6 | CHAPTER 2 – USING YOUR SMART TABLE
Turning Off Your SMART Table
If the power cable is disconnected or a power bar is turned off without turning the
SMART Table off, the projector turns off immediately and an audible warning sounds
signifying that the SMART Table computer is running on the uniterruptible power
supply’s (UPS) battery power. After 30 seconds, the UPS signals the computer to shut
down to protect the computer’s operating system.
If you reconnect the power cable within 30 seconds, after several minutes the SMART
Table returns to normal operation, during which time the projector is performing
startup tests before its lamp starts up.
IMPORTANT
Avoid touching the table surface until the projector starts up and an image
appears. Because the table is touch-sensitive even though you cannot see an
image, you may disrupt or open activities unintentionally.
NOTE
You can’t use the Reset switch to turn off the SMART Table. If you press the
Reset switch for more than 30 seconds, the computer resets but the projector
remains on. The following procedure shows the correct way to turn off your
SMART Table.
To turn off your
SMART Table
1. Display the SMART Table Activities menu (see page 7), and then press .
The button moves to another corner.
2. Repeat step 1 for each student.
A message appears, informing you that the shutdown process will begin in 30
seconds.
TIP
A chime sound plays when the message first appears. This is useful when
you’re away from the SMART Table and the students accidently press .
Press Cancel if you pressed by mistake.
3. Wait until the blue light around the Reset switch and the fans turn off before
disconnecting the power cable.
CAUTION
Do not disconnect the power cable until after the blue light around the Reset
switch and the fans turn off. Disconnecting the power cable at any other time can
shorten the life of the projector lamp.
