When your projector is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture might condense on the lens and on crucial internal parts.
  • Page 17: Choosing A Location For Your Smart Board Interactive Whiteboard System

    Choosing a Location for Your SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard System Choose a location for your SMART Board interactive whiteboard system that’s far from bright light sources and direct sunlight such as a window or overhead lighting. Bright light sources can cause distracting shadows on the interactive whiteboard and reduce the contrast of the projected image.
  • Page 18: Adjusting The Image Alignment

    Adjusting the Image Alignment After you install the UF55 projector with your SMART Board 500 series interactive whiteboard, you must adjust the image alignment. Diagnosing Alignment Errors Keystone errors occur when the projected image isn’t perpendicular to the screen. From the projector, the image path is From the projector, the image path is shorter along the top.
  • Page 19 Adjust the interactive whiteboard side to side to center the image (from the projector), as illustrated in the installation document, the Parts Kit for SMART Board 560 and 580 Interactive Whiteboards and UF55 Projectors (document 134836). This eliminates many keystone errors. If your installation environment prevents you from moving the interactive whiteboard, you can adjust the projector boom for optimal image alignment.
  • Page 20 Tilt the projector left or right, up or down, or move it from side to side, until the top edge of the projector image is parallel with the top edge of the interactive whiteboard. Installing Your UF55 Projector Parts Kit 99-00964-20 A0...
  • Page 21 Adjust the vertical keystone alignment for the projected image. If the bottom edge of the projected image is smaller than the top edge of the projected image, and the sides of the projected image slope inward toward the bottom of the projected image, tilt the projector down or raise the projector’s mounting boom to lower the image.
  • Page 22 Adjust the projected image’s horizontal alignment by turning the projector left or right, until the top and bottom edges of the projected image are horizonally parallel. NOTE: Don’t pay attention to the position of the left and right edges in relation to the interactive whiteboard during this step.
  • Page 23 Adjust the physical size of the projected image to fit the interactive whiteboard. If you haven’t already done so, loosen the large wingnut on the top of the ball joint to allow the projector to move backward and forward in the slot. Move the projector backward or forward on the boom to make the image larger or smaller.
  • Page 24: Focusing The Image

    Focusing the Image NOTE: Ensure that you remove the plastic lens cover from the projector. To focus the projected image, use the Focus Ring, located on the bottom of the UF55 projector (when the projector is attached to the boom). To focus and adjust the image Rotate the Focus Ring lever right or left until the image is clear.
