5 smar ttech.com/kb/170910
CHAPTER 2
INSTALLING THE INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
WARNI NG
Refer to the interactive whiteboard system’s specifications (available at smarttech.com/support)
for its weight. Check local building codes to ensure that the wall can support this weight, and use
appropriate mounting hardware for the wall type.

Choosing a height

SMART includes a mounting template with each interactive whiteboard system. If you lose this
template, contact your authorized SMART reseller. Using this template ensures that you can do the
following:
l Mount the projector at a safe height for head space clearance, while maintaining enough
space for airflow and installation access above the unit.
l Position the projector at the correct height above the interactive whiteboard to align the
projected image with the touch screen.
Dimensions on the template recommend a distance from the floor suitable for adults of average
height. Consider the general height of your user community when you choose a location for the
interactive whiteboard.

Securing the projector to the boom

The top surface of the projector features a secure metal loop that can accommodate a cable
you’ve secured to the projector boom.
6 smar ttech.com/kb/170910
CHAPTER 2
INSTALLING THE INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM

Routing the cables

If the interactive whiteboard uses one mounting bracket, make sure that all projector cables pass
along the top of the bracket and then down the side of the interactive whiteboard.
If the interactive whiteboard uses two mounting brackets, make sure that all projector cables pass
between the brackets. Space the wall-mounting brackets 4" (10.2 cm) apart to provide full support
for the interactive whiteboard’s weight.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect the power cable to a power outlet until you have connected all the cables to the
projector and interactive whiteboard.

Installing SMART software

To access all the features of the interactive whiteboard system, install SMARTsoftware, such as
SMARTNotebook® collaborative learning software, on the connected computer.
