Installing SMART Product Drivers
The SMART Board M600 series interactive whiteboard’s USB interface enables you to connect the
interactive whiteboard to a computer. The included USB cable provides a digital signal from the
computer to the interactive whiteboard, and the included power supply provides power to the
interactive whiteboard.
Matching the computer’s resolution to the
projector’s resolution
Ensure that the resolution settings for the projector and computer match. If the computer’s
resolution doesn’t match the projector’s native resolution, the image won’t fill the interactive
surface properly and can shimmer or appear distorted.
Set the projector to its optimal image resolution by following the instructions included with the
projector, and then set the computer’s resolution to match. If you need help changing the
computer’s resolution, see the instructions included with your computer’s operating system.
You might need to adjust the computer’s refresh rate to obtain the best results. Set the computer
to an initial refresh rate of 60 Hz, and then adjust this rate up or down to determine the ideal refresh
rate. For more information on changing your computer’s refresh rate, see the instructions included
with the computer’s operating system.
