measure point 7, 8 & 9.

Vertical:

-Measure point 1, 4 & 7.

-Measure point 2, 5 & 8.

-Measure point 3, 6 & 9.

D-3) If 0.2 inch (5 mm) thickness gauge cannot

be inserted, it means whiteboard flatness
is less than 0.2 inch (5 mm) and capable
for finger touch.

Step 2: Installing the Touch Unit

1 Open top cover by Phillips screwdriver

(model: number 1).

2 Mount base plate to whiteboard or wall.

Keep distance to image area:

- 2.17~5.31 inch (55~135 mm) from bottom

of the base plate

- Screw type: M3x6L

- Screw head: ∅ O<0.22 inch (5.5 mm),

thickness <0.1 inch (2.5 mm)

2-4. The two black screws included are tapping

screws, suitable for aluminum honeycomb
board which is the typical whiteboard
material.

NOTE: For other surfaces such as wood

or concrete wall, use suitable screw types.

3 Fix the Touch Unit with wall plate using the

white screws.
