Cleaning the camera windows and reflective tape
The interactive flat panels’ DViT technology uses four cameras in the corners of the frames and the
reflective material between the screens and the frames. Dust buildup on the camera windows or
reflective tape can impair touch performance.
Inspect these areas regularly for dust and clean them if any obvious dust buildup has occurred.
CAUTION
l
Do not use compressed air to clean the camera windows or borders.
l
Do not use water, chemicals or cleaning agents.
l
Applying too much pressure when cleaning the tape or cameras can damage the tape and
cameras and cause performance issues or errors.
To clean the camera windows and reflective tape
1. Turn off your room system (see
on page 13), and then disconnect
the power sources for the interactive flat panels.
2. Using a clean lint-free cloth, gently wipe the camera windows in the top corners and the
reflective tape along the top of the interactive flat panel screens.
3. Gently wipe the reflective tape along the sides of the interactive flat panel screens.
4. Gently wipe the camera windows in the bottom corners and the reflective strip across the
bottom of the interactive flat panel screens.
Maintaining ventilation
The interactive flat panels require proper ventilation. Dust buildup in the ventilation holes
compromises cooling and can lead to product failure.
l
Clean accessible ventilation holes monthly with a dry cloth.
l
Use a vacuum cleaner with a narrow hose-end attachment to clear the back ventilation holes
regularly.
CAUTION
Avoid setting up or using your room system in an area with excessive levels of dust, humidity or
smoke.
