Appendix 2: Using Walk-and-Talk Wireless (IR)
Infrared communication is designed to reflect from the ceiling and walls,
enabling it to bounce over the heads of people writing on the board or
sitting near the computer, so a direct line of sight between the board and
the transmitter is not needed.
Hardware requirements:
Ŗ
One serial port or one USB port and serial-to-USB adapter, available
from PolyVision.
Ŗ
Walk-and-Talk Wireless adapter installed in the Walk-and-Talk
whiteboard. (Refer to the
PolyVision Installation and Operation Guide
.)
All Walk-and-Talk whiteboards, including Lightning models (WTL), require a
power supply to work with Walk-and-Talk Wireless.
note:
NOTE:
If you are using the wireless option with a WTL interactive whiteboard, be
sure to connect the power supply provided with the wireless components
to your board and to a power outlet.
The reflected infrared light can fill a standard size conference room or
classroom to provide a very stable communication link between the board
and your computer.
