Take into consideration that the interactive pen display generates heat when it is turned on. To
maintain a consistent operating temperature, do not block or cover any of the ventilation holes on the
back of the unit. Other external factors can affect the interactive pen display, such as the heat
generated by control systems or other electronic equipment. Make sure that there is adequate airflow
around the unit.
Use your computer's mouse and keyboard to install SMART Product Drivers before you install your
interactive pen display. Your interactive pen display cannot provide keyboard or tethered pen
functionality until you install SMART Product Drivers. You should also keep your computer within 5m
(16') of the unit or use an active USB extender. This protects against signal degradation that occurs
with a longer USB cable. The video cable also has length limitations, so you should not use an RGB
video cable longer than 15m (50').
Setting up your work area
Organise your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your interactive pen display and your
keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. You should be able to comfortably view the
interactive pen display and any other displays with a minimum of eye strain.
Because the interactive pen display surface is a little higher than your desk, you can adjust the height
of your chair to ensure comfortable use of the device.
You can also mount the interactive pen display onto articulated arms or other third-party stands
meeting the VESA 100 specification for display stands.
Changing the angle of your interactive pen display
You can recline the Smooth Tilt Stand to change the angle and height of your interactive pen display.
To alleviate glare, you can use the attached Smooth Tilt Stand to angle the interactive pen display.
