The whiteboard sends data to its internal computer by detecting a reflected
laser beam from the marker, stylus, or eraser.
The Impulse system can distinguish marker color by reading the reflective
band on the marker. When the marker’s cap is in place, the marker
becomes a stylus.
While projecting captured images or your laptop computer, use the
markers to write anywhere on the board. Use the stylus as a mouse to
operate the on-screen functions. Two mouse modes are available. Refer to
“Choosing a Projection Mode” on page 25.
The Impulse system includes a large rectangular eraser. A reflective band
on the eraser identifies it as an eraser to the Impulse system.
Whenever you use the board, make sure there is only one point of contact
at a time, and use only the recommended markers and erasers. A bin
below the board stores a large supply of markers. Ninety-six markers are
included with the board and more can be ordered from your dealer or from
PolyVision. (Refer to “How to Obtain Replacement Parts” on page 49.)
