Appendix A: Using an Interactive Whiteboard<br />

without a Projector<br />

Warning<br />

If you own a <strong>SMART</strong><br />

<strong>Board</strong> interactive<br />

whiteboard with<br />

OptiPro disregard this<br />

section. The OptiPro<br />

surface is optimized for<br />

use with a projector and<br />

should not be marked<br />

with dry-erase ink.<br />

Tip<br />

Use the <strong>SMART</strong> Zoom<br />

feature in Notebook<br />

software. <strong>SMART</strong> Zoom<br />

accommodates the entire<br />

workspace without<br />

scrolling, ensuring that<br />

whatever you write on the<br />

board will be displayed on<br />

your monitor. Select<br />

View > Zoom > <strong>SMART</strong><br />

Zoom.<br />

In non-projected (whiteboard mode), you can write on the interactive whiteboard with dryerase<br />

markers just as you would on an ordinary whiteboard. Unlike an ordinary whiteboard,<br />

however, whatever you write in dry-erase ink is simultaneously displayed on your computer<br />

screen in the pen color you selected. You can save this electronic version of your writing as<br />

a Notebook file, an image file, a PDF document or an HTML file, as well as print it and send<br />

it via e-mail to others.<br />

We recommend that you purchase a set of high-quality dry-erase markers in black, blue,<br />

red and green and place each pen in the matching colored slot of the Pen Tray.<br />

Setting Up the <strong>SMART</strong> Pen Tray for Non-Projected Use<br />

When you set up your <strong>SMART</strong> Pen Tray, make sure you remove the Projection button label<br />

from the label recess, revealing the Whiteboard Mode button label.<br />

Print<br />

This label indicates that the upper Pen Tray button is the New Page button, a very important<br />

button for non-projected interactive whiteboard use. Pressing this button opens a New Page<br />

in the current Notebook file for receiving fresh notes. The bottom button is the Print button,<br />

which sends your current page of notes to the default printer.<br />

Configuring <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> Software for Non-Projected<br />

Use<br />

If you’re using an interactive whiteboard without a projector, you should ensure that the<br />

Control Panel in the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> tools has been set for non-projected (whiteboard) use.<br />

Otherwise, when you write anywhere outside a board-aware application workspace (such as<br />

Notebook software) with dry-erase ink, you may accidentally activate menu commands or<br />

other program elements with mouse clicks.<br />

It’s important to note that when you initially install <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software, the default setting<br />

is projected mode. Therefore, you must change this setting, as described below.<br />

To set the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> driver for non-projected operation:<br />

1 Click the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> icon and select Control Panel.<br />

2 Click the radio button beside Non-Projected (Whiteboard Mode).<br />

3 Click the OK button.<br />
