Installation and Configuration
It is the customer's responsibility for any mounting of the
Whiteboard and/or projector if that is required. This includes
the determination of whether their room has the appropriate
fixtures for mounting.
Where the customer makes use of their own cabling
PictureTel will not be responsible for that cabling nor the
operation of the equipment over the cabling. If PictureTel
installation has been chosen then the engineer will test the
functionality and prove the system with their own cables.
The PictureTel solution can run on most IBM compatible
PC's in accordance with the PC specification supplied above.
However, PictureTel cannot be held responsible for any
conflicts on the customer supplied PC with the whiteboarding
software or Netmeeting.
Note: The whiteboards are supplied with wall mounting
brackets. It is important that the 2 brackets are used o
support the Whiteboard on the bottom rim. There are 2
further brackets on the rear of the board that are only used to
balance the board and are not designed to be weight bearing.

exactly the same as normal whiteboards and flipcharts
thus making it easier to accept by users

write on using normal dry marker pens . The personal
Whiteboard is unique in that the local user can actually
write on normal paper placed on the mat. The
Whiteboard can also be used to trace large drawings (e.g.
A0 autocad). This range of features is not available from
any of the competition.
c) Scalable - Whole range of products from Whiteboard to
Flipchart to personal Whiteboard to fit any budget
d) Durable - The whiteboards and flipcharts are as durable
as normal whiteboards because they contain no moving
parts (SoftBoard does) and no delicate material (Smart
