CHAPTER 2
USING BASIC FEATURES
Using the pens and erasers
The display comes with black, red, blue and green pens and
two erasers. You can use the pens to write and draw in digital
ink on the display, and you can use the erasers—or your palm
or fist—to erase digital ink.
There are magnetic holders for the pens and erasers at the
bottom of the display. Removing a pen from its holder
activates it. Return the pens and erasers to their holders when
you’re done with them. Returning a pen to its holder charges it.
CAUTION
When you return a pen or eraser to its holder, make sure it’s centered in the holder to keep it
from falling and being damaged. Pens’ lights turn on to indicate that they’re properly positioned
in their holders.
Pairing the pens with the display
After you install the display and turn it on for the first time, place the pens in the holders for at least
five minutes. This pairs the pens with the display and charges them for testing purposes.
IMPORTANT
l Use only pens designed for SMARTBoard 7000R and 7000R Pro series interactive displays.
Pens for other SMARTproducts, including SMARTBoard 7000 and 7000 Pro series
interactive displays, aren’t compatible with SMARTBoard 7000R and 7000R Pro series
interactive displays (see smarttech.com/kb/171230).
l If you previously paired a pen with a SMART Board 7000R or 7000R Pro series interactive
display, you must pair it with another display to use it with that display.
l To fully charge the pens, keep them in the holders for at least four hours before you start
using the display.
Writing and drawing in digital ink
Up to four users can write or draw on the screen at the same time. Each pen writes and draws in its
own color. The PenID™ feature enables you to assign different colors, thicknesses, and other
properties to each pen.
18smarttech.com/kb/171539
CHAPTER 2
USING BASIC FEATURES
To write or draw in digital ink
1. Pick up one of the display’s pens.
2. Use the pen to write or draw in digital ink.
TIPS
o
When you’re writing or drawing with a pen, you can rest your palm on the screen. The
display won’t interpret your palm as a pen or an eraser.
o
To learn how to change a pen’s default behavior, see Changing a pen’s default color,
thickness, and other properties below.
o
Before writing or drawing over a video, an animation, or other moving images, freeze
the screen (see Freezing the screen on page21).
Using the SMART Ink® dynamic (floating) toolbar
If you pick up a pen while viewing a connected computer’s input, the
dynamic (floating) toolbar for SMART Ink appears on the screen. You
can use this toolbar to change the pen’s color, thickness or other
properties temporarily, or use some of SMART Ink’s tools such as
screen capture, spotlight, screen shade, and so on.
To learn more about using SMART Ink and its toolbar, visit the SMART
Ink support page. Here are a few quick links to get you started:
l Turning SMART Ink on or off
l Open the toolbar
l Close the toolbar (keep SMART Ink on, but hide the floating toolbar)
l Using presentation tools, such as Spotlight, Magnifier, and Screen Shade
Changing a pen’s default color, thickness, and other properties
You can change a pen’s color, thickness, and other properties temporarily using the SMARTInk
dynamic (floating) toolbar when you’re viewing a connected computer’s input. However, when you
return the pen to its holder, the pen returns to its default color, thickness, and other properties.
To change the pen’s default color, thickness, and other properties, see Changing pen, eraser, and
button settings.
