ii | INTRODUCTION – IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Safety Warnings, Cautions and Important Information
WARNINGS – GENERAL
• Do not climb (or allow children to climb) on any
part of your wall-mounted SMART Board
interactive whiteboard system.
• Climbing on the interactive whiteboard or
projector boom could result in personal injury or
product damage. Do not climb on, hang from or
suspend objects from the UX60 projector.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose any component of your SMART Board
interactive whiteboard system to rain or moisture.
• Failure to follow the installation instructions shipped with your SMART product
could result in personal injury and damage to the product.
• Make sure that an electrical socket is near your SMART product and remains
easily accessible during use.
• When mounting the projector on a framed or hollow wall, you must attach both
the mounting bracket and 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.
• Ensure that any cables extending across the floor to your SMART product are
properly bundled and marked to prevent a trip hazard.
WARNINGS – PROJECTOR
• Do not stare (or allow children to stare) directly into the beam of light created
by the projector. Instruct children not to look in the direction of, or stare at, this
beam of light. Encourage users to keep their back to the projector when
working at the interactive whiteboard. Before they turn to face the audience,
users should step sideways, out of the projector’s beam.
• Do not attempt to service the projector other than performing routine lamp
replacement. Other than the lamp module, there are no user-serviceable
parts inside the unit. Do not open or disassemble the projector as this may
cause electric shock.
• This projector detects its remaining lamp life. Replace the lamp when a lamp
life warning message appears. If you continue to use the projector after the
replacement message appears, the lamp can shatter or burst, scattering
glass throughout the projector.
99-00984-20-B0
iii | INTRODUCTION – IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• If the lamp has shattered or burst:
– Call an authorized SMART reseller
for instructions. Do not attempt to
replace the lamp.
– Do not touch the glass fragments because they can 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 could be contaminated.
• When returning the projector to the wall-mounting bracket, replace all of the
screws you removed when you removed the projector. Failure to do so can
result in the projector falling from the boom resulting in product damage and
personal injury.
CAUTIONS
• Avoid turning off the projector during the lamp ignition phase because this can
lead to premature lamp failure. Before turning off the projector, keep the lamp
on for a minimum of 15 minutes after turning it on to preserve the lamp life.
• When you switch the projector off, ensure that the cooling cycle is complete
before disconnecting the power. Allow 90 seconds for the projector to
complete the cooling cycle.
• Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a
warm location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature,
moisture can condense on the lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the
system to reach room temperature before operation to prevent possible
damage to the unit.
• In a high altitude location where the altitude is over 6000' (1829 m), the air is
thinner and cooling efficiency is reduced, so use the projector with the fan
mode set to High.
• Do not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings.
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could
cause a malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
• Do not set up or use the interactive whiteboard system in an area with
excessive levels of dust, dirt, humidity or smoke.
• Do not scrub the surface of the mirror with the supplied cleaning cloth. Use
the cloth with a light touch. Do not put cleaning solvents on the mirror or
cleaning cloth.
99-00984-20-B0
iv | INTRODUCTION – IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• Cycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage the interactive
whiteboard system. After you turn off the system, wait at least 15 minutes for
cooling before turning on the system.
• You must connect the USB cable that came with your SMART Board
interactive whiteboard to a computer that has a USB compliant interface and
that bears the USB logo. In addition, the USB source computer must be
compliant with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and CSA and/or UL
mark(s) for CAS/UL 60950. This is for operating safety and to prevent
damage to the SMART Board interactive whiteboard.
• Do not add extra weight or apply pressure to the UX60 projector boom, the
wall-mounted interactive whiteboard or its pen tray. SMART Technologies
designed the brackets to support only the weight of the components during
normal use.
• If the interactive whiteboard system requires replacement parts, make sure
that the service technician uses replacement parts specified by SMART
Technologies, or parts with the same characteristics as the original.
IMPORTANT
• Turn off the SMART product before cleaning it.
• Using the UX60 projector system near a TV or radio can cause interference to
the images or sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the
projector.
• Do not place the interactive whiteboard system near any appliance that
generates a strong magnetic field.
• Do not place the interactive whiteboard system in direct sunlight.
• 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.
• The SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard system does not include
speakers. Consult your authorized SMART reseller
to determine your audio
output options.
• Disconnect the product from its power source when it is not used for a long
period.

v | INTRODUCTION – IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Transporting the SMART Board 685ix Interactive Whiteboard System
If you need to ship any part of your SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard
system, repack it with the original packaging. If the original packaging is no longer
available, you can purchase replacement packaging from your authorized SMART
reseller.
If you prefer to use your own packaging materials, make sure that you adequately
protect the unit. Ship the interactive whiteboard in an upright position to deter shippers
from placing heavy objects on it.

the UX60 WXGA (16:10)
ultra-short-throw, high-offset
projector. Your SMART Board 685ix
interactive whiteboard system
delivers high-definition, high
performance interactivity that is
virtually shadow-free and glare-free.
When the UX60 projector displays
an image from a computer on the
touch-sensitive interactive
whiteboard, you can draw over the
image in digital ink using a pen or
your finger. This projector also
supports video and audio
connections from a variety of
devices, including DVD and
Blu-ray™ disc players, VCRs,
document cameras, digital cameras
and high definition sources, and can
project media from these sources
onto the interactive screen.
When you use SMART Notebook software with your 685ix interactive whiteboard
system, you can write over any Ink Aware applications in digital ink using a pen tray
pen or your finger, and then save these notes either in the application or to a
SMART Notebook file for future reference and distribution.
SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard Features
SMART Board 685 and SBD685 interactive whiteboards include many features of
other SMART Board interactive whiteboards, such as a resistive touch screen and a
pen tray. The SB685 and SBD685 perform best with the UX60 projector because of its
exceptional color performance, aspect ratio, input response and short-throw image
distance.

SMART Board interactive whiteboard to
the extended control panel (ECP)
• a security device to prevent theft of the
pen tray or the interactive whiteboard
Introducing SMART Board SBD600 Series Interactive Whiteboards
SMART Board interactive whiteboards are now available in two series. The
SMART Board 600 series is the standard and most popular interactive whiteboard; the
SMART Board SBD600 series features Dual-User mode, which enables two people to
touch or write simultaneously on either side of the interactive screen in SMART
Notebook software. The UX60 projector is compatible with both the SMART Board
685 and SBD685 interactive whiteboards. The wide-screen format of the UX60
projector is ideal for supporting Dual-User mode.
SMART Board SBD600 series interactive
whiteboards have a unique logo on the lower right
hand side of the board’s bezel to distinguish them
from standard SMART Board 600 series
interactive whiteboards.
NOTE
Due to its wide screen format, the UX60 projector is not compatible with other
interactive whiteboard model sizes such as SMART Board SB640, SB660,
SB680, SB690, SBD680 or SBD690 interactive whiteboards.

Standard Accessories
SMART provides the following accessories with your SMART Board 685ix interactive
whiteboard system.
Standard SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard Accessories
Pen Tray Tools
The pen tray tools include four pens and an eraser. The pens
have a rubberized grip area, colored to match the four colors
of digital ink: black, green, red and blue. You can use
dry-erase markers instead of the supplied pens, as long as
they’re a similar shape and don’t scratch or mark the surface
of the interactive whiteboard. If the pens you provide don’t reflect infrared light, the
pen tray sensor might not detect the presence of the pen. You can use EXPO®
markers or other substitutes.
Pens from earlier interactive whiteboards weren’t designed to reflect infrared light, so
the pen tray might not detect them reliably. You can wrap light-colored tape around
the pen to improve the reflection of infrared light and to help with tool detection.
99-00984-20-B0
6 | CHAPTER 1 – ABOUT YOUR SMART BOARD 685IX INTERACTIVE

INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
Environmental Requirements
Before installing your SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard system, review the
following environmental requirements.
SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard systems can operate in a temperature
range of:
• 41°F to 95°F (5°C to 35°C) from sea level to an altitude up to 6000' (0 m to
1829 m)
• 41°F to 86°F (5°C to 30°C) from 6000' to 9800' (1829 m to 2987 m).
The product can withstand storage temperatures from -4°F to 104°F (-20°C to 40°C).
CAUTIONS
• Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a
warm location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature,
moisture can condense on the lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the
system to stabilize to room temperature before operation to prevent possible
damage to the unit.
• In a location at an altitude over 6000' (1829 m), the air is thin and cooling
efficiency is reduced, so use the projector with the fan mode set to High.
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could
cause a malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
Humidity
SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard systems can operate between 30% and
70% humidity, non-condensing. Humidity above 80% can cause slight wrinkling in the
sheet of the SMART Board 685ix series interactive whiteboard. The wrinkles
disappear once the humidity lowers.
Water and Fluid Resistance
SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard systems are for indoor use only and don’t
meet any salt-spray or water ingress requirements. Don’t pour or spray any liquids
directly onto the interactive whiteboard, the UX60 projector or any of its
sub-components. These liquids could get into areas where they could damage
sensitive electronic components. Refer to the chapter on maintenance (beginning on
page 49) for detailed instructions on cleaning your system’s components.

11 | CHAPTER 2 – BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR SMART BOARD 685ix
INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
Dust and Scratching
SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard systems are for use in office and
classroom environments and are not for industrial use, where heavy dust and
pollutants can cause malfunctions or impaired operation. The design is for pollution
degree 1 (P1) as per EN61558-1, which is defined as “No pollution or only dry
non-conductive pollution.”
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard systems meet the requirements of
EN61000-4-2 severity level 4 for direct and indirect ESD. No malfunction or damage
up to 8kV (both polarities) with a 330 ohm, 150 pF probe (air discharge). Unmated
connectors meet 4kV (both polarities) for direct (contact) discharge.
Cables
All cables you connect to the SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard system
should be shielded, to prevent potential accidents and degraded video and
audio quality.
Conducted and Radiated Emissions
The narrowband-radiated electric field from SMART Board 685ix interactive
whiteboard systems meets the limits for Class A performance as defined in EN55022/
CISPR 22.
Choosing a Location
Choose a location for your SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard system far
from bright light sources, such as windows or overhead lighting. Bright light sources
can cause distracting shadows on the interactive whiteboard and can reduce the
contrast of the projected image.
Locate a wall with a flat, regular surface and minimum clearance to accommodate
your interactive whiteboard system. Install the UX60 projector and the SMART Board
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 installation or adjustable installation options, contact
your
authorized SMART reseller.
Recommended Mounting Heights
SMART includes a mounting template with each of its SMART Board 685ix
interactive whiteboard systems. If you lose this template, contact your authorized
SMART reseller. Using this template ensures that you:
• Mount the UX60 projector at a safe height for head space clearance, while
maintaining enough space for airflow and installation access above the unit

12 | CHAPTER 2 – BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR SMART BOARD 685ix
INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
• Position the projector at the correct height above the 685 series 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. Although you should consider the general height of your user
community when you choose a position for the interactive whiteboard, consult your
local regulations before mounting the unit. When mounting the projector on a framed
wall, you must attach both the mounting bracket and 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.
