SMART systems: electrical components
Use components that meet the SMART interactive displays' requirements to ensure that the
product works as expected. This section describes the components' requirements and
provides guidelines for selecting components for use with a SMART interactive product.
It is best practice to use components manufactured by established, reputable companies.
Open Pluggable Slot computers
SMART currently offers two types of open pluggable socket (OPS) computers:
•
AM30 (-ENT or -EDU)
•
AM40 (-ENT or -EDU)
•
AM70-L
The AM30/40 and the AM70-L are self-contained systems and include the software that makes
them work with SMART hardware. The AM30/40 are also referred to as the iQ appliance. An
iQ appliance is included with the SMART kapp iQ board or as part of the 6000i/8000i-G5
series interactive display upgrade kit. The AM70-L (also known as the room system appliance)
is included only as part of the SMART Room System for Skype for Business.
Several issues can accompany the use of a non-standard computer:
•
Touch, video, or audio might not work correctly
•
Additional drivers might not be supported
•
OPS overheating or other thermal issues can result
•
OPS might not receive full power
IMPORTANT:
SMART interactive displays do not support "hot plugging" of OPS computers
through the OPS slot. "Hot Plugging" describes the removal of the OPS while power is applied.
Minimum requirements
Use only an OPS that has the following characteristics:
Active cooling
not required

Although older interactive displays (Generation 4) can support OPS
computers that require active cooling from fans within the display.
