9 smarttech.com/kb/170800
Choosing a mounting location
Consider the following when you select a location for the interactive flat panel:
l
Choose a location for the interactive flat panel that’s far from bright light sources, such as
windows and strong overhead lighting. IR lighting can cause issues with the performance of
the cameras and can lead to unintentional or missed touches.
l
The wall must be strong enough to support the interactive flat panel and the mounting
equipment. See the table below for the weights of the various 4000 series interactive flat
panel models:
Model Weight
SMART Board 4055 116 lb (53 kg)
SMART Board 4065 153 lb (69.4)
SMART Board 4075 189 lb (86 kg)
SMART Board 4084 238 lb (108 kg)
l
Select a wall with a flat, regular surface and sufficient clearance to accommodate your
interactive flat panel. Mount the interactive flat panel in a location that’s central to your
audience’s viewing direction.
For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller
( smarttech.com/where ).
Choosing a mounting height
Consider the general height of the user community when you choose the height for the interactive
flat panel.
The flat panel height is based on the midpoint between the reach of the students and the teacher.
