Manage settings on iQ 4 devices

You can use SMART Remote Management to manage settings for SMART Board interactive displays. You can also lock access to settings from SMART Board interactive displays with iQ so that users do not inadvertently change them.

To manage a device’s settings remotely using SMART Remote Management, you need to first create settings in SMART Remote Management. You can then apply the settings to an individual device, multiple devices, all devices that match a saved filter’s criteria, or a group. Alternatively, you can:

• Use a trigger to apply settings at a scheduled time or when a specific event takes place.

• Include the application of settings in workflows.

To create settings

1. Click ConfigurationsDevice Settings.

   The Device Settings window appears.

2. Click Add New.

3. Type a name and description in the Name and Description boxes.

4. Enter the appropriate information in the remaining tabs:

To make devices forget an existing Wi-Fi network, enable Forget wifi and type the existing network’s SSID in the Service Set Identifier (SSID) box. Note  SMART doesn’t recommend connecting SMART Board interactive displays with iQ to hidden networks using SMART Remote Management settings. If you do, you might need to apply settings twice to connect the display to the network successfully, particularly if the display is connected to the internet through Ethernet (rather than Wi-Fi).
