over the floor, lay it in a flat, straight line and secure it to the floor with tape or a cable
management strip of a contrasting color. Handle cables carefully and avoid excessive
bending.
C A U T I O N
l Do not 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.
l Do not place the unit in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause a
malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
l Avoid setting up and using the SMART product in an area with excessive levels of dust,
humidity and smoke.
l Do not place your SMART product in direct sunlight or near any appliance that generates a
strong magnetic field.
l If you need to lean the interactive whiteboard against a wall before you mount it, make sure it

C H A P T E R 2
Installing your inter active whiteboard system
Choosing a location
Choose a location for your interactive whiteboard system that’s far from bright light sources, such as
windows and 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 that’s central to
your audience’s viewing direction.
For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller.
W A R N I N G
l Refer to your interactive whiteboard system’s specifications (available at
smarttech.com/support) for its weight. Check your local building codes to ensure that your
wall can support this weight, and use appropriate mounting hardware for your wall type.
l If you are installing the interactive whiteboard system on drywall, use all the included toggle
bolts. If one of the bracket holes aligns with a wall stud, use appropriate hardware in that hole
instead of a toggle bolt.
C A U T I O N
If you’re replacing a SMARTBoard 500 or 600 series interactive whiteboard with the SMARTBoard
800 series interactive whiteboard on drywall, you must remove the wall-mount bracket and
mounting hardware, and then install all the mounting hardware and brackets supplied with your
SMARTBoard 800 series interactive whiteboard instead.
To help ensure that your interactive whiteboard is mounted correctly, make sure the colors of the
wall-mount hanger on the back of the interactive whiteboard and the wall-mount bracket are the same.
Choosing a height
SMART includes a mounting template with each interactive whiteboard system. If you lose this
template, contact your authorized SMART reseller. Using this template ensures that you can do the
following:
l Mount the projector at a safe height for head space clearance, while maintaining enough space
for airflow and installation access above the unit.
8 smarttech.com/kb/170401
C H A P T E R 2
Installing your inter active whiteboard system
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 location
for your interactive whiteboard.
Securing your interactive whiteboard system
This section explains how to secure the different components of your interactive whiteboard system.
Locking the pen tray to your interactive whiteboard
To learn how to lock the pen tray to your interactive whiteboard, see the SMARTBoard 800 series

Securing the projector to the boom
To learn how to secure the SMARTUF70 or SMARTUF70w projector to the boom, see the included
SMARTBoard 880i6 and 885i6 interactive whiteboard system installation guide
(smarttech.com/kb/170499)
Routing the cables
When connecting cables from your SMARTUF70 projector to your interactive whiteboard system,
make sure that all cables pass along the top of the interactive whiteboard wall-mounting bracket and
then down the side of the interactive whiteboard.
When connecting cables from a SMARTUF70w projector to the interactive whiteboard, make sure
that all cables pass between the two interactive whiteboard wall-mounting brackets. Space your wall-
mounting brackets 4" (10.2 cm) apart to provide full support for the weight of your interactive
whiteboard.
