Installing the SMART Board Software

The installation process should start automatically after you insert the SMART Board software CD
into your CD-ROM drive. Otherwise, install the software as follows.
To install SMART Board software for Windows operating systems
1. Insert the SMART Board software CD into your CD-ROM drive.
The SMART Board software setup program should start automatically. If it doesn't, select Start
> Run and enter x:\autorun.exe (where x: is your CD-ROM drive). Follow the on-screen
instructions to install SMART Board software.
At the end of the installation, you can choose to put a shortcut to SMART Board software in
your Startup Folder. We recommend that you do so. Then the SMART Board tools will always
be open, and your interactive whiteboard will be fully functional whenever you start up your
system.
2. Click Yes to insert a shortcut to SMART Board software in the Startup folder, or click No to
prevent SMART Board software from starting whenever you start up your system.
To install SMART Board software for Macintosh computers
1. Insert the SMART Board software CD into your CD-ROM drive.
2. Double-click the SMART Installer icon.
The SMART Installer window appears.
3. Click the Continue button and then follow the instructions on your screen.

Configuring and Orienting the Interactive Whiteboard

After you install SMART Board software, you must configure and orient the interactive whiteboard.
You may need to specify whether the serial or USB port on the host computer connects to the
interactive whiteboard. If you're running SMART Board driver version 6.0 (or later), the COM port
configuration process is entirely automatic, unless:
the Windows operating system you're running does not perform plug and play (e.g.,
Windows NT 4.0 or ME)
the Windows operating system fails to announce that it has Found New Hardware
Then you must manually configure the COM port. After you do this, you should orient the
interactive whiteboard to ensure accurate tracking of your finger or a pen tray tool. If the projected
image becomes misaligned, you must perform the orientation procedure again.
To select a COM port for the interactive whiteboard
1. Select Start > Programs > SMART Board Software > SMART Board Tools.
2. Click the SMART Board icon in the system tray and select Control Panel.
The SMART Board Control Panel appears.
3. On the Boards tab, click the Connect button.
The Select COM Port dialog box appears.
