 If the inking works in part of the board, but not in the middle of the board or in 

one or multiple corners and gets worse over time, you have a potential mounting 
issue in terms of flatness of the mounting surface. The board should be removed 
from the wall and calibrated. If the problem persists off the wall, please contact 
support. If the problem goes away off the wall, inspect the wall/mount for issues.

4.6.1.

 

 Ensure that when you are holding the pen you are not blocking the black plastic 
cone. The cameras on the corners need to see this cone to function properly. 

4.6.2.

 

Also ensure that you are keeping the pen within a 45-degree perpendicular 

angle to the IFP. Too steep of an angle can cause the cameras to have issue 
seeing the pen properly

corrupted you may see this message. This can be found in the SMART Hardware 
Settings. You may find that using a closed fist as opposed to pen finger will work, 
and then you can go back and try a pen or finger if successful. A closed fist can 
provide a bigger target to calibrate against, and then it can be refined with a 
pen/finger.
