Your SMARTBoard 8055i interactive flat panel features SMART’s proprietary DViT® (Digital Vision
Touch) technology on an LCD screen which enables you to select, write and erase on the interactive
surface. It enables you to do everything you can do at your computer—open and close applications,
conference with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit websites, play and
manipulate video clips and more—just by touching the interactive surface. Two users can also draw
on the interactive surface at the same time, and you can use an array of gestures within applications.
Elegant, sophisticated design
The professional design and crisp, eye-catching visuals of the SMARTBoard 8055i interactive flat
panel make it perfect for any high-end workspace.
Software
To use all the features of your interactive flat panel described in this guide, go to
smarttech.com/downloads and ensure that you have the latest version of SMART software and
SMART Product Drivers installed on your computer.
Presence detection
The interactive flat panel has two presence detection sensors on its frame that can detect people up
to 16' (5 m) away. When the sensors detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns on.
When the sensors no longer detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns off.
Dual sketch capabilities
Two people can each pick up a pen and draw on the interactive surface at the same time, providing a
higher degree of interactivity.
SMARTInk™
SMARTInk enables you to write and draw in digital ink over open applications, files, folders,
websites and any other open window on your computer. When you write outside the open windows on
your computer, a SMARTInk Note appears and you can write inside the note.
When you open an application that has its own ink tools, you can turn off SMARTInk, and then use
the application's ink tools to write in the content.

Presence detection
The interactive flat panel has two presence detection sensors on its frame that can detect people up
to 16' (5 m) away. When the sensors detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns on.
When the sensors no longer detect people in the room, the interactive flat panel turns off.
For information on cleaning your sensors, see Cleaning the presence detection sensors on page 56.
For more information on presence detection settings, see Proximity control settings on page 79.
N O T E
If ECOSTANDBY is enabled, presence detection functionality is limited. For more information, see
Setup settings on page 78
Camera and reflective tape channel
The interactive flat panel screen is bordered by a channel that contains reflective tape. Each corner
has a camera that tracks finger and pen positions across the screen. For information on cleaning your
camera windows and reflective tape, see Cleaning the screen on page 56.
C A U T I O N
l Do not damage or remove the reflective tape.
l Keep the reflective tape dry.
I M P O R T A N T
l Do not attach items such as adhesive notes to the screen because they will interfere with the
cameras.
l Do not place anything in the channel because it will interfere with the cameras.
Pen and eraser holders
The bottom bezel contains magnetic holders for two pens and an eraser. Removing a pen or the
eraser from the holders activates it and enables you to either draw or erase digital ink.
C A U T I O N
When returning the pen or eraser to the magnetic holder, ensure that it is centered on the holder to
prevent the pen or eraser from falling and potentially being damaged.

Choosing a mounting height12
You need a team of professional installers to install your SMARTBoard 8055i interactive flat panel.
This chapter provides additional considerations and details for installing your interactive flat panel.
I M P O R T A N T
Because the receptacles might not be accessible after wall-installation, consider connecting cables
for speakers, computers and peripheral devices while the interactive flat panel is still in its
packaging or is suspended from a lifting device. For more information, see Connecting computers
and peripheral devices on page 13.
Environmental requirements
Before installing your interactive flat panel, review the following environmental requirements. For
more detailed information, see SMART Board 8055i and 8055i-SMPinteractive flat panel
specifications (smarttech.com/kb/170179) or SMART Board 8055ie-SMPinteractive flat panel with

Installing your interactive flat panel
Environmental requirementParameter
Storage temperature-4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C)
Humidity5% to 80% relative humidity, non-condensing
VentilationMaintain a 4" (10 cm) ventilation area around your interactive flat
panel to enable its cooling fans to operate. Do not store or
operate your interactive flat panel in dusty environments
because dust could interfere with the product’s ventilation and
cooling.
Water and fluid resistancel Intended for indoor use only. Doesn’t meet any salt-spray
or water ingress requirements.
l Don’t pour or spray liquids directly onto the interactive flat
panel or any of its sub-components. These liquids might
get into areas where they could damage sensitive
electronic components. Refer to page 56 for detailed
instructions on cleaning your interactive flat panel.
Wall-mounting your interactive flat panel
Use a team of trained, professional installers to install your interactive flat panel.
W A R N I N G
l Improper installation can result in personal injury or product damage.
l Your interactive flat panel weighs 98 lb. (44.5 kg). Refer to local building codes to ensure your
installation area can support this weight.
C A U T I O N
Do not allow the weight of the interactive flat panel to rest on the color select module because it is
not designed to support product weight. Attach other components while the interactive flat panel is
either still in its packaging or suspended from a lifting device to prevent the weight of the interactive
flat panel from damaging the color select module.
I M P O R T A N T
l Save all product packaging so that it is available if you need to transport your interactive flat
panel. If your original packaging is not available, you can purchase new product packaging
from your authorized SMART reseller (smarttech.com/where).

C H A P T E R 2
Installing your interactive flat panel
l Attach the speakers and connect the speaker wires to the interactive flat panel before you
wall-mount it. For more information, see Installing the speakers on page 14.
Important mounting considerations for trained installers
Consider the following when mounting the interactive flat panel on a wall:
ll Plan your workflow to include cabling because some cable connection points might not be
accessible after installation.
l Carry and lift the interactive flat panel by gripping the handles and sides.
l To mount the interactive flat panel on a wall, you require a standard VESA 600 mm × 400 mm
compatible wall mount bracket (not included). The wall mount bracket must have minimum
depth of 14 mm to ensure sufficient space for the speakers.
l Use M8 screws to fasten the wall bracket. The screws must be 14–15 mm long plus the
thickness of the bracket and the washer.
l The recommended fasten force is 99.57–121.70 in-lb. (11.25–13.75 N·m).
l Refer to the instructions included with the mounting equipment for more detailed information.
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 98 lb. (44.5 kg).
l Do not install the interactive flat panel in a location where a door or gate could hit it.
11
C H A P T E R 2
Installing your interactive flat panel
l Do not install the interactive flat panel in an area where it will be subjected to strong vibrations
or dust.
l Do not install the interactive flat panel near where the main power supply enters the building.
l Ensure adequate ventilation or provide air conditioning around the interactive flat panel so that
heat can flow away from the unit and the mounting equipment.
l If you mount the interactive flat panel in a recessed area, leave at least 4" (10 cm) of space
between the interactive flat panel and the recess walls to enable ventilation and cooling.
Choosing a mounting height
Consider the general height of your user community when your choose the mounting height for the
interactive flat panel.
