SMART Board User's Guide - Psychology

Or, perhaps you’re presenting complicated information that would benefit from a larger
display area. In this case, you might want to split the window across a couple of boards, as
shown on the two SMART Board for Plasma Display interactive whiteboards below.
You could even have separate windows open on some of the boards and windows split over
others.
To display windows from one computer desktop on multiple boards, you’ll need either a
separate video card for each board or a single card that splits one video signal into multiple
signals.
Option 2: Displaying Identical Computer Desktops on
Multiple Interactive Whiteboards
It’s particularly useful to display the same desktop on multiple boards when you’re delivering
a presentation in a large lecture hall or meeting room. By using multiple boards, you can
display the same information at different locations in the room.
To set up multiple boards that display identical computer desktops, you’ll need to either
connect the projectors to each other in a daisy-chain pattern or install a video-distribution
amplifier between the projectors and the computer.
