The 3M Digital WallDisplay recognizes dry-erase marker writing by signalling the marker’s exact location to the
bezel. These signals are created and transmitted by small sensors near the ends of the battery-powered marker
sleeves.
To prepare the digital markers:
1. Unscrew the end cap on the marker sleeve, turning it counterclockwise. Insert two coin batteries
(CR2032), with the positive (+) side up. Screw the end cap back on, clockwise.
2. Press the ridged release button on the side of the marker sleeve, beneath the clip, to open the marker
compartment.
3. Remove the cap from a bullet-tip dry-erase marker. Be sure the marker color matches the color ring on
the marker sleeve. Insert the marker into the eBeam sleeve. Close the marker compartment.
Note:The eBeam Software detects the color of the marker sleeve, not the color of the marker inside it,
unless specifically changed. Normal pressure on the marker as you write on the 3M Digital
WallDisplay screen sends a “writing” signal in that sleeve’s designated color.
4. Cap the marker sleeve to keep the marker tip from drying out, just as you would with any other type of
marker. The cap also prevents sending signals when not in use.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for all other marker sleeves.
Note:The signal transmitter in the digital sleeve is located just behind the tip of the marker. Grasp the sleeve
by the main barrel so your fingers will not block the signal.
CAUTION
These batteries contain lithium. Consult your local hazardous
waste regulations and dispose of these batteries in the proper
manner.
The digital eraser erases marker input by sending signals from the digital eraser in the same way as the digital
markers. The eraser sends an “erase” signal when you press the felt eraser against the 3M Digital WallDisplay
screen.
Remove the battery cover on the top of the digital eraser by twisting a coin counterclockwise in the slot. Insert
two coin batteries (CR2032), with the positive (+) side up. Screw the cover back on.
CAUTION
These batteries contain lithium. Consult your local hazardous
waste regulations and dispose of these batteries in the proper
manner.

3M™ Digital WallDisplay
WallDisplay as a Copyboard or Digital
Whiteboard
Copyboard Mode
This mode lets the 3M Digital WallDisplay unit capture all the data from the screen and print it to a printer connected directly to the 3M Digital WallDisplay. No computer is needed to run this system. This mode should be
used without projection.
Note: 3M Classroom Display, 3M Briefing Display, and 3M Whiteboard Display are compatible only with the
PCL3 printers listed on Appendix page 50.
Whiteboard Mode (8200IC only)
You can use this mode without projection, to function as an electronic whiteboard. You can save, print to a PC or
networked printer (but not the printer connected to the 3M Digital WallDisplay), and share the meeting over a
network. It is not recommended to run projection in this mode because you will see the data from the projector
and the writing on the screen at the same time. The Print button on this system will work the same as the Print
command from the menu system, and the Clear button will start a new page.
Projection Mode (8200IC only)
The second way to use Whiteboard Display with a computer is in Projection mode. In this mode, your computer’s desktop is projected on the 3M Digital WallDisplay screen and the Whiteboard system can be used as a
touch screen. For this mode, use the Digital Mouse stylus insert instead of the dry-erase markers. The stylus is
used the same way a mouse is used on a PC (including the right-click function), but the Print and Clear buttons
will have no effect.

Try the following:
•To serve as the meeting host, your computer must be
attached to the eBeam Hardware. See
Hosting/Sharing
a Meeting.
• If you are attempting to share a meeting, make sure that
you have the eBeam Hardware connected. See
Hosting/Sharing a Meeting.
• If your network/Internet connection is behind a firewall or
proxy server, you will have to set up the proxy server.
See Proxy Server Setup.
• If you are attempting to share a meeting, make sure that
you have the eBeam Hardware connected. See
Hosting/Sharing a Meeting.
• If your network/Internet connection is behind a firewall or
proxy server, you will have to set up the proxy server.
See
Proxy Server Setup.
Even if you think you aren’t behind a proxy server/firewall, you
might be. Your ISP might have a firewall set up, causing this
problem. Try:
• Add a new server (see
Adding a Meeting Server) with
a DNS: meetings.e-beam.com, and port: 443.
• This option is only available in version 2.1 and later.
Newer versions of the software automatically attempt to
connect through port 443, but it may be necessary to
manually set up the server as described previously.
• When the meeting host shares the meeting through the
Share Meeting dialog box (see Hosting/Sharing a
Meeting
), they can select whether or not to publish the
meeting name. if the meeting name is published, then it
will show up in the Join Meeting dialog box. if the meet
ing name is not published, then other meeting partici
pants must manually type the meeting name into the
meeting name text box.
•To publish the meeting name, make sure that the
Publish meeting name check box in the Share
Meeting dialog box is checked.
• Does your intranet have a proxy server/firewall? Most
intranets do. If you have not done so, enable your proxy
server. See

against the 3M Digital WallDisplay when you write. The
marker is designed to write with a normal amount of
pressure by the writer; however, it is possible to write so
softly that the marker does not send out a signal.
• Make sure you are using the correct color digital marker
sleeve. The color of the digital marker sleeve is shown
on a color ring located near the tip of the digital marker.
• Check the color set for the sleeve in the Sleeve Settings
dialog box (see Setting Pen Colors/Line Thickness). It
is possible to set a different color in the software for any
eBeam digital marker.
