Installing your inter active whiteboard system

Choosing a location

Choose a location for your SMART Board 480iv interactive whiteboard system that’s far from bright
light sources, such as windows or strong overhead lighting. Bright light sources can cause distracting
shadows on your interactive whiteboard and can reduce the contrast of the projected image.
Select a wall with a flat, regular surface and sufficient clearance to accommodate your interactive
whiteboard system. Install the projector and your interactive whiteboard on the same flat surface. For
best presentation alignment, mount your interactive whiteboard system in a location central to your
audience’s viewing direction. For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized
SMART reseller (smarttech.com/wheretobuy).
W  W A R N I N G
When mounting the projector boom on a framed or hollow wall, attach both the mounting bracket
and the safety tether to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you use only drywall
anchors, the drywall can fail, resulting in product damage and possible personal injury.

Choosing a height

SMART includes a mounting template with each SMART Board 480iv interactive whiteboard system.
If you lose this template, contact your authorized SMART reseller (smarttech.com/wheretobuy).
Using this template ensures that you:
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 your 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. You should consider the general height of your user community when you choose a position
for your interactive whiteboard.
