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.

Assessing the wall

Be sure the wall you're installing the display on can support the weight of the display and mounting
equipment. If it can't, consider using a SMART wall stand to transfer some of the weight from the wall to
the floor (see smarttech.com/accessories).
Note
Refer to the display's specifications for its weight (see More information on page 19).

The location meets the environmental requirements in the display's
l
specifications (see More information on page 19).
The display isn't subjected to strong vibrations or dust.
l
Ventilation systems don't blow air directly on the display.
l
There is adequate ventilation or air conditioning around the display so that
l
heat can flow away from it and the mounting equipment.
SMART recommends at least 2" (5 cm) of space on all sides of the display for
proper airflow.
If you plan to install the display in a recessed area, there is at least 4" (10 cm)
l
of space between the display and the recessed walls to enable ventilation
and cooling.
