Overview
Rear projection allows you to stand in front of the interactive whiteboard without casting a shadow.
In addition, the touch-sensitive screen enables you to do everything you can do at a computer
workstation—open files, conference with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, play
video clips, and so on—simply by touching the interactive whiteboard. You can also write over
applications in electronic ink using your finger or a pen tray pen, and then save your notes in
SMART Notebook™ software for future reference and distribution.
The SMART Board interactive whiteboard uses DViT™ (Digital-Vision Touch) technology for touch
and tool recognition. This technology uses specialized digital cameras in the screen corners to
track the position of a pen tray tool or your finger and to communicate that position to a computer.
The In-Wall Rear Projection SMART Board interactive whiteboard is designed to be set into the
wall of a customized meeting room or classroom. Your projector casts a computer image directly
onto the screen from a rear projection room.
NOTE: You can use any projector with the 1710, 1810 or 1910 interactive whiteboard. The 2865
and 2965 interactive whiteboards include an NEC MT1065 projector.
This guide helps you install the current models of In-Wall Rear Projection SMART Board
interactive whiteboards, including the following:
•
1710 (66" diagonal (167.6 cm) screen)
•
1810 (71" diagonal (180.3 cm) screen)
•
1910 (84" diagonal (213.4 cm) screen)
•
2865 (71" diagonal (180.3 cm) screen with a mirror stand and a projector)
•
2965 (84" diagonal (213.4 cm) screen with a mirror stand and a projector)
You will need to create a wall opening and install the interactive whiteboard into this opening. The
In-Wall Rear Projection SMART Board interactive whiteboard is designed for use with a computer
and a projector, so you'll need a projection room behind the interactive whiteboard to house the
projector and the computer. However, you can locate the computer in the same room as the
screen if that location is more convenient.
The projection room dimensions can vary, depending on the distance that your projector can
"throw" the image. For example, with an 1810, you might need to place the projector 8' to 12'
(2.4 m to 3.7 m) from the screen. If the throw distance for your projector is longer than your room,
you can install one or two mirrors to project the correct image size onto the screen. Consult with
your projector manual or your projector dealer for details on setting up your projector.
In addition to the interactive screen, each model comes with:
•
a pen tray that attaches to the wall beneath the screen
•
four pens and an eraser that fit into the slots in the pen tray
•
a wireless keyboard with a built-in trackball mouse (provided only in North America, Australia
and Europe, and only for Microsoft® Windows® operating systems)
•
a keyboard bracket with a built-in infrared (IR) receiver
