Using a SMART GoWire cable
Any computer connected to your interactive flat panel requires SMART software. Typically, you
install this software on your room computer so that it's always ready to use.
However, if you want to connect a laptop that doesn't have SMART software installed, you can
connect a SMART GoWire cable from the laptop to the USB cable for your interactive flat panel.
The SMART GoWire cable enables you to have touch control of your laptop and use
SMART Meeting Pro software without installing the software on your laptop.
A SMART GoWire cable is included with SMART Board 8055i-SMP and 8055ie-SMP interactive
flat panels.
I M P O R T A N T
Your interactive flat panel supports the SMART GoWire cable with SMART Meeting Pro
software only. It does not support the SMART GoWire cable with SMART Notebook software.
