<strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> Software<br />

<strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> Software Service<br />

The <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software service is the driver component of <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software. It<br />

runs in the background, translating <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> interactive whiteboard contact into mouse<br />

behavior.<br />

As soon as you install <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software on a computer connected to a <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong><br />

interactive whiteboard, the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software service goes into action to enable<br />

immediate touch control of your projected computer application. You can activate programs,<br />

open and scroll through files, even surf the Internet − all without doing anything more than<br />

installing <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software on your connected and projected computer. At this point,<br />

you can also use the Pen Tray buttons either to produce a right-mouse click (Windows<br />

operating system only) or to activate the <strong>SMART</strong> Keyboard.<br />

After initial software installation, each time you start up your computer, the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong><br />

interactive whiteboard automatically becomes touch sensitive.<br />

<strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> Tools<br />

The remaining program components of <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> software – the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> tools –<br />

provide all the functionality of the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> interactive whiteboard beyond basic touch<br />

control and Pen Tray button use. Specifically, the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> tools provide you with<br />

annotation and tool-configuration capabilities. You can access the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> tools by<br />

pressing on the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> icon that resides in your system tray.<br />

NOTE: The <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> tools must be running to use the Pen Tray styluses and eraser. In<br />

other words, if you want to write on your board with a Pen Tray stylus, make sure the <strong>SMART</strong><br />

<strong>Board</strong> icon appears in the system tray (Windows operating system), in the menu bar or in the<br />

Dock (Macintosh computers).<br />

In Mac OS 8.5 through 9.x operating systems, these tools are available as a drop-down<br />

menu of commands, accessed by pressing once on the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong> icon that appears in<br />

the menu bar.<br />

Tip<br />

Use the on-screen<br />

keyboard to log on –<br />

before the <strong>SMART</strong> <strong>Board</strong><br />

tools are even active.<br />

When the log-on screen<br />

appears, press the<br />

Keyboard button on the<br />

Pen Tray. The on-screen<br />

keyboard will appear and<br />

you can type your user<br />

name and password<br />

without moving to an<br />

actual keyboard.<br />
