16 | CHAPTER 2 – CABLING AN 885ix SYSTEM TO A HAWM-UX/UF
Placing cables for other components
Cables for peripheral devices connected to the projector but not mounted on the
HAWM-UX/UF are at the greatest risk of damage, because they shift as the
HAWM-UX/UF rises and descends. These peripheral devices and cables include the
following:
• your computer or SMART Hub™ VE220 or SE240 collaboration platform
NOTE
Both the VE220 and SE240 models include 72" (183 cm) output cables to
connect to your projector. You might need cable extensions (not included).
• a room control device (connects to the ECP with a 4-pin accessory cable)
• a network cable
• the projector’s power cable
NOTES
• For temporary connections, connect peripheral devices such as a
DVD/Blu-ray player, to the SMART Board 800ix interactive whiteboard
system’s ECP.
• Mount the peripheral device to a permanent location and check cabling to
ensure there’s enough slack and that there are no obstructions in the cable
path. Cable friction, rubbing and strain can occur if you don’t take the proper
precautions.
