Introduction

Your SMART HAWM-UX/UF Height-Adjustable Wall Mount (HAWM-UX/UF) is an easy-to-adjust platform for connecting the components of your SMART Board™ interactive whiteboard system. However, placing cables on your HAWM-UX/UF requires care and attention. The HAWM-UX/UF enables you to operate your interactive whiteboard system at multiple levels, depending on your users’ comfort, access and personal height needs. Some equipment that you connect to your HAWMUX/UF isn’t movable and can pose a risk of cable damage unless you take special precautions. By following this guide and carefully examining the lengths of cable you need, you can ensure trouble-free installation and years of safe operation.

If you’re connecting your HAWM-UX/UF to a SMART Mobile Height-Adjustable Floor Stand (FS-UX), see the FS-UX Height-Adjustable Floor Stand Installation and Integrator’s Guide (smarttech.com/kb/147510

) for additional instructions.

2 | CHAPTER 1 – BEST PRACTICES FOR CABLING YOUR HAWM-UX/UF

Best practices for cabling

Use the best practices in this section when placing cables for any type of interactive whiteboard system mounted on a HAWM-UX/UF. Following these best practices makes it easier to install peripheral devices to your interactive whiteboard system, improves the safety and security of your system and prevents damage to your devices.

Don’t mount your HAWM-UX/UF in the way of power outlets or cable locations. If a power outlet or cable crosses the HAWM-UX/UF’s path of travel, a power supply can break or a cable an be damaged.

If you need to attach a peripheral device, guest computer or laptop to the interactive whiteboard system, make sure that the cable is long enough so that, at this highest or lowest height, the HAWM-UX/UF doesn’t pull the laptop or peripheral.

3 | CHAPTER 1 – BEST PRACTICES FOR CABLING YOUR HAWM-UX/UF

Mount your peripheral devices to a permanent location near the HAWM-UX/UF. If the peripheral device moves or can move, it can cause cable strain if the device is moved too far from and interferes with the HAWM-UX/UF.

Before placing cables, note the height and location of cable access points (such as cable tray access hatches, ethernet ports and power outlets) and restrictions in the room, and note alternative routing options. If you can, move the HAWM-UX/UF closer to these access points.

WARNING

To prevent a tripping hazard, bundle excess cabling or use cable-ties and cable management clips to secure the cables above floor level.

4 | CHAPTER 1 – BEST PRACTICES FOR CABLING YOUR HAWM-UX/UF

Customizing your cables

Cables supplied by SMART for connecting your projector to the extended control panel (ECP) or interactive whiteboard are long enough to accommodate the additional distances your HAWM-UX/UF requires. You might need longer cables to attach your interactive whiteboard system to your computer and to other peripherals.

Before customizing or buying cables, assess your installation location and follow these best practices for customizing your cabling to your peripheral devices:

• Carefully measure the distance between your devices and their connection locations on the interactive whiteboard system. Measure the distances at the HAWM-UX/UF’s lowest and highest height, and use the longest distance as your minimum cable length.

• Make sure there’s enough slack in your cables to minimize cable strain.

• When measuring the minimum cable length make sure there are no obstructions in the cable’s path. A rising or descending cable can catch on an obstruction unless the cable is properly secured out of the way of the obstruction.

Mounting your HAWM-UX/UF mobility switch

The mobility switch controls the vertical movement of the HAWM-UX/UF and your interactive whiteboard system. The mobility switch is wired directly to the rear panel of the HAWM-UX/UF. Use the installation guide with the following procedure to place and mount the mobility switch.

To m oun t the

mobility switch

1. Locate the HAWM-UX/UF mobility switch, and then remove and discard the plastic bag that holds the mobility switch.

2. Choose the mobility switch’s mounting location. There are mounting holes on the left and the right sides and near the top and the bottom of the interactive whiteboard.

IMPORTANT

If you installed or plan to install the SMART Audio™ projection audio system (SBA-L), mount the mobility switch on the bottom mounting holes.

7 | CHAPTER 2 – CABLING AN 885ix SYSTEM TO A HAWM-UX/UF

3. Secure the mobility switch cable using a Phillips® No. 2 screwdriver and the two screws listed inside the HAWM-UX/UF installation guide. Secure the cable toward the side of the interactive whiteboard where you choose to mount the mobility switch and make sure that the cable is toward the bottom of the switch as you mount it.

4. Place the cable through the HAWM-UX/UF’s lower cable clip, making sure that the cable is taut between the interactive whiteboard and the clip, and loose between the clip and the base of the HAWM-UX/UF.

5. Bundle the excess cable, making sure that there is a minimum of 28" (71.1 cm) excess straight length or a 14" (35.6 cm) loose loop of cable.

Placing cables for HAWM-UX/UF-mounted components

To prevent cable friction, SMART recommends that you first place the cables that don’t shift after they’re installed. Cables that connect components mounted to the HAWM-UX/UF don’t shift after they’re installed. The wire management bundle (WMB) shifts only if it’s connected to the wall or to the guest computer.

11 | CHAPTER 2 – CABLING AN 885ix SYSTEM TO A HAWM-UX/UF

Connecting the SMART UX60 projector to the wire management bundle (WMB)

SMART recommends that when the WMB isn’t in use, you use the WMB’s magnetic connection to attach the WMB to the HAWM-UX/UF’s moving frame. By doing so, you prevent the WMB from shifting as the HAWM-UX/UF rises and descends.

CAUTION

When attaching a guest computer or laptop to the projector system, make sure that it is not pulled by the HAWM-UX/UF at its lowest or highest height.

NOTE

If you choose to connect the WMB to the wall-mounted magnetic clip, do so at a height and location that doesn’t interfere with the HAWM-UX/UF’s movement.

To connect your

projector’s WMB

1. Connect the WMB to the projector by attaching the HD-DB15 connector to the projector’s connection panel.

NOTE

The USB A plug doesn’t connect to the projector’s connection panel.

When connecting your projector’s power cable, don’t bundle it with or place it parallel to other peripheral device cables you attach to your projector. Any cables that travel the same path must be placed perpendicular (at right angles) to other unpowered cables to reduce signal interference.

19 | CHAPTER 2 – CABLING AN 885ix SYSTEM TO A HAWM-UX/UF

To connect your projector

power cable on the

HAWM-UX/UF

1. Connect the power cable to the projector’s power socket.

2. Place the power cable through the foam-padded section of the cable clip, located under the projector, increase the length of cable between the projector and the clip by 1" (2.5 cm) and then close the clip.

3. Place the power cable around the back of the HAWM-UX/UF toward the left side of the interactive whiteboard if the power outlet is located on the left or toward the right side of the interactive whiteboard if the power outlet is located on the right.

4. Connect the other end of the power cable to a power outlet no more than 72" (183 cm) away from the projector. This distance includes the amount of slack you need for the projector’s range of movement. If necessary, use a power cable extension of an appropriate length that includes a minimum of 28" (71.1 cm) excess straight length or a 14" (35.6 cm) loose loop of cable.

5. Slowly test the movement of the unit, using the HAWM-UX/UF’s mobility switch. Make sure that the cable isn’t taut at any range of the HAWM-UX/UF’s movement.

TIP

Find a support location for the power cable that doesn’t interfere with the movement of the HAWM-UX/UF and attach a cable management clip (not included) to the cable. Make sure that you have enough slack for the HAWM-UX/UF to move freely, and then bundle the excess. This is strongly recommended.

To connect your

projector’s network or

peripheral device cables

on the HAWM-UX/UF

1. If you don’t want to connect a network cable, proceed to step 3. Otherwise, make sure you have a network cable with RJ45 plugs (not included) long enough to connect your projector to a LAN port.

2. Connect the RJ45 plug on the network cable to the RJ45 port on the projector. Make sure that the network cable is in the middle left position in the cable slot.

3. Connect your peripheral device cables to the appropriate locations on the projector’s connection panel.

1. Make sure you have a VGA and 3.5 mm audio cables (not included) long enough to connect your computer to your ECP.

2. Connect the VGA and 3.5 mm audio cables to the VGA and 3.5 mm input connector on the bottom of your ECP.

3. Connect the other end of your the VGA and audio cables to the VGA and audio input on your computer’s video output connector.

Connecting peripheral devices to your SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projectors’ ECP temporarily

To connect a DVD/Blu-ray player, VCR, document camera, digital camera or other visual or audio-visual peripheral device, you must connect the device’s video and audio outputs to the ECP. You can have up to three peripheral devices and a host computer connected at one time.

The SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projectors’ ECP has three video inputs and one communications port: an HD-DB15 with associated 3.5 mm audio jack, an SVideo jack with associated dual-channel audio RCA jacks, a composite video RCA jack with associated dual-channel audio RCA jacks and one RS-232 connector designed for use with room control systems. SMART recommends that you use the video connectors for temporary connections to peripheral devices, or that you permanently attach and secure the cables to the wall for installation.

To connect a composite

video device

1. Make sure that you place the device near the HAWM-UX/UF on a stable support.

2. Allow enough excess cable length to accommodate the HAWM-UX/UF’s rise and descent, or make sure that the HAWM-UX/UF isn’t moved.

3. Connect the device’s video cables to the ECP using the appropriate inputs. Input 2 is the VGA connector, input 3 is the S-video 4-pin mini-DIN connector and input 4 is the composite video input connector.

4. For each peripheral device, connect the device’s audio cables to the associated red and white RCA jacks next to the appropriate video input connector.

5. When you’re finished with the device, remove the cable from the ECP.

Connecting your SMART UF55 or SMART UF55w projector to the SBA or SBA-L projection audio system

The HAWM-UX/UF is designed to accommodate mounting the SBA or SBA-L projection audio system directly to the interactive whiteboard. That way, when the speakers rise and descend with the HAWM-UX/UF’s and interactive whiteboard’s movement, there’s less risk of damage to the audio connection and power cables. Therefore, SMART recommends that you don’t mount the SBA or SBA-L projection audio system to the wall.

Before connecting the audio system to the projector, you must install the speaker brackets, speakers and speaker cable clips according to the SBA-L Projection Audio System textless installation instructions (smarttech.com/kb/142552

).

Using the SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projector connection panel for SBA and SBA-L projection audio systems

The following diagram and list identify the SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projectors’ connections to SBA and SBA-L speakers. To access the cable channel, remove the input/output cover on the left side of the projector and remove the cable covers. For more information, see the SMART Board 600i3 and D600i3 Interactive Whiteboard System Configuration and User’s Guide (smarttech.com/kb/131156

).

To connect your projector

to your speakers

Number Function

1 3.5 mm audio-output connector (recommended for SBA/SBA-L

speakers)

1. Retrieve the 3.5 mm jack to dual channel audio output (two RCA jacks) cable from the SBA-L packaging. This is the audio connection cable.

NOTE

The SBA packaging doesn’t contain a cable of this type. You must supply your own cable of a suitable length.

2. Pass the audio connection cable through the boom. Place the cables in the left side of the cable slot.

3. Connect the audio connection cable to the projector’s connection panel (see above).

Right speaker cable clip

Left speaker cable clip

4. Place the audio connection cable through the right speaker cable clip on the rear of the interactive whiteboard, toward the right speaker.

5. Connect the dual channel audio output to the speaker’s connection panel, and bundle any excess cable in the right speaker cable clip.

6. Retrieve the speaker-to-speaker Molex (double-barreled) cable from the SBA-L packaging.

7. Place the Molex cable through the left speaker cable clip, through the space between the HAWM-UX/UF and the interactive whiteboard.

8. Place the Molex cable through the right speaker cable clip.

9. Connect the Molex cable to both speakers. Bundle any excess cable in the left speaker cable clip.
