FCC warning This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Important information Before you install and use your SMART Board® 800i6 interactive whiteboard system, read and understand the safety warnings and precautions in this user’s guide and the included warnings document. These safety warnings and precautions describe the safe and correct operation of your interactive whiteboard system and its accessories, helping you to prevent injuries and equipment damage. Ensure that your interactive whiteboard system is always being used correctly.
IMPORT ANT INF ORMAT ION l Two people are required to mount your SMART product because it may be too heavy for one person to safely maneuver. When you lift your interactive whiteboard, you and your assistant should stand on either side of the screen, supporting its weight at the bottom while balancing the top with your other hands. l When mounting the projector boom on a framed or hollow wall, attach the mounting bracket to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight.
IMPORT ANT INF ORMAT ION l You must connect the USB cable that came with your SMART Board interactive whiteboard 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. This is for operating safety and to avoid damage to the SMART Board interactive whiteboard.
IMPORT ANT INF ORMAT ION C A U TION l Do not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings. l If dust or small items prevent pen tray buttons from being pressed or cause constant button contact, remove the obstructions carefully. IMPOR TA N T l Keep your remote control in a safe place because there is no other way to access menu options. l Do not disconnect cables from the ECP to connect peripheral devices because you could disconnect controls for your interactive whiteboard.
IMPORT ANT INF ORMAT ION Environmental requirement Dust Parameter l Electrostatic discharge (ESD) l l l Cables Conducted and radiated emissions v l l smarttech.com/kb/170401 Intended for use in office and classroom environments. Not for industrial use where heavy dust and pollutants can cause malfunctions or impaired operation. Periodic cleaning is required in areas with heavier dust.

CHAPTER 3 Using your interactive whiteboard system Using the remote control buttons The projector remote control enables you to access on-screen menus and change projector settings. Use the Power button on the remote control or ECP to put the projector into Standby mode or to turn it on. You can also use the Input button on the remote control or ECP to switch sources on the projector.
CHAPTER 3 Using your interactive whiteboard system N OTE The Mute, Volume Up and Volume Down buttons work only if there is an audio source connected to the projector for the currently selected video input source. Adjusting projector settings The remote control’s Menu button enables you to access the on-screen display to adjust the projector settings. IMPOR TA N T Keep your remote control in a safe place because there is no other way to access menu options.
CHAPTER 3 Using your interactive whiteboard system Setting Use Notes V-Position Moves the vertical position of the source video up or down from -5 to 5 (relative to the projected image). Don’t adjust this setting unless you’re advised to by SMART Support. Apply this setting only after you make all boom adjustments. This setting applies to VGA inputs only and is useful in situations where the source video is cut off.
CHAPTER 3 Using your interactive whiteboard system Setting Use Notes Projector Functions menu Auto Signal Detect Enables or disables signal searching of input connectors. The default is off. Select On to have the projector continuously switch inputs until it finds an active video source. Select Off to maintain signal detection in one input. Lamp Reminder Turns the lamp replacement reminder on or off. This reminder appears 100 hours before the recommended lamp replacement.
CHAPTER 3 Using your interactive whiteboard system Setting Use Notes Projector ID Displays the projector’s unique ID number (from 0 to 99) within your organization’s network.
