Tips for trouble-free performance

The SMART Board interactive whiteboard is durable, but take care to prevent any damage to it and its parts.

  • Replace the pen when the nib wears out.

  • Don’t touch the interactive surface with sharp or pointed objects.

  • Don’t set up and use the interactive whiteboard in an area with excessive levels of dust, humidity or smoke.

  • Don’t use low-odor dry-erase markers. They can be very difficult to erase.

  • Don’t obstruct the cameras’ view of the interactive whiteboard. For example, don’t place magnets, stickers or adhesive tape on the interactive surface or rest any objects, including your hand or the pens, in the recess at the bottom of the interactive surface. This interferes with the corner cameras’ ability to detect your finger or pens on the interactive surface.
