Using the DT770
The Sympodium DT770 interactive pen display is as easy to use as a pen on paper. By touching
your finger or the tethered pen to the screen, you can interact with computer applications
intuitively. In addition, you can access additional tools and features using the pen tool buttons and
function buttons. This chapter tells you how to interact with the screen using your finger or the
tethered pen, as well as how to use the pen tool and function buttons.
NOTE:
You can use SMART Board software to make your presentations interactive and dynamic.
For further information on what you can accomplish with SMART Board software, refer to the
SMART Board Software User’s Guide
or the online Help.
This chapter also includes information about customizing pen tool buttons and changing the
DT770’s default settings.
Touching the Interactive Screen
You can manipulate objects, select items, and create and remove digital ink by touching the screen
with your finger or the tethered pen.
NOTE:
You can interact with the screen only if SMART Board tools are running on the computer.
You’ll know SMART Board tools are open if you can see the SMART Board icon in the system tray
or the Dock.
To use the tethered pen, lift it from the pen recess below the interactive screen, press the required
pen tool button and touch the screen with the tip of the pen. The different pen tool buttons are
discussed on the following pages.
When you lift the pen from the pen recess, the tethered pen indicator illuminates until you return it
to the pen recess.
