21 | CHAPTER 3 – CONNECTING YOUR INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD TO YOUR
COMPUTER
To connect
using a USB cable
1. Connect one end of the included USB cable
to the captive connector suspended from your
interactive whiteboard’s lower-right corner.
NOTE
You must apply approximately 10 oz.
(300 g) of downward pressure to unplug a
USB cable from the captive USB
receptacle. Because an entire 16' (5 m)
USB cable weighs approximately 7 oz.
(200 g), you don’t need to tape or otherwise
secure the USB cable to the captive
connector. The design ensures that
if someone trips on the cable it will disconnect rather than cause injury or
damage to the controller module.
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB receptacle on your computer.
3. Press the power button on your computer to start your interactive whiteboard.
4. Log on to your computer if required. If your computer doesn’t require you to log
on, allow your computer to reach its default start screen.
If you’re using a computer running Mac OS X operating system software, or if you
already have the appropriate USB driver installed on your Windows® computer,
the Ready light on the lower-right frame immediately turns red, and then flashes
green. If this happens, see Installing SMART Product Drivers on page 22.
If the appropriate driver isn’t installed on your Windows computer, a Found New
Hardware wizard helps you locate the driver for the newly connected USB Human
Interface Device (HID), that is, your interactive whiteboard. Refer to the following
procedure to install the USB driver.
