Hardware Basics for Front Projection SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards

Hardware Basics for Front Projection SMART Board Interactive Whiteboards The SMART Board interactive whiteboard is touch sensitive and operates as part of a system that includes a computer and a projector. The computer sends an image of an application to the projector. The projector casts the image onto the interactive whiteboard. The interactive whiteboard acts as both the monitor and input device, allowing you to control any application by touching the screen. It may help you to think of your interactive whiteboard the same way you think of your mouse or keyboard it is an input device that enables you to control applications on your computer. Setup instructions depend on the model of SMART Board interactive whiteboard. Specific instructions on how to setup your SMART Board can be found at www.smarttech.com/ support/product/index.asp. The SMART Pen Tray The SMART Pen Tray consists of four color-coded slots for pens and one slot for the eraser. Each slot has an optical sensor to identify when the pens and eraser have been picked up. You can write with the pen or with your finger, as long as the pen slot is empty. The technology in the pen tray is smart enough to know which tool was removed from its slot most recently. If you remove the eraser from its slot while you are still holding a pen, the pen tray will assume you want to erase. The lights above the tool slots indicate which tool was removed last. TIP: If someone accidentally takes a pen or the eraser home, simply cover the optical sensor with a pen lid or a sticky note to continue using your interactive whiteboard until the tool is returned. 2

The Pen-Tray Buttons The pen tray has at least two pen-tray buttons. One button is used to launch the On-Screen Keyboard. The second button is used to make your next touch on the interactive whiteboard a right-click. Some interactive whiteboards have a third button; this button is used to quickly access the Help Center. Pen tray buttons Pen tray buttons The Pens The SMART Board interactive whiteboard comes with four Whisper-tip pens (black, red, green and blue) and one eraser. Although you do not need to use the pens to write on you interactive whiteboard, the pens do make writing more intuitive. Pick up a pen from the pen tray and write on the SMART Board. To erase your digital ink, remove the eraser from the pen tray and move it in a smooth motion over your notes. Your notes will disappear. TIP: To clear a large area of digital ink, draw a circle around the area you want to erase with the eraser and tap once inside that area. All handwritten notes inside that circle will disappear. The Ready Light The Ready Light indicates the status of your interactive whiteboard. Depending on the model of the SMART Board interactive whiteboard you are using, the Ready Light is located either on the right side of the pen tray or the lower-right of the frame bezel. Ready Light on right side of pen tray Ready Light on lower-right of frame bezel If the Ready Light is a solid green, your system is functioning properly. If the Ready Light is flashing or is a color other than green for an extended period of time, you should check the User s Guide that came with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard for guidance on troubleshooting. NOTE: After you turn on your computer, the Ready Light will be red while the SMART Board interactive whiteboard and the computer are establishing communication. 2008 SMART Technologies ULC.

SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard Basics This Quick Reference Guide provides an overview of the information you need to begin using a SMART Board interactive whiteboard. Before you begin, make sure the appropriate SMART Board software has been loaded on your computer. For more information, refer to your SMART Board User s Guide. Starting the SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard 1 Ensure the interactive whiteboard and projector are connected to the computer. 2 Turn on the projector, then the computer. The interactive whiteboard draws power from the computer and will be activated automatically. The Ready Light, indicating the status of your interactive whiteboard, will be red while the SMART Board and the computer are establishing communication. NOTE: Depending on the model of the SMART Board interactive whiteboard you are using, the Ready Light is either located on the right side of the SMART Pen Tray or the lower-right of the frame bezel. Ready Light on right side of pen tray Ready Light on lowerright of frame bezel 3 Log on, if required, using the computer keyboard. When the Ready Light on the pen tray turns green, the computer and the interactive whiteboard have established communication. The SMART Board is now touch sensitive, and you can open any application available on the connected computer. Orienting the SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard You should orient your interactive whiteboard when setting it up, or if either the projector or interactive whiteboard has been moved since you last used it. 1 Press and hold the Keyboard and the Right Mouse button simultaneously until the Orientation screen appears. Pen tray buttons Pen tray buttons 2 Begin the orientation process at the upper left corner of the Orientation screen. Press your finger or pen firmly on the center of each cross in the order indicated by the white, diamond-shaped graphic. Orientation screen 4

Your Finger Is Your Mouse A press on a SMART Board interactive whiteboard is the same as a left-click with a mouse. To open an application such as an Internet browser, double-press the application icon with your finger. Writing and Erasing Notes To write over your desktop image or application, pick up a pen from the pen tray and write on the interactive whiteboard. To write in a different color, pick up a different-colored pen. The color recognition comes from the optical sensors in the pen-tray slots and not from the pens themselves. Pick up the eraser from the pen tray and move it in a smooth motion over your notes to erase them. NOTE: The interactive whiteboard only recognizes the last tool removed from the pen tray. For example, if you already have a pen in your hand when you pick up the eraser, the interactive whiteboard will assume you want to erase, regardless of whether you touch the board with a pen or an eraser. To avoid confusion, return each tool to its proper slot when you have finished using it. Saving Your Notes You can easily save the notes you have written on your interactive whiteboard for future reference. 1 Pick up a pen from the pen tray. The Digital Ink Layer border will appear on your screen. To save what you write on the board when this layer is in place, press the Capture writing button in the top right hand corner of the border. An image of the screen including your writing will be saved in a new Notebook file.. NOTE: If the Digital Ink Layer border does not appear when you pick up a pen, you may be working in an Ink Aware application (e.g., Microsoft Word). If the application is Ink Aware, buttons will be available in the application s own toolbar for capturing writing. Digital Ink Layer border Clear writing Capture writing Close Digital Ink Layer 2 If you wish to capture a specific area of your screen, press the SMART Board icon located in the Windows Notification Area at the bottom right of your screen, and choose Other SMART Tools > Screen Capture Toolbar... from the menu to launch the Screen Capture toolbar Area Capture button 3 To save a selected area of your notes, press the Area Capture button on the Screen Capture toolbar. Press the interactive whiteboard and, without releasing pressure, drag the selection box using your finger to outline the area you want to capture. NOTE: The Screen Capture button in Ink Aware applications will capture an image of your entire screen. 4 Notebook software will open automatically, and your capture will be saved to a new Notebook page. 5 Select the unsaved Notebook file from the taskbar to view your captured image in Notebook software. Select File > Save to save your notes for future reference. 2006 SMART Technologies Inc. All rights reserved. SMART Board, Notebook and the SMART logo are trademarks of SMART Technologies Inc.

Using Microsoft Office Applications with SMART software When software is Ink Aware, you can write and draw directly into an active file. When you save an Ink Aware application file, your notes and drawings will be visible the next time you open it. Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint software are the most commonly used Ink Aware applications. Microsoft Word and Excel software When using Microsoft Word or Excel software with your interactive whiteboard, you will notice four new buttons. They may be integrated with the current toolbar or separated as a floating toolbar. Example: Pressing the Insert Drawing as Text button Before you press the button, the image is not part of the file. Press the button and the image becomes part of the Microsoft Excel software file. After pressing the Insert as Text button, your writing will appear in the selected cell as text. 6
