Important Safety Information
Handling the AC power adapter’s cord and plug
• Damaging the power cord could lead to fire or electric shock.
• When installing, do not squeeze the power cord
between the product and a wall, rack, etc.
• Do not modify or damage the power cord.
• Do not place heavy objects on the power cord or pull
strongly on it.
• Do not place the power cord near heating appliances or
otherwise heat it.
• When unplugging the power cord, always do so by pull-
ing on the plug, not the cord.
If the power cord should be damaged, ask your store of
purchase to replace it.
• If there is dust or metal objects on or near the power plug’s blades, unplug the power cord then wipe the blade area clean using a dry cloth. Continued use without clean­ing the plug could lead to fire or electric shock.
• Do not plug in or unplug the power cord with wet hands. Doing so could lead to electric shock.
• When moving the unit, turn off the power and be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC outlet first. Moving the unit with the power cord plugged in could damage the cord, leading to fire or electric shock.
• Connect the power plug securely to the AC outlet, press­ing the blades in to the hilt. Incomplete plugging could cause heating or attract dust, leading to fire. In addition, touching the plug’s blades could cause electric shock.
• Do not connect a device to the accessory outlets of the AC power cord that will exceed the rating of the power cord.
• Dust or other matter that collects on the accessory outlet portion could be the cause of fire.
• Do not use a power cord that is in an excessively bent condition.
Do not use the included CD-ROM in a player designed for audio CDs.
• Never use the included CD-ROM in a player designed for audio CDs. Doing so could produce loud noises that could impair your hearing. These noises can also damage your speakers.
Installation
• When mounting on a wall, be sure to check first that the wall surface is strong enough to support the total weight of the main unit, mount fittings and printer for a long period of time (including during earthquakes). If the wall is not strong enough, reinforce it before mounting the unit.
• Getting water on or inside the unit etc., could lead to fire or electric shock. Be particularly careful when using the unit near a window when it is raining or snowing and when using it near the shore of the ocean and lakes.
• Do not set the unit in hot places exposed to direct sunlight or in places exposed to an air conditioner or heating duct.
Do not set the unit in places exposed to soot or humidity
(near humidifiers, etc.).
• When the power plug will be unplugged from the power outlet, please place the Captureboard near the power out­let so that it may be reached easily.
Projector
• When using the projector to project an image, and when making a presentation or the like, light from the projector may enter the eye.
Direct viewing of the projector light will be a cause of injury
to the eye; therefore, due caution should be taken.
Preventing Tipping (for stand type units)
To prevent tipping, heed the instructions below. Tipping could lead to personal injury or damage the unit.
• Use the unit on a flat floor.
• Be sure to attach the supplied stabilizers to the stand, and lock the stoppers of the casters. Failing to do so could result in the unit tipping and could lead to personal injury.
• Do not lean against the unit or apply excess force to the top of the unit.
Cautions on Usage
• Take care that the unit does not get wet and that water does not get inside. Do not place objects containing chem­icals, water or other liquids (vases, potted plants, glasses, cosmetics, etc.) on top of the unit. The liquid could spill and get inside the unit, leading to fire or electric shock.
• When lifting the unit to adjust the height, etc., the unit should be lifted by at least two persons to prevent it from tipping and causing personal injury.
• Do not move the sheet with paper or other objects attached to it. Doing so could cause damage.
• Do not wipe the unit or sheet with thinner, benzene, alco­hol or other such products. Doing so could cause discolor­ation or damage the sheet.
• Please be sure to use the dedicated markers and eras­ers. Use of other types of markers or erasers, or rubbing directly with the hand may scratch the sheet, or may soil the sheet and the ink may not come off.
The markers must be stored in a horizontal orientation.
The ink may be difficult to remove if they are not.
• When moving the (stand type) unit, remove the stabilizers and release the caster locks. Hold the sides of the main unit and move it gently. Avoid shocks.
• When not using for long periods of time, for safety be sure to unplug the AC power adapter from the power outlet.
• Make entries within the effective reading size. (See page E-9) Portions that are drawn outside of this range might not be printed or copied when saving to USB memory or personal computer.
• Just as with the copyboards up until now, please do not move the sheet manually (by hand) with the current model. Doing so may result in improper storage or printing of the information drawn on the sheet surface.
Important Safety Information
Cleaning
• When the sheet has become soiled, wipe it with a moist cloth that has been wrung well. When heavily soiled, add a small amount of clean water to the sponge of a new dedicated eraser and wipe, and before the sheet surface has dried finish wiping with a soft clean, dry cloth. After cleaning, allow the sheet to dry completely before use.
Do not use heavily soiled erasers, wet tissue, office clean-
ers, neutral detergent, or other cleaners.
• Do not wipe the Captureboard or sheet with thinner, ben­zene, alcohol, etc. Doing so could cause discoloration or damage the sheet.
• Wipe of any marks from markers on the pen tray or the frame cover using a damp, thoroughly wrung out cloth.
• When the erasing surface of an eraser has become soiled, exchange the sponge with a spare one, and then use.
Using a soiled eraser will soil the sheet surface, and it will
be difficult to remove the soiled matter from the sheet.
Handling the CD-ROM
• Do not touch the surface which has no printing (the sur­face on which the data is recorded). If this surface is dirty the data will not be read properly.
Also, do not stick paper, stickers, etc., on the CD-ROM.
• Do not leave for long periods of time in places exposed to direct sunlight or near heating appliances, and do not drop or bend the CD-ROM. The disc may get warped, making it impossible to read the data.
USB Memory
• The USB memory formats supported by the Captureboard are FAT, and FAT 32. There are also types of USB memo­ry that cannot be used by this unit. Check the PLUS Vision web site for types of USB memory that have been verified to work with the Captureboard.
• As a provision against the unlikely event of a problem with or disappearance of the data saved in the USB memory, we recommend that the data be regularly saved to other media.
• PLUS Vision will not be responsible for the loss of content stored in the internal memory of this unit (i.e., images that have been read), or in USB memory.
• Note that copying illegal material (tantamount to pos­session of illegal material) is subject to prosecution.
• This product includes parts considered as “strategic material” as per the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Control Act of Japan. Authorization as per said Act is required to export this product from Japan.
USB Cables

Main Functions
Allows the projection of an image that is easy on the eyes, and the use of the dedicated markers and eraser permits direct writing and erasure on the screen sheet surface.
Use of a special screen sheet allows for the projection of an image with the glare of the sheet surface due to the light of the projector being suppressed to the utmost. The use of the dedicated markers and eraser permits direct writing and erasure on the screen sheet surface. Being able to use one piece of equipment as both a copyboard and a projector screen permits effective use of the setup space, and saves the trouble of separate preparation.
The projection image of the projector and the handwritten information on the Captureboard are captured on the personal computer, and stored as a superimposed image file.
Use a USB cable to connect the Captureboard to the projector and the connected personal computer. The installa­tion of dedicated software combined with performing simple operations permits the projected image of the projector and the handwritten information that has been written on top of it to be captured on the personal computer, superim­posed, and saved. Meeting updates, and important information can be conveyed to associates realistically just as it is written and just as it appears.
Text and drawings that have been written on the Captureboard and images can be saved in USB memory as an image file.
By plugging in the USB memory at the bottom surface of the control panel and pressing the “Save” button on the control panel, the content that has been handwritten on the sheet surface can be saved to the USB memory as it appears in the form of an image file, the same as with the existing Copyboard.
Maintenance-free, Low Power Consumption
RGB, 3-primary-color LEDs are used as the reading light source which means that there is no need to replace a flu­orescent tube as with previous copyboard models. In addition, unlike fluorescent tubes, LEDs need only be lit when reading the sheet surface which is reflected in low power consumption.
