Choosing a height

Consider the general height of the user community when you choose the height for the SMART
product.
SMART recommends that you mount the SMART product so that its top is 6' 5" (1.9 m) from the
floor.
NOTE
If participants will be sitting at a steep angle (such as in a lecture hall), you may have to adjust the
installation height or angle.

Assessing the wall

Be sure the wall you're installing the SMART product on can support the weight of the SMART
product and mounting equipment. If the wall can't support the weight of the SMART product and
mounting equipment, consider using a SMART wall stand to transfer some of the weight from the
wall to the floor (see smarttech.com/accessories).

The location meets the environmental requirements in the
SMART product's specifications.
The SMART product isn't subjected to strong vibrations or dust.
Ventilation systems don't blow air directly on the SMART product.
There is adequate ventilation or air conditioning around the SMART
product so that heat can flow away from it and the mounting equipment.
SMART recommends at least 2" (5 cm) of space on all sides of the
SMART product for proper airflow.
If you plan to install the SMART product in a recessed area, there is at
least 4" (10 cm) of space between the SMART product and the recessed
walls to enable ventilation and cooling.
