Installing SMART Product Drivers

You must install SMART Product Drivers 10.7 SP 1, or a later version, on your

computer for your computer to respond to touch on the interactive whiteboard’s

surface. SMART Product Drivers includes the tools that you need to control computer

applications, and to write over them in digital ink.

You can install SMART Product Drivers on any computer that meets certain minimum

operating specifications using the software installation CD included with your SMART

product. For your interactive whiteboard’s system requirements, see the SMART

Board 480 interactive whiteboard specifications (

smarttech.com/kb/154638

).

IMPORTANT

Disconnect the SMART Board 480 interactive whiteboard from your computer

while you install SMART Product Drivers.

There are no status lights on your SMART Board 480 interactive whiteboard.

SMART Product Drivers must be installed to view the interactive whiteboard’s

status.

Orienting your interactive whiteboard

After you install SMART Product Drivers on your computer, orient your SMART Board

480 interactive whiteboard. Orienting your interactive whiteboard ensures the greatest

possible level of writing and touch accuracy. Orient your interactive whiteboard any

time your projector or interactive whiteboard has moved since you last used it, or

whenever the mouse pointer isn’t properly aligned with the pen or your finger when

you touch the interactive surface.
