Choosing a height
SMART includes a mounting template with each interactive whiteboard system. If you lose this
template, contact your authorised SMART reseller. Using this template ensures that you can do
the following:
l
Mount the projector at a safe height for headspace clearance, whilst maintaining enough
space for airflow and installation access above the unit.
l
Position the projector at the correct height above your interactive whiteboard to align the
projected image with the touch screen.
Dimensions on the template recommend a distance from the floor suitable for adults of average
height. You should consider the general height of your user community when you choose a
location for your interactive whiteboard.
Routing the cables
When connecting cables from the SMART UX80 projector to your interactive whiteboard, make
sure that all cables pass between the two interactive whiteboard wall-mounting brackets and that
the cables don’t rest on the wall-mounting brackets.
Installing SMART software
You must install SMART software, such as SMART Notebook™ collaborative learning software
on the computer connected to your interactive whiteboard system to access all of its features.
