Function Buttons
The function buttons provide quick access to frequently used features of
SMART Board software. Press a function button to launch the On-Screen
Keyboard, open an application that helps you organize, save and share notes,
use a palette of drawing tools, take a screen capture or make your next touch
on the screen a right-click.
Changing Video Sources and Controlling Audio
If you have more than one RGB video source connected to the X-Port 40 unit, you
can press a button on the unit’s control panel to switch sources. The source
indicator will light up to show you the source that is currently active. You’ll see the
selected source’s image on the interactive screen, be able to control that source’s
computer applications (if SMART Board software is running) and hear the source’s
sound on a connected audio device. Adjust the sound volume by turning the volume
control dial clockwise to increase the volume or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
