Congratulations on your new eInstruction TouchBoard. eInstruction gives teachers the ability to engage all types of learners with a high level of interactivity. Built on the popular functionality of the DualBoard™, the eInstruction TouchBoard features touch technology. You and your students can interact with the whiteboard using an eInstruction TouchBoard pen, TouchBoard wand or
their nger.
When the eInstruction TouchBoard is combined with one or more Mobi™ mobile interactive devices, they create an interactive, collaborative
learning environment that is unsurpassed. Mobi is the rst mobile interactive
whiteboard designed to support student-centered collaborative learning and

Mount the eInstruction TouchBoard
Attach the four mounting-brackets to the board, positioning the brackets between the hanging marks on the back of the board. Using four of the eight self-
anchoring screws provided, attach the rst two wall-clips. The top two wall-clips
should be 39.6 inches apart (100.5 cm). The location of the bottom two wall­clips should be determined after the installation of the top two wall-clips. Ensure that the wall-clips are securely fastened and level before attempting to hang the board.
It will require at least two people to safely lift and mount the board on the wall.

Device Manager Calibration
Perform this function to use multiple eInstruction devices in Multi-User mode in Workspace. Any time the eInstruction TouchBoard or video projector is moved, the board should be re-calibrated so that the eInstruction TouchBoard pens, the
tip of your nger, or Touch wand are properly aligned with the cursor projected

Saving, exporting and printing your Workspace
presentation
When you are nished creating your presentation, Workspace has several convenient options for saving and distributing les. Workspace also allows you to
print your presentation.
File formats for importing, exporting and saving your Workspace content.
Save or Save as: GWB - Content can be saved using the Workspace native
le format (GWB). The GWB le format stores all information and formatting without loss of data. The advantage of saving in a GWB le format is that you can
easily open and edit the content with ease as many times as needed.
Save or Save as: IWB- Content can be saved as a Common File Format
(IWB). Saving in common le format allows you to share your content with any
interactive whiteboard and software if the board and software accepts the CFF formatting. Some formatting and interactivity of content may be lost, due to the ability to exchange information between the two softwares.
