Securing the Pen Tray and Interactive Whiteboard

Because the pen tray that comes with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard is detachable, you may want to safeguard it—and the interactive whiteboard at the same time—by anchoring it with a security cable (not included).

IMPORTANT

Securing the pen tray can provide theft deterrence for the interactive whiteboard as well. The screws that secure the interactive whiteboard to the wall are located directly behind the pen tray. The pen tray must be removed before you can remove the interactive whiteboard. When you secure the pen tray, you also secure the interactive whiteboard.

18 Before Installing Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00850-21 B0

To lock the pen tray to the interactive whiteboard

Underneath the pen tray, there is a Kensington® security slot that accommodates a security cable, such as a Kensington® lock.

Security Slot

Loop the security cable behind the pen tray brackets before you screw end of the cable through the loop end of the cable. Verify that the cable is tight enough to prevent you from removing the pen tray while the lock is in place. Install the pen tray. Insert the prong end of the security cable into the security slot, and then complete the pen tray installation.

To secure the pen tray to the pen tray brackets

Because you can remove the pen tray without tools, you may want you can insert two No. 8/M4 screws (not included) into the holes shown in the illustration below. Note that older pen trays don’t have this feature.

Maintaining Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System

In This Chapter

This chapter includes methods to prevent damage to, and to properly clean your SMART Board 600i2 interactive whiteboard system. Follow the additional instructions and recommendations see your Installation and User’s Guide (document 1414

• Preventing Damage to Your Interactive Whiteboard

• Cleaning the Interactive Whiteboard

• Cleaning the Pen Tray

• Cleaning the Unifi 45 Projector

• Preparing to Replace the Projector Lamp

Preventing Damage to Your Interactive Whiteboard

Although the SMART Board 600 series interactive whiteboard surface is very durable, take these precautions to prevent damage to the interactive screen and to other components.

• Don’t use sharp or pointed objects, such as ballpoint pens or pointers, as writing tools.

• Never use abrasive erasers or harsh chemicals when cleaning.

• Never leave adhesive tape on the writing surface for extended periods. Lifting the tape may remove the coating that provides the interactive whiteboard’s dry-erase capability.

• Avoid setting up and using your interactive whiteboard in an area with excessive levels of dust, humidity or smoke.

Cleaning Your Interactive Whiteboard

For additional cleaning instructions, refer to your 600 series Installation and User’s Guide (document 1414). With proper care, your SMART Board interactive whiteboard will provide years of trouble-free service. Follow these tips to keep the screen surface clean:

NOTE: Before you clean your 600 series interactive whiteboard, shut down the computer or unplug the USB cable connecting your interactive whiteboard to the computer. Otherwise, you may inadvertently activate applications or scramble an attached computer’s desktop icons when you clean the screen.

) to properly maintain your interactive whiteboard

• Don’t use low-odor dry-erase markers such as EXPO2®, because the ink can be very difficult to remove. Use only in well-ventilated areas.

• Erase dry-erase ink as soon as possible after use. The longer dry-erase ink is on the surface, the more difficult it is to remove.

• Remove excess dry-erase dust with a damp lint-free cloth before using a cleaner.

• If erasing doesn’t completely remove dry-erase ink, clean the writing surface with a household glass cleaner (such as Windex®) daily, weekly or as required.

• Use dry-erase marker cleaner if ink remains after erasing.

99-00850-21 B0 Maintaining Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 31

• Don’t allow glass cleaner to flow into the crack between the lower frame and the writing surface, or into the pen tray recesses.

• Use isopropyl alcohol for stubborn stains and ghosting.

To remove marks made with a permanent marker, use a cleaner such as the Sanford EXPO Dry Erase Board Doctor. Write directly over the permanent ink stain with the product, allow the solution to dry completely and then wipe clean.

You can also use a high-odor dry-erase marker to remove marks from a permanent marker because dry-erase ink contains solvents that can remove permanent ink. Cover the permanent ink with the dry-erase ink and wipe with a lint-free cloth while the ink is still wet. If any trace of the ink remains, spray a lint-free cloth with a glass or whiteboard cleaner and wipe the area clean.

TIP

When removing permanent marker ink, don’t use low-odor or non-scented dry-erase markers. They don’t contain the appropriate solvents.

Cleaning the Pen Tray

If the infrared sensors in the bottom of the pen tray’s recesses are obstructed, the sensors can’t reliably detect when a pen or the eraser is removed or replaced. The recessed LED may remain lit or won’t light, and the lifted tool won’t work.

Infrared Sensors

To clean a sensor, moisten a cotton swab with a household glass cleaner, such as Windex, and carefully clean the infrared transmitter and receiver.

NOTE: T pen tray. If dust or a small object prevents you from pressing a button, or causes a button to stick, remove the object carefully.

Cleaning the Unifi 45 Projector

WARNING

Cleaning a arm-mounted projector may result in a fall and injury.

CAUTION

Before you clean the Unifi 45 projector, turn off the power button switch on the projector, not the ECP, and allow bulb to cool. Depressing the ECP button at this time would cause the projector to start back up.

Wipe the exterior of the projector using a lint-free cloth.

Avoid touching the mirror located on the end of the projector boom. If necessary, use liquids or commercial solvents (such as glass cleaners) to clean the mirror, but do not spray them directly on the system. Spraying the system or the mirror might spread a chemical mist on some of the projector’s components and lamp, resulting in damage and poor image quality. Spray the liquid or commercial solvent onto a soft lint-free cloth to clean the mirror.

Clean the projector lens with a commercially available blower or lens cleaner. Take care not to scratch the lens.

CAUTION

Do not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the projector base or head. Do not use spray cleaners or solvents near any part of the projector, as it may damage or stain the unit.

Preparing to Replace the Projector Lamp

If a lamp fails or if a replacement message appears on the screen of the Unifi 45 projector, a qualified person can replace the projector lamp. Don’t access the service panel without a replacement lamp and instructions in hand.

WARNING

• If the projector is mounted on the boom, the manufacturer recommends contacting your

authorized SMART reseller

when the lamp must be exchanged.

• Uncovering the lamp while the projector is mounted on an arm might lead to a product damage or personal injury from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken.

• Remove the projector from the arm before servicing the lamp.

• Complete the procedure described in this document instead of the instructions included in your replacement lamp box.

• Only qualified personnel should replace the projector lamp. Replacing the lamp in a boom-mounted projector might result in a fall and injury.

• If you continue to use the projector after the replacement message appears, the lamp might shatter or burst, scattering glass throughout the projector head.

• If the lamp has shattered or burst, do not touch the glass fragments because they might cause injury. Leave and then ventilate the area where the lamp shattered or burst. Wash your hands thoroughly if you have come into contact with lamp debris. Thoroughly clean the area around the projector, and discard any edible items placed in that area because they may be contaminated.

• To see a list of available commands, type ? and then press ENTER.

• When you’re using a terminal emulation program, turn on your program’s local echo setting if you want to

see characters as you type them.

Timing and Command Processing

The Unifi 45 projector responds to commands only at certain power levels and times. There are four projector power states:

• Idle (standby)

• Powering (startup)

• On (operating)

• Cooling (standby)

The embedded firmware program coordinates command sequencing and is capable of buffering up to 127 commands. In each power state, the buffer accepts valid commands until the program can process them.

Power State Commands Accepted

Idle The buffer accepts all valid commands

The system processes the get fwver, get bootver, get input, get powerstate and on commands

Powering • The buffer accepts all valid commands

• The program doesn’t process commands

On • The buffer accepts all valid commands

• The program processes all valid commands

Cooling • The buffer accepts all valid commands

• The program doesn’t process commands

NOTES

• In the On state, a five second delay occurs after every input source change. The program doesn’t process

commands during this delay.

• In the On state, if the current input source doesn’t send a signal, a black screen with the SMART

Technologies logo—a “Command Failed” message appears when you type contrast and brightness commands.

Command Inventory

The Unifi 45 projector responds to the commands in the tables on the following pages.

NOTES

• Commands aren’t case sensitive.

• Type commands exactly as they appear in the left column of the tables, except for number variables, which

are represented by ××, and positive/negative variables, which are represented by ±.

99-00850-21 B0 Remote Management of Your 600i2 Interactive Whiteboard System 49

• Press ENTER after typing each command.

CAUTION

• Cycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage the interactive whiteboard system. Allow at least 15 minutes for cooling before sending the ON command after turning off the system.

• Check your entries carefully before entering your commands.

IMPORTANT

The system buffer can delay response times. Response times vary.

After the projector executes a command, it generates a response. There are two ways to program the command sequence to turn on the system, wait for the powering cycle to finish and select an input source:

• Allow the ECP to sequence the commands

• Control the sequence programmatically
