Activating SMARTMeetingPro software after installation35
Adding a unique e-mail address to each computer after installation37
Orienting your SMARTBoard interactive whiteboards after installation38
This chapter provides information on using the following procedures to configure SMARTMeetingPro
software after installation.
l Activating SMARTMeetingPro software after installation
l Adding a unique e-mail address to each computer
l Orienting your SMARTBoard interactive whiteboards
Activating SMARTMeetingPro software after
installation
There are two situations in which the software doesn’t activate completely:
l Imaging a computer: For the software to activate properly, each computer you install it on
must have a unique installation ID. If you use a computer image or clone a hard drive to set up
multiple computers, they all have the same installation ID as the original computer, which can
cause an activation error.
l Protecting software for computer configurations: If you use system recovery or protection
software, you should activate the software before you lock or freeze the computer for your
users. However, if you can’t, you must activate the software afterward.
I M P O R T A N T
SMARTMeetingPro software and SMART Meeting Pro connector for Lync have separate product
keys. You must enter both product keys during the software installation process to use
SMARTMeetingPro software with Lync integration enabled.

7. Restart SMARTMeetingPro software.
Orienting your SMARTBoard interactive
whiteboards after installation
If after you install SMARTMeetingPro software on a multiple display system your touch on one
screen registers on another, you must orient your interactive product again.
Use the following procedure to orient your interactive product using SMARTSettings.
T I P
You can also access the screen orientation procedure from the Pen Tray. See your interactive
product’s user’s guide for more information.
g To orient multiple interactive products
Press the SMARTMeetingPro iconin the notification area, and then select
1.
SMARTSettings.

C H A P T E R 4
Configuring SMARTMeetingPro software
If your computer isn’t currently connected to an interactive product, the SMARTMeetingPro
icon is gray and includes an X in its lower-right corner .
2. Select SMART Hardware Settings.
The upper area of the widow displays an image for each interactive product connected to the
computer.
3. Select the interactive product you want to orient.
4. Press Orient.
N O T E
Sometimes, the orientation screen appears on your primary interactive product instead of the
interactive product you want to orient. If this happens press SPACEBAR until the orientation
screen appears on the interactive product you want to orient.
5. Touch the center of each target in the order indicated. The computer registers the point on the
interactive product where you remove your finger or pen tool from the surface.
The orientation procedure involves pressing 4, 9, 12 or 20 targets, depending on the orientation
level you select (see the SMARTMeetingPro software online Help for more information on
changing the orientation level of your interactive product).

Chapter 7
SMART periodically releases updates to its software. These updates add new features and resolve
issues.
Go to smarttech.com/software to download the latest installation package. SMART provides updates
in MSI file format in the installation package:
l Windows Installer update installation packages (MSI files)
After you download an installation package and extract the update files, place the update files in a
location on your network that’s accessible to all the computers you plan to update.
I M P O R T A N T
You cannot roll back an update after installing it on your computers. You must remove the full
version of the software using Control Panel or the command line interface (see Removing the
software on page 65), and then install the previous version of the software.
Using a Windows Installer update installation
package (MSI file)
The command line for running an update using a Windows Installer update installation package varies
depending on whether the update is major or minor.
