STEP 4:

Connect the camera and the computer with the enclosed USB cable.

The camera is fed straight from the computer via the USB port.

ATTENTION:

1.

The maximum length of the USB cable which allows the camera to operate correctly

is 10m.  If the distance between the camera and the computer is farther, the USB

cable with an amplifier should be used. Additional cables can be ordered from the

producer’s or bought in any shop with computers’ accessories.

2.

The camera can be connected with the computer all the time .

3.

The camera should be placed near or directly to the projector on its top surface.

Such   placement   of   the   camera   allows   the   user   to   expose   intuitionally   the   areas

pointed with the electronic pen.

The pen might be overshadowed instead

of full visibility of a picture.

Full (correct) visibility of the pen 

5.

The distance from the screen should be twice farther than the width of the screen,

however,   not   bigger   than   5m.   If   the   distance   is   farther,   the   board   cannot   be

operated   correctly.  If the  sunlight is very  bright,  the  usage of curtains  or roller

blinds is suggested.
