Getting started
Once your SMART Board X800 series interactive whiteboard is installed, the camera
system is calibrated and the interactive surface has been oriented, you can begin
using the interactive whiteboard to write, erase and move objects, open applications,
use Ink Aware programs and save your notes on your computer.
Turning the interactive whiteboard on and off
To turn on your interactive whiteboard, ensure that you’ve connected the USB cable
between the pen tray and your computer, and that the power cable is connected to a
wall outlet, and then turn on your computer.
