Changing presence detection settings

Your SMART Board interactive display includes one or two presence detection sensors. When the sensors detect motion in the room, the display turns on. When the sensors no longer detect people in the room, the display returns to Standby mode.

You can enable the presence detection sensors and change their settings in SMART Settings.
