CALIBRATION
Calibrating your interactive whiteboard (Promethean/SMART*) with the
connected computer via the Synch device is essential to the proper
screen orientation and operation with your TANDBERG system.

First time SMART Board installs should first run the 12-POINT calibration
routine for first time SMART Board installation as instructed in the SMART
documentation. Then follow the appropriate set of instructions for
CALIBRATION with or without SMART Notebook software.

Annotation and interactive software functionality is only
possible when the respective whiteboard software is installed on the
connected computer. If the appropriate software is not installed on the
connected computer, you must calibrate using DIRECT MODE.
SYNCH CALIBRATION: SMART
