Calibrating your interactive whiteboard

Digital cameras in the corners of the interactive whiteboard track the position of the pens and
your finger on the interactive surface and then send the information to the SMART software,
which interprets this information as mouse clicks, digital ink or ink removal in the appropriate
location.
If you haven't used your interactive whiteboard before, you must perform a calibration. This
process ensures that the cameras accurately track your finger and the pens on the interactive
surface. If the system detects incorrect calibration parameters, a warning bubble may also
appear recommending that you perform a calibration.
To calibrate your interactive whiteboard
1. The first time you connect your interactive whiteboard, press the Please calibrate the
SMART Board interactive whiteboard pop-up bubble that appears in the bottom right
corner of your screen.
If the pop-up doesn't appear, click the SMART software icon in the Windows notification
area or Mac Dock and select SMART Settings > SMART Hardware Settings >
Advanced > Calibrate.
The calibration window opens.
