Operation
The Interactive Function
The ACTIVboard provides a projection screen for your LCD projector to display your computer’s video output while
replacing your mouse or trackball with a humanised writing tool in the shape of a pen.
Your ACTIVboard electronic pen is able to control your computer, your application software and your operating
system by touching, clicking and drawing directly on the screen during your presentation or meeting.
Preparation
Set up your LCD projection equipment and connect to your Computer according to
the instructions supplied with those components.
• Framing the Screen Image
The ACTIVboard has 4 angle icons at each corner, these effectively indicate the extent of the active
surface area. The ACTIVboard presentation pen will only work inside these boundaries. With your
projector on and projecting the screen image, position the image and adjust the size, just as you would
for a normal projection screen, but so that image falls within the icons.
• Additional LCD Panel Adjustment
Most LCD projectors have a software or hardware framing control that may need to be adjusted so the
screen image is not clipped at the top, bottom or edges. This control may need to be adjusted to correct
any frame clipping, please do so prior to calibrating the ACTIVboard. Consult your LCD Projector manual
if you are not familiar with this control feature.
