Appendix 3: Using the TS Wireless option (IR)
TS Wireless uses reflected infrared (IR) light to communicate between
transceivers on your whiteboard and your computer. A direct line of sight
between the transceivers is not needed for reliable communication. Both
transceivers are designed to shine and detect IR light using the ceiling.
Install TS Wireless so both transceivers have an unobstructed view of the
area of the ceiling between the two transceivers. This allows the IR from
each transceiver to bounce over the heads of people writing on the board
and sitting near the computer.
TS Wireless works best when the two transceivers are within 24 feet (7 m)
of one another. The TS wireless option only words with TS interactive
whiteboards.
Ceiling height and material also make a difference in performance. The
higher the ceiling, the closer together the transceivers need to be. A non-IR
reflective ceiling also reduces the range. The 24-foot (7 m) range assumes
a typical office conference room with a ceiling height of between 8 and 12
feet (2.5 and 3.5 m) and a light-colored, acoustic tile ceiling. If your ceiling
is not IR reflective, try using one of your walls. Do this by mounting one
transceiver on the side of your whiteboard and pointing the other
transceiver toward the wall on that side of the whiteboard.
Position the transceiver so the curved edge of the transceiver points
toward the transceiver on the board.
