600i Interactive Whiteboard System Features


The SMART Board 600i interactive
whiteboard systems use the Unifi 35 short-
throw, high-offset projector. This projector
supports video, audio and data connections
from a variety of devices, including DVD
players, VCRs, digital cameras and TV
tuners. When the Unifi 35 projects an image
from one of these sources onto the touch-
sensitive interactive whiteboard, you can
draw over the image in digital ink using a
pen tray pen or your finger, and then save
the image to a USB storage device, without
using a computer.

When you use the system with a computer,


you can do everything you can do at a
computer workstation—open files,
conference with others, work on
documents, visit websites, play video clips
and more—simply by touching the screen.
You can also write over any application in digital ink using a pen tray pen or your finger, and
then save these notes to a Notebook™ file for future reference and distribution.

Standard Accessories
SMART provides the following accessories with each 600i interactive whiteboard system. If
you need to purchase replacements, contact your authorized SMART reseller.

Standard SMART USB Cable


Your 600i interactive whiteboard comes with a 16' (5 m)
USB cable. Use this cable to connect the SMART Board 660
or 680 interactive whiteboard to the Unifi projector’s USB
receptacle.

Extended Connection Panel and Cable


The extended connection panel cables provides convenient
access to the audio, video and USB inputs to your 600i
system. The extended connection panel includes VGA-HD,
S-video and composite video inputs, 3.5 mm stereo and
RCA audio jacks, a USB-B receptacle to connect your

99-00737-25 Rev A0 About 600i Interactive Whiteboard Systems 3


SMART Board 600 Series Pens
The pens have a rubberized grip area, colored to match the
four colors of electronic ink: black, green, red and blue.
You can use dry-erase markers instead of the supplied
pens, as long as they are a similar shape, do not scratch or
mark the surface of the interactive whiteboard and are
reflective to infrared light. If the pens you provide don’t reflect infrared light, the pen tray sensor
might not detect the presence of the pen. EXPO® markers make excellent substitutes.
Pens from earlier interactive whiteboards weren’t designed to reflect infrared light, so the
sensors may not detect them reliably. You can wrap light colored tape around the pen to
improve the reflection of infrared light, helping with tool detection.

SMART Board 600 Series Eraser


The eraser resembles a rectangular chalkboard eraser. You
can use a substitute eraser, provided it has a similar shape,
does not scratch or mark the surface of the interactive
whiteboard and reflects infrared light.

Optional Accessories
You can purchase these optional accessories when you order your interactive whiteboard, or
you can purchase them later from your authorized SMART reseller.

Active USB Extension Cables


You can connect up to three 16' (5 m) USB active extension
cables (Part No. USB-XT) to extend the USB connection to
a maximum of 64' (20 m). See page 35 for more information.

Cat 5 to USB Extender


You can use the SMART Cat 5 to USB extender (Part No.

might cause slight wrinkling in the sheet. The wrinkles disappear once the humidity lowers.

Water and Fluid Resistance


SMART Board 600i series interactive whiteboard systems are for indoor use only and do not
meet any salt-spray or water ingress requirements. Do not pour or spray any liquids directly
onto the interactive whiteboard, the Unifi projector or any of its sub-components. These liquids
might get into areas where they could damage sensitive electronic components. Refer to (page
58) for detailed instructions on cleaning your system’s components.

Dust and Scratching


SMART Board 600i series interactive whiteboard systems are for use in office and classroom
environments and are not for industrial use, where heavy dust and pollutants can cause
malfunctions or impaired operation. The design is for pollution degree 1 (P1) as per
EN61558-1, which is defined as “No pollution or only dry non-conductive pollution.”

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)


SMART Board 600i series interactive whiteboard systems meet the requirements of EN61000-
4-2 severity level 4 for direct and indirect ESD. No malfunction or damage up to 15kV (both

Before Installing Your 600i Interactive Whiteboard System
Choose a location for your SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system that’s far from a
bright light source, such as windows or overhead lighting. Bright light sources can cause
distracting shadows on the interactive whiteboard and reduce the contrast of the projected
image.

Recommended Heights for Mounting


SMART includes a mounting template with each of its 600i interactive whiteboard systems.
Using this template ensures that you:
• mount the Unifi projector at a safe height, while maintaining enough space for airflow
above the unit.
• position the projector at the correct height above the interactive whiteboard to make sure
that the projected image aligns with the touch screen.
Dimensions on the template recommend a distance from the floor that is suitable for adults of
average height. Although you should consider the general height of your user community when
you choose a position for your 600i interactive whiteboard, consult your local regulations
before mounting the unit lower.

IMPORTANT
You must follow the instructions in this guide carefully to safely install the 600i
interactive whiteboard system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
product damage and personal injury.

Tools required
• Phillips® No. 1 and No. 2 screwdrivers
• a ruler or tape measure
• a carpenter’s level
• a pencil or other marking device
• an electric drill with a variety of drill bits, including:
– 1/8" (3 mm) drill bit for pilot holes
– 5/16" (8 mm) drill bit for wooden stud drywall mounting
– 7/16" (11 mm) drill bits for metal stud and concrete wall mounting

CAUTION If you need to lean the interactive whiteboard against a wall before you mount
it, make sure it remains in an upright position, resting on the pen tray brackets,
which can sustain the weight of the interactive whiteboard.

Do not rest the interactive whiteboard on its side or on the top of the frame.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Installing 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard Systems 7


Preparing the Installation Template
You must position and install the Unifi projector before you mount and adjust the position of the
interactive whiteboard. SMART provides the installation template to help you mount the
projector and the interactive whiteboard correctly.
Before starting the installation, cut the extended
connection panel part from the included installation
template and reserve it for a later step. If you are
installing the projector close to the ceiling, cut along the
template’s top line.
The first procedure in the following section illustrates
the mounting of the 600i interactive whiteboard system
onto a framed wall surfaced with gypsum or drywall. If
you are mounting your 600i system on a concrete wall,
go to the To mount the SMART Board 600i projector
bracket on a concrete wall procedure page 10.

Installing the 600i Interactive Whiteboard System

WARNING
Two people are required to safely mount the 600i interactive whiteboard system
on a wall.

NOTE: To mount the Unifi projector safely on a framed wall, you must attach the mounting
plate to a stud. If the wall doesn’t have a stud in a suitable location, you can secure a sheet of
1/2 " (13 mm) or thicker plywood to the wall, and then mount the projector on it.

To mount the SMART Board 600i projector bracket on a framed wall

1. Locate a stud near the center of the area where


you want to mount the 600i interactive whiteboard
system using a stud finder.
2. Draw a vertical line on the wall marking the

Adjusting Keystone Alignment Errors
During the manufacturing process, SMART precisely aligns the Unifi 35 projector. When you
install the system on a flat wall using the procedures starting on page 8, you don’t need to
perform keystone adjustment. If you’ve followed the installation procedures carefully and the
projected image isn’t aligned, your projector may have been damaged during shipping.
Contact your SMART service representative.

When you use standard projectors, keystone errors occur when the projected image isn’t
perpendicular to the screen. The image appears wider at the bottom when the distance from
the projector lens to the bottom of the screen is greater than the distance to the top of the
screen. The image appears wider at the top when the distance from the projector lens to the
top of the screen is greater than the distance to the bottom of the screen.

Bottom of Interactive Whiteboard Top of Interactive Whiteboard


is Too Far from the Projector Lens is Too Far from the Projector Lens

Keystone errors can occur when you mount the Unifi™ 35 short-throw, high-offset projector
and the interactive whiteboard used in SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard systems on
an uneven surface, or on a wall that has obstructions such as a whiteboard or aluminum rails.

About Correcting Keystone Errors


When possible, position the interactive whiteboard so that it aligns with the projected image.
This eliminates keystone errors. If your installation prevents you from moving the interactive
whiteboard, you may be able to adjust the Unifi 35 projector boom alignment to correct image
distortion.

NOTE: Do not adjust the projector boom alignment unless necessary.


• If you move the projector to a new location you must return its alignment to factory
settings.
• If your projector requires service, you must adjust the replacement projector.

WARNING
It takes two people to safely lift the interactive whiteboard on or off its wall
mount bracket.

NOTE: Do not attempt the following procedures unless you are familiar with the installation
procedures starting on page 8.

Securing the Pen Tray and Interactive Whiteboard
Because the pen tray that comes with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard is
detachable, you may want to safeguard it—and the interactive whiteboard at the same time—
by anchoring it with a security cable.

IMPORTANT Securing the pen tray can provide theft deterrence for the interactive
whiteboard as well. The screws that secure the interactive whiteboard to the
wall are located directly behind the pen tray. The pen tray must be removed
before you can remove the interactive whiteboard. In effect, when you secure
the pen tray, you’re also securing the interactive whiteboard, if the security
cable is tight.

To lock the pen tray to the interactive whiteboard

Underneath the pen tray, you’ll find a lock slot that accommodates a security cable, such as a
Kensington® lock.

Lock Slot

Loop the security cable behind the pen tray brackets before you screw them to the wall (as
shown in step 1 on page 16) and then thread the lock end of the cable through the loop end of
the cable. Verify that the cable is tight enough to prevent you from removing the pen tray while
the lock is in place. Install the pen tray. Insert the prong-end of the security cable into the lock
slot and then complete the pen tray installation.

To secure the pen tray to the pen tray brackets

Because you can remove the pen tray without tools, you may want to securely attach it to its
brackets. To do this, you can insert two No. 8/M4 screws (not included) into the holes shown in
the illustration below. Note that older pen trays do not have this feature.

Upgrading a 600 Series Interactive Whiteboard to a 600i
System
Read this section carefully before upgrading your 600 series interactive whiteboard to a 600i
system. Use this checklist to determine whether you can upgrade your 600 series interactive
whiteboard to a 600i interactive whiteboard system.

Upgrade Checklist
Item Question Yes No
1 Is your interactive whiteboard a model 660 or 680?
You can’t use the Unifi projector with model 640 or 690
interactive whiteboards.
2 Measured from the floor to the top of the interactive whiteboard’s
frame, is the top currently 81" (206 cm) or higher above the floor?
If the floor to top frame measurement is less than 81" (206 cm),
then you may be unable to mount Unifi projector at a safe
height, or meet local regulations.
3 Measured from the top of the frame and the ceiling, is there 16 3/4"
(42.5 cm) or more space between the top frame of model 660
interactive whiteboard, or 17 1/4" (42 cm) or more space for the
model 680 interactive whiteboard?
If the clearance is too small, the Unifi projector won’t receive
adequate cooling airflow.
4 If your interactive whiteboard is mounted on a framed wall, can you
slide it sideways, up to 10" (25 cm), if required?
Because the Unifi projector mounting plate must be attached to
a stud that can safely support the projector’s weight, you may
not be able to center the projector over the interactive
whiteboard’s current position. You must be able to move the
interactive whiteboard sideways to align it with the projector’s
image.
5 If your interactive whiteboard is mounted on a concrete wall, can
you slide it sideways, up to 3" (7.5 cm), if required?
You must be able to adjust the interactive whiteboard sideways
to align it with the projector’s image.
6 Are you using a USB cable to connect the computer to the
interactive whiteboard?
You must use a USB cable to connect a computer to the 600i
system. You can’t use the serial or wireless Bluetooth®
connection options.

If you checked No for any of the previous questions, you may not be able to upgrade your
existing interactive whiteboard to a 600i system in its current location.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Installing 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard Systems 25


Preparing for the Upgrade

Operating Safety and Precautions

IMPORTANT To ensure safe operation and to avoid damage to the SMART Board 600i
series interactive whiteboard system, connect the USB connector of the Unifi
35 projector only to a computer that has a USB compliant interface and that
bears the USB logo. In addition, the USB source computer must be compliant
with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and CSA and/or UL mark(s) for
CSA/UL 60950.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Connecting the 600i System to a Computer 33


Connecting with a USB Cable
You can connect all 600i interactive whiteboards systems to a computer using the USB
interface on the extended connection panel. SMART provides a 6' (1.8 m) USB cable, or you
can purchase cables locally. The systems have a high-power USB 2.0 full-speed peripheral
interface that runs at speeds of up to 12 Mbps. The units work with USB 2.0- and USB 1.1-
compliant USB interfaces.

To connect to the extended connection panel (ECP)

1. Connect the included 6' (1.8 m) USB cable to the USB


Type B receptacle on the ECP.

2. Plug the other end of the USB cable into a USB


receptacle on your computer.

IMPORTANT Do not use a USB cable longer than 6' 5" (2 m) to connect your computer to
the extended connection panel. If you use a longer cable, its length, when
combined with that of the extended connection panel cable, exceeds USB
specifications, resulting in communication failure.

3. Connect the included 6' (1.8 m) VGA-HD cable to the ECP’s DB15 VGA connector.
4. Plug the other end of the VGA-HD cable into a DB-15 VGA receptacle on your computer.
5. If you use the audio output from your computer, connect the included 6' (1.8 m) 3.5 mm
stereo phone cable to the ECP’s 3.5 mm phone jack.
6. Plug the other end of the audio cable into a 3.5 mm phone jack on your computer.
If you are using a Mac computer (with the OS X operating system), or if you already have
the appropriate USB driver installed on your computer, you can install SMART Board
software.

To install the USB driver (Windows only)

The computer sees the 600i system as a USB Human Interface Device (HID). If an appropriate
driver isn’t installed on the computer, a Found New Hardware wizard helps you locate a driver.
1. Click the Next button to direct the wizard to search for an appropriate driver.
2. Click Next again to make the Windows operating system search the driver database on
the computer’s hard drive for an appropriate driver.
NOTE: If the Windows operating system can’t find a driver, insert the Windows 2000/XP
CD in your CD drive and install a USB HID driver. USB HID is a subclass of USB devices,
and the drivers are not always included in a default installation. Computers must have
these drivers before a USB connection to the 600i system will work correctly.
3. Click the Finish button after the driver search and installation is complete.

NOTE: If you have a Mac computer or a Windows computer with a USB driver installed, you
can now connect the 600i in HID (Mouse) mode. USB drivers are not currently available for
Linux computers, so you must install SMART Board software before you can connect to the
600i.

34 Connecting the 600i System to a Computer 99-00737-25 Rev A0


To install SMART Board software

1. Put the SMART Board software CD, version 9.5 or later, in your CD drive and follow the
on-screen instructions.
NOTE: If SMART Board software is already installed on your computer, you can use this
opportunity to upgrade the software to ensure compatibility. SMART Board software
upgrades are available at www.smarttech.com/support/software/index.asp.You can’t use
SMART Board software versions earlier than 9.5 with the 600i system.
2. If the SMART Board tools do not open automatically, select Start > Programs > SMART
Board Software > SMART Board Tools, or double-click the SMART Board Tools icon
on your desktop.

You can now pick up a pen tray pen and write on the interactive screen in digital ink, and
capture your notes into any Ink Aware application. Refer to the SMART Board software online
Help for a list of Ink Aware applications.

USB Extender Cables and Hubs


The 16' (5 m) USB cable included with the interactive whiteboard is within the limit defined by
the USB 2.0 standard for maximum length. If the included USB cable isn’t long enough, you
can use active USB extender cables, USB extenders or hubs.

When used with a 600i series interactive whiteboard system,


the SMART active USB extension cable shown here (Part No.
USB-XT) extends standard USB cables by 16' (5 m). You can
connect up to three active USB extenders to increase the total
cable length to about 64' (20 m). Note that passive USB
extension cables are not supported. Don’t use cables longer
than 6' (1.8 m) to connect these extenders to the extended
connection panel (ECP).

Alternately, USB extenders that use Cat 5 cables can extend


the range to approximately 325' (100 m), at a much higher
cost. The more economical SMART Cat 5 to USB extender
(Part No. CAT5-XT) shown here can extend the USB
connection up to 120' (36.6 m) using an RJ45 Cat 5 cable.

NOTE: Two 6' (1.8 m) USB cables are included with the Cat 5
extenders, and you must use them to connect the computer
and the interactive whiteboard. Don’t use cables longer than 6'
(1.8 m), and don’t connect these extenders through the
extended connection panel used with 600i systems. Connect
them directly to the Unifi projector base.

You can also use USB hubs with interactive whiteboards. If you also pass streaming audio
through the USB hub, ensure that the computer’s USB drivers are up-to-date, or the interactive
whiteboard’s performance might become choppy, intermittent or otherwise unacceptable.

NOTES
• Some computers use internal active hubs to provide more USB receptacles. A computer’s
operating system may interpret these internal hubs as external devices, which limits the
number of USB extenders that you can use.
• Cables and connectors must meet the specifications of the extenders and hubs.
Impedance mismatches and poor connections can cause signal degradation and
performance problems with the interactive whiteboard.
• USB extenders and hubs must be USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 compliant.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Connecting the 600i System to a Computer 39


Orienting the SMART Board 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard
At the factory, the interactive whiteboard’s controller module receives a default manufacturing
orientation data set. The interactive whiteboard uses this data if you haven’t oriented the
interactive whiteboard with Unifi projector software or with SMART Board software. The term
User Orientation describes a manual orientation performed with SMART Board software or the
Unifi projector interface.

Default Manufacturing Orientation


When the interactive whiteboard uses the default manufacturing orientation data, the touch
point on the screen corresponds fairly well to the projected computer desktop image, provided
the projected image fills the entire interactive screen. The default orientation is a simple 2-point
orientation, and the projected touch point might be offset from the actual contact point. You can
resolve this problem by performing a more accurate orientation.
NOTE: You can restore the default orientation by holding the Reset button on the controller
module for more than three seconds.

Orienting with the Unifi Projector Interface


When you use the 600i interactive whiteboard system without a computer, you can perform a
9-point orientation using the Unifi projector’s on-screen interface. The Unifi projector’s
software saves the orientation data in the flash memory of the interactive whiteboard’s
controller module. If you switch to another video source or attach a computer that uses
SMART Board software, the orientation data for the 600i system remains unchanged.

Orienting with a Computer


4- and 9-Point User Orientation

When you use SMART Board software to perform a quick 4-point or standard 9-point
orientation, the software saves the orientation data in the flash memory of the interactive
whiteboard’s controller module (i.e., the orientation data stays with the 600i system). If you
attach a different computer, the orientation data remains unchanged.

12- and 20-Point User Orientation

You can also perform higher resolution 12- or 20-point user orientations. Unlike the 4- and
9-point orientations, the software saves the 12- and 20-point orientation data on the computer,
and the data stays with the computer and not the 600i system. Resetting the controller module
doesn’t clear the computer’s 12- or 20-point orientation data.
If you attach a different computer (that hasn’t performed a 12- or 20-point orientation), the
interactive whiteboard uses the most precise level of orientation data that’s stored in the
controller’s memory.

NOTES
• When used without a computer, the 600i interactive whiteboard system uses the
2-, 4- or 9-point orientation data that is stored in the controller module’s memory.
• If a user performs a 2-, 4- or 9-point orientation procedure on a computer, any 9-point
orientation data that was saved using the Unify projector’s interface is lost.

40 Connecting the 600i System to a Computer 99-00737-25 Rev A0


To orient the interactive whiteboard

To orient the unit, follow on-screen instructions for


touching specific points on the interactive
whiteboard’s screen.
• You can use the Unifi projector’s interface to
perform a 9-point orientation.
• If you are using a computer with SMART
Board software, you can perform a 4-, 9-, 12-
or 20-point orientation, depending on your
Alignment/Orientation Precision setting. The
next procedure shows how to change the
precision setting.

The picture to the right shows SMART Board software’s 9-point orientation screen. The Unifi
software orientation screen is similar.

To access the orientation screen, press and hold the two large pen tray buttons at the same
time. If your 600i is connected to a computer with SMART Board software, the SMART Board
software orientation screen opens. Otherwise, the Unifi interface’s orientation screen opens. If
you are using a computer, you can also press the Help button on the pen tray and select
Align/Orient the SMART Board.

NOTE: Use a fine-point tool, such as a pen tray pen, instead of your finger for greater precision
when touching the targets.

To set the orientation precision

NOTE: You can perform this procedure only if a computer with SMART Board software is
connected to the 600i system.
1. Press the SMART Board icon.
2. Press Control Panel.
3. Press the SMART Board Settings button.
4. If more than one SMART product is connected to the computer, select the appropriate
interactive whiteboard.
5. Select Orientation/Alignment Settings from the list.
6. Select the desired orientation setting, and press OK.
NOTES

• The changes to the orientation precision takes effect the next time you orient the system.
• Changing the orientation precision has no effect when you perform an orientation
procedure using the Unifi projector’s interface.

Working with Your 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System
This section shows how to use your 600i as a stand-alone interactive whiteboard system, with
a video device such as a VCR or TV tuner or when attached to a computer.

The Startup Menu


When you turn on the 600i, the Unifi
software opens a Startup menu similar to
this example. The number of computer and
video options may change based on the
system’s configuration.

Using a Stand-Alone 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard


System
You can use the ScratchPad feature of Unifi software when the system isn’t connected to a
computer or other video source. When you touch the interactive whiteboard's surface, the
interactive whiteboard detects the contact’s horizontal and vertical (or x,y) coordinates. The
Unifi software interprets these coordinates and moves the pointer to the corresponding point
on the projected image.
• When all the pens and the eraser are in their pen tray recesses, Unifi software interprets
touches as mouse clicks and movements.
• When you remove a pen or the eraser from the pen tray, sensors detect which tool you are
using. The Unifi software changes the pointer into a colored pen or eraser, allowing you to
draw or remove digital ink from the projected image.

Using Unifi ScratchPad


When you select the ScratchPad option from the Startup menu, this toolbar opens across the
bottom of the touch screen:

You can use ScratchPad and the pen tray tools to draw and erase notes on the interactive
whiteboard's screen and capture them as ScratchPad pages. You can then save the pages to
a USB storage device.

To Draw with Digital Ink

When you pick up a pen tray pen, the toolbar’s pen option palette activates.
You can use this palette to select the shade and thickness of the lines you
draw on the interactive whiteboard.

To Erase Notes

When you pick up the pen tray eraser and place it on the screen, a projected circle identifies
the eraser’s location. Simply move the eraser over your notes to remove them from the
ScratchPad page.

50 Using a 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00737-25 Rev A0


To Add ScratchPad Pages

Press the Add Page button on the Unifi toolbar. The new page appears in the page
sorter to the right of the currently selected page.

To Delete ScratchPad Pages

In the page sorter, select the page you’d like to delete, and then press the Delete
Page button. If there is only one page, pressing the button clears the page.
To delete all the pages, press the All Pages button.

To Reduce the Toolbar

Press this button to reduce the ScratchPad toolbar to a floating


toolbar. The floating toolbar has buttons to scroll forward and back
through your ScratchPad pages and a button to add new pages.

To restore the full toolbar, simply press the in the corner of the floating
toolbar.

Saving ScratchPad Pages


Save your ScratchPad pages at any time by pressing this button. You can save the
ScratchPad pages to a USB storage device as PDF, JPEG or SMART Notebook
files. When you press this button, the Save to USB Storage Device dialog opens,
providing three options:
Press the Save all pages as a PDF document button to save all ScratchPad pages
as a single .pdf file, with each page saved as a separate document page.
Press the Save each page as a JPEG image button to save each ScratchPad page
as a seperate .jpg file.
Press the Save all pages as a SMART Notebook file button to save all ScratchPad
pages as a single .xbk file, with each page saved as a separate Notebook page.
NOTE: Saving ScratchPad pages to a USB storage device does not delete the pages.

Exiting the Unifi Software


To exit from ScratchPad or a video input and return to the Startup menu, press Menu and
select Exit. If the page sorter contains ScratchPad pages, a dialog box appears asking you to
save the pages, exit without saving or cancel.

NOTE: Exiting the Unifi software interface deletes all of the ScratchPad pages.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Using a 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System 51


Using a 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System with a
Video Source
You can connect the video and audio outputs of a VCR or DVD player, a document camera or
a TV tuner directly to the Unifi projector’s extended connection panel. When you select the
video input, the projector displays the video content on the screen, and the 40-watt stereo
amplifier and speakers play the audio.

Capturing Video Images as ScratchPad Pages


When you select one of the video inputs from the Startup menu, this toolbar opens at the
bottom-left of the touch screen:

You can use the pen tray pens to draw in digital ink over the projected images and then
capture the images with your notes as ScratchPad pages.

To Clear a Page

Press the Clear button to remove all the notes from the ScratchPad page.

To Freeze the Image

Press the Freeze button to see a still image of a video. Note that the Freeze button does not
pause the video source’s play back. Press the Resume button to restore normal video.

To Capture an Image

Press the Capture button to create a new ScratchPad page that contains a snapshot of the
displayed video image, together with your notes. You do not have to freeze the video before
capturing.

52 Using a 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System 99-00737-25 Rev A0


Using a 600i Series Interactive Whiteboard System with a
Computer
When you select a computer input for the 600i system, you can display the video and play the
audio (if available) from an attached computer. You can also use the interactive whiteboard to
control the computer. The computer’s configuration determines how you use the 600i system.

If you connect a computer that doesn’t have SMART Board software installed, you can still use
Unifi software and the pen tray tools to draw and erase notes over the projected images. You
can then capture the images with your notes as ScratchPad pages. (See page 50 for
information about using ScratchPad.) You can also use your finger as a mouse to control
applications on your computer.

Using SMART Board Software


If SMART Board software is installed on the connected computer, you can use the full
capabilities of the software, including SMART Board tools and Notebook software.

When you touch the interactive whiteboard's writing surface, the interactive whiteboard detects
the contact’s vertical and horizontal (or x,y) coordinates. The computer interprets the
coordinates and moves the pointer to the corresponding point on the computer’s screen.
• When all the pens and the eraser are in their pen tray recesses, SMART Board software
interprets touches as mouse clicks and movements.
• When you remove a pen or the eraser from the pen tray, sensors detect which tool you are
using. SMART Board software then interacts with the computer's mouse driver to change
the pointer into a colored pen or eraser, allowing you to create or remove colored digital ink
on the computer’s display.

Projected Mode

When you use the SMART Board 600i


interactive whiteboard system with a computer or
laptop with SMART Board software running in
Projected mode, the components work together
as follows:
• The computer runs an application, and then
sends the image to the Unifi projector, which
casts the image onto the interactive
whiteboard.
• The interactive whiteboard acts as the
computer’s monitor and its input devices
(mouse and keyboard), allowing you to
control the application simply by touching
the screen.
• You can use a pen tray pen to write over any
open application, and then save the notes in
a SMART Notebook file or directly into any
Ink Aware application.

Non-Projected Mode

SMART Board software’s Non-Projected mode (also known as Whiteboard mode), doesn’t
offer control of the interactive whiteboard. Instead, you can use Notebook software to capture,
save or print anything you write on the interactive whiteboard.

Refer to the SMART Board software online Help for more information. All the notes and
images you save using SMART Board software are stored on the computer’s disk drives.

– To reset the lamp usage timer (page 63)

Tips for Trouble-Free Performance


• When using the 600i with a computer, ensure that it’s connected to an interface that’s
recognized by the operating system and that’s not being used by another application.
• If you want to use your finger to touch the interactive screen, make sure all the pens and
the eraser are placed securely in the pen tray. If you lose a pen, place another object in its
pen tray slot. Otherwise, the interactive whiteboard senses the tool missing from the pen
tray and the software assumes that the missing tool is the one you’re currently using on
the interactive surface.

WARNING Safety Tips for Teachers


• Tell students not to look directly at the light beam from the projector.
Instead, encourage them to keep their back to the projector when working
at the interactive whiteboard. Before they turn to face the class, they should
step sideways, out of the projector’s beam.
• Make sure you don’t look directly into the light beam from the projector.
Keep your back to the class when you write over a projected image. Step to
the side of the interactive whiteboard before you turn and face the class.
• Tell your students not to touch the head of the projector, as it can become
extremely hot during normal operation.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Maintaining 600i Interactive Whiteboard Systems 57


Preventing Damage to the Interactive Whiteboard
Although the SMART Board interactive whiteboard surface is very durable, take these
precautions to prevent damage to the interactive screen and to other components.
• Don’t use sharp or pointed objects, such as ballpoint pens or pointers, as writing tools.
• Never use abrasive erasers or harsh chemicals when cleaning.
• Never leave adhesive tape on the writing surface for extended periods. Lifting the tape
may remove the coating that provides the interactive whiteboard’s dry-erase capability.
• Avoid setting up and using your interactive whiteboard in an area with excessive levels of
dust, humidity or smoke.

Keeping the Writing Surface Clean

IMPORTANT • Before you clean your interactive whiteboard, shut down the Unifi projector.
Otherwise, you may inadvertently activate applications or scramble an
attached computer’s desktop icons when you clean the screen.
• To view dirt or streaks more easily, put the Unifi projector on Standby mode
(lamp off).

With proper care, your SMART Board interactive whiteboard will provide years of trouble-free
service. Follow these tips to keep the screen surface clean:
• Do not use low-odor dry-erase markers such as EXPO2®, because they can be very
difficult to remove. Use standard dry-erase (high-odor) markers that include a warning to
use them only in well-ventilated areas.
• Erase dry-erase ink as soon as possible after use. The longer dry-erase ink is on the
surface, the more difficult it is to remove.
• Remove excess dry-erase dust with a damp cloth before using a cleaner.
• If erasing doesn't completely remove dry-erase ink, clean the writing surface with a
household glass cleaner (such as Windex®) daily, weekly or as required.
• Use dry-erase marker cleaner, such as EXPO Cleaner, if ink remains after erasing.
• Don’t allow excess glass cleaner to flow into the crack between the lower frame and the
writing surface, or into the pen tray recesses.
• Use isopropyl alcohol for stubborn stains and ghosting.

Removing Permanent Marker Ink Stains


To remove marks made with a permanent marker, you can use a cleaner such as the Sanford
EXPO Dry Erase Board Doctor. Just write directly over the permanent ink stain with the Board
Doctor pen, allow the solution to dry completely, and then wipe clean.

You can also use a high-odor dry-erase marker to remove marks from a permanent marker
because dry-erase ink contains solvents that can remove permanent ink. Cover the permanent
ink with the dry-erase ink and wipe with a soft cloth while the ink is still wet. If any trace of the
ink remains, spray a cloth with a glass or whiteboard cleaner and wipe the area clean.

TIP
When removing permanent marker ink, don’t use low-odor or non-scented dry-
erase markers. They don’t contain the appropriate solvents.

58 Maintaining 600i Interactive Whiteboard Systems 99-00737-25 Rev A0


The Pen Tray
In addition to providing a convenient place to store the pens and the eraser, the pen tray has
several controls, sensors and indicators.

Pen Tray Buttons


In the center of the pen tray, there are
three buttons. Simultaneously press
and hold the two larger buttons to
start the orientation process. When
the 600i is connected to a computer
operating in Projected mode, the two
large rectangular buttons default to
Keyboard (the left button) and Right-
Click (the right button) functions. In Help
Non-Projected mode, the buttons are button
assigned Print Page and New Page
functions respectively. In either mode, Keyboard Right-Click
button button
you can use SMART Board software
to customize the buttons to provide
several other functions, such as printing, changing pages, launching applications and
capturing the screen. The third button (the small round one) launches the online Help, where
you’ll also find an alignment icon for orienting the interactive whiteboard.

NOTE: The Help button doesn’t work when using the 600i without a computer, and the right
and left pen tray buttons only open the orientation display (page 40).

Pen Tray LEDs and Sensors


When you turn on or reset the 600i or the interactive whiteboard, the indicator lights on the pen
tray cycle twice. When the system is working correctly, the lights come on individually to
indicate the last tool removed from the pen tray. The pen tray detects the removal of the pens
and the eraser using reflective infrared sensors similar to the ones that detect the presence of
paper in photocopiers.

NOTE: Because the pen tray uses infrared sensors, the pen tray tools must reflect infrared
light. Old-style black SMART Pen Tray pens (as used with the 500 Series interactive
whiteboards) may not reflect infrared light reliably.

Servicing the Pen Tray


Cleaning the Pen Tray’s Sensors
If the infrared sensors in the bottom of
the pen tray’s recesses are
obstructed, the sensors can’t reliably
detect when the pen or the eraser is
removed or replaced. The recess LED Infrared Sensors
may remain lit or won’t light, and the
lifted tool won’t work.
To clean a sensor, moisten a cotton swab with a household glass cleaner, such as Windex,
and carefully clean the infrared transmitter and receiver.

NOTE: There are no user serviceable parts inside the pen tray. Only qualified personnel
should disassemble the pen tray. If dust or a small object prevents you from pressing a button,
or causes a button to stick, remove the object carefully.

99-00737-25 Rev A0 Maintaining 600i Interactive Whiteboard Systems 59


To remove the pen tray

NOTE: Electrostatic discharge protection is not required for this operation.


1. Turn off the interactive whiteboard by disconnecting the USB cable connected to the Unifi
projector or turn off the 600i interactive whiteboard system and wait until the indicator ring
on the control module is solid white and the fans have stopped running.
2. Remove the pens and the eraser from the pen tray.
3. Reach underneath the pen tray, and disconnect the modular I²C cables from connectors 1,
2 and 3. See page 16 for connector locations.
4. If you have secured the pen tray to its brackets using two screws (page 24), remove these
screws.
5. If you have secured the pen tray using a Kensington lock or similar device, unlock and
remove the lock.
6. Reach underneath the pen tray and pull down on the two large plastic clips on the bottom
of the pen tray. The ends of these clips project downwards slightly, so they’re easy to find.
The Pen Tray as Seen from Below

Maintaining the Unifi Projector
Keeping the Unifi Projector Clean

WARNING
Before you clean the Unifi projector, turn it off and wait for it to cool completely
before unplugging it. Failure to do so can cause the lamp to fail prematurely or
burst.

• Use a dry or damp cleaning cloth, for general cleaning of the exterior of the Unifi projector.
• Do not use spray cleaners or solvents on any part of the Unifi projector base or head.
• Do not allow liquids of any kind to flow into either the Unifi projector base or head.

Adjusting the Projected Image


You can fix many image problems by adjusting the projector’s focus or boom length. Optimally,
you should have a margin of approximately 3/8" (1.0 cm) on all sides of the screen. See page
14 for image adjustment procedures.
NOTE: Do not adjust the factory preset boom alignment screws or the projector alignment
screws inside the projector head. If you can’t achieve a satisfactory alignment, contact your
support representative (page 73).
When using an external video input source, you should ensure that the source’s resolution
settings match those of the Unifi projector. The native resolution of the Unifi projector is XGA
(1024 × 768). If the resolutions don’t match, the image output may not completely fill the
interactive screen, may shimmer or be distorted. You can change a computer’s resolution in
the Windows Control Panel or in the Mac System Preferences. For more information about
setting the computer resolution, see the operating system’s Help.

Resetting the 600i Interactive Whiteboard System


If your 600i system behaves erratically (possibly because of a static discharge or power a
interruption) you may be able to restore normal operation simply by resetting the system.

Resetting the 600i System


You can reset the 600i interactive whiteboard system completely by removing and replacing
the power plug to the Unifi projector or by turning the Master Power switch (inside the projector
base) off and on. This turns the power off and back on, resetting all components of the SMART
Board 600i interactive whiteboard system.

WARNING
Wait for the Unifi projector to cool down completely before turning off the
power. Failure to do so can cause the lamp to fail prematurely or burst.

Shutting down the Unifi Projector Immediately


You can press the Power button on the extended
connection panel (ECP) to immediately put the projector
into a two-minute cool down cycle and then into Standby
mode. After the cool down period, you can press the ECP ECP

NOTES
• To reset the projector completely, you must unplug the system or turn the Master Power
switch (inside the projector base) off. Turning the projector off with any external power
button, including the remote control, doesn’t reset the projector’s circuitry or power
supplies.
• Turning the Unifi projector off also removes power from the interactive whiteboard.
• Save your ScratchPad before you press either Power button or remove power from the
system. All captured images and notes are cleared immediately when you turn the power
off.

Resetting the Interactive Whiteboard


When the 600i system is turned off and on, the interactive whiteboard power is also turned off
and on, resetting it completely.

You can also use the Reset button on the edge of

can’t accidentally trigger the recessed Reset
button. Use the tip of a pen tray pen or other
pointed object (such as a ball-point pen) to press
the button.

Press the Reset button if the controller module stops responding or is in the wrong mode. For
example, the interactive whiteboard might be unresponsive because of an electrostatic
discharge, a power interruption or some other event. After you press the Reset button, the
controller module resets and operates normally.

NOTE: If you press and hold the Reset button for longer than three seconds, any saved 4- or
9-point orientation data is cleared from the controller module’s memory, and the alignment
defaults to factory settings. However, if you are using a computer with SMART Board software
and have performed a 12- or 20-point orientation, that data is retained after a reset because it
is stored on the computer (page 40).

General 600i System Troubleshooting
The Pen Tray or Control Module Isn’t Working Correctly
The interactive whiteboard’s SC9 firmware must be version 4.1.2.0 or later to operate correctly
with the Unifi projector. Refer to the procedures for upgrading the firmware on page 30.

If the Unifi projector appears to operate normally, but the pen tray indicators and tools are not
working correctly, or the control module isn’t working correctly, verify that the modular I²C cable
from the SC9 controller module is securely plugged into connector 1 on the bottom of the pen
tray. Also verify that the control module cable is securely plugged into connectors 2 and 3. See
page 16 for detailed instructions.

The 600i System Indicators Appear Normal, But You Have Problems
If the indicators on the projector, control module and interactive whiteboard indicate that the
system is operating normally, but you are still experiencing problems, use this table to help
troubleshoot the issue.

Isolating the Interactive Whiteboard from the Unifi Projector
If you suspect that there is a problem with your interactive whiteboard, isolate it from the Unifi
projector so that you can test it separately.

To isolate the interactive whiteboard from the Unifi projector

1. Disconnect the USB cable from the interactive


whiteboard’s captive USB connector behind the
lower-right corner of the interactive whiteboard.
2. Connect a USB cable from the interactive
whiteboard to an unused USB receptacle on a
computer that has SMART Board software
installed.
3. Turn on the computer.
You can now troubleshoot the interactive whiteboard
using the Ready Light, in conjunction with other
observable symptoms and behaviors. Before you start
troubleshooting, (page 48) locate the Ready Light, and
familiarize yourself with its states during normal operation. If you suspect that your interactive
whiteboard is not operating correctly, refer to the SMART Board 600 Series Interactive
Whiteboard Installation and User’s Guide, available from http://www.smarttech.com/support, or
contact your support representative.
