The display's components

The display comes in the following screen sizes:

  • 65"

  • 75"

  • 86"

Caution 

Prolonged focus on a fixed object, such as a display screen, can contribute to eye strain and headaches. To protect eye health, follow the 20-20-20 rule: after 20 minutes of screen time, spend 20 seconds looking at something 20 feet (6 meters) away. Relaxing the eyes, looking around frequently, and blinking will also prevent eye strain and fatigue.

You can do everything on the display that you can do at your computer—open and close applications, meet with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit websites, play and manipulate videos, and so on—by touching the display’s touch surface.

You can also use a variety of gestures within applications, including panning, scaling, rotating, and zooming in and out.

The display’s Advanced infrared technology supports up to 50 touch points (depending on the connected device’s operating system).

The display comes with two pens, which you can use to write or draw on the screen.

Use your fist or palm to erase digital ink on the screen.

With Object Awareness, the display responds automatically to the tool or object you’re using, whether it’s a pen, finger, or palm. The display’s simultaneous tool differentiation technologies allow two people to write independently and simultaneously.

The display includes an infrared sensor that works with the infrared remote control and an ambient light sensor that can detect the brightness of the room and adjust the screen’s brightness accordingly.

The power status light indicates the display’s status:

  • When the power status light is amber, the display is in Standby mode.

  • When the power status light is green, the display is in normal operating mode.

You can use the remote control to turn the display on and off, adjust display settings, and so on.
