CHAPTER 2

MOUNTING YOUR INTERACTIVE FLAT PANEL

Choosing a mounting location

Consider the following when you select a location for the interactive flat panel:

l The wall must be strong enough to support the interactive flat panel and the mounting

equipment. The interactive flat panel weighs 169.8 lb. (77 kg).

l Select a wall with a flat, regular surface and sufficient clearance to accommodate your

interactive flat panel. Mount the interactive flat panel in a location that’s central to your

audience’s viewing direction.

l Choose a location for the interactive flat panel that’s far from bright light sources, such as

windows and strong overhead lighting. IR lighting can cause issues with the performance of

the cameras and can lead to unintentional or missed touches.

For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller

(smarttech.com/where).

Choosing a mounting height

Consider the general height of the user community when you choose the height for the interactive

flat panel.

The flat panel height is based on the midpoint between the reach of the students and the teacher.

Cable management

When you connect cables to the interactive flat panel from a computer and other peripheral

devices, ensure that the cables aren’t a trip hazard. Use channels and raceways to safely secure

and hide cables. Contact your authorized SMART reseller for these accessories.

6. Press enter to skip through any remaining screens until the window closes.

NOTE

Do not touch any further touch screens as the correct association between the selected

monitor and touch screen will be lost.

IMPORTANT

If you have difficulty with the above procedure, set up your E70 as the primary monitor (or

main display) and try again. You can switch your main display back to its original setting after

you have successfully identified the E70 as your touch screen.

Calibrating your E70 with Windows 7 or 8

Calibration ensures that your E70 recognizes the position of your pen. In Windows 7, when you

calibrate for the first time, the screen uses 16 different reference points. This initial calibration

applies to all users of the E70. If you calibrate again, only 4 points are used, and apply only to your

user account. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows7/getting-more-out-of-your-tablet-pc

Under normal conditions, the SMARTBoard E70 should not require calibration. However,

calibration may be required if touch is inaccurate.

NOTE

Calibration should be done only by an administrator.

To calibrate your SMARTBoard E70:

1. Launch Control Panel -> Tablet and PC Settings. Ensure that the Display tab is visible. Select

E70 from the display drop down menu.
