Chapter 2 Installing the display IMPORTANT Move the display at your own risk. SMART cannot accept liability for damages or injury that occur during the display’s transportation. When moving the display Follow local safety regulations and standards. Pack the display in its original packaging, including the pallet. Move the display so that its top frame faces up.
Chapter 2 Installing the display Dealing with cracked, chipped or shattered glass The display contains safety-tempered glass. Although this glass is heat-strengthened to help withstand impacts, the glass can crack, chip or shatter if struck with enough force. (Safety glass is designed to break into small pieces rather than sharp shards if it is broken.) Temperature changes can cause a minor crack or chip to become worse, possibly causing the glass to shatter.
Chapter 2 Installing the display Choosing a location A display is typically installed at the room’s focal point, such as at the front of a classroom or meeting space. Selecting an appropriate location for the display is crucial for ensuring the best possible experience with the product.
Page 23
Chapter 2 Installing the display Factor Considerations Visibility The display’s screen is clearly visible to all users in the room. SMART recommends users sit within a 178° viewing area: NOTE The viewing area depends on the display’s resolution and a variety of other factors.
Chapter 2 Installing the display Choosing a height Consider the general height of the user community when you choose the height for the display. SMART recommends that you mount the display 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.
Chapter 2 Installing the display The display comes with a WM-SBID-200 wall mount. SMART recommends using this wall mount to install the display on a wall. If you choose a third-party option rather than one of SMART’s mounting options, be sure the wall mount can accommodate the display’s dimensions and support the display’s weight as well as the weight of any attached accessories.
Chapter 2 Installing the display The leftmost display (when viewed from the front) is the first display: IMPORTANT Use only standard RS-232 cables. Do not use null modem cables. NOTE For more information about using RS-232 cables for remote management, see Appendix B: Managing the display using RS-232 on page 66.
Chapter 2 Installing the display Connecting to a network The display requires a network and internet connection for downloading software and firmware updates, and a number of the iQ apps require a network connection as well. You can connect to a network using Wi-Fi or one of the RJ45 jacks.
Page 28
Chapter 2 Installing the display NOTES Refer to the display’s specifications for power requirements and power consumption information (see More information on page 18). The AC power output on the back of the display is rated at 250 W. To turn on and set up the display for the first time IMPORTANT Install the OPS PC module before you turn the display on.
