79 | CHAPTER 6 – CABLING A 600I3 OR D600I3 SYSTEM TO A HAWM-UX/UF
Connecting peripheral devices to your SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projectors’ ECP temporarily
To connect a DVD/Blu-ray player, VCR, document camera, digital camera or other
visual or audio-visual peripheral device, you must connect the device’s video and
audio outputs to the ECP. You can have up to three peripheral devices and a host
computer connected at one time.
The SMART UF55 and SMART UF55w projectors’ ECP has three video inputs and
one communications port: an HD-DB15 with associated 3.5 mm audio jack, an S-
Video jack with associated dual-channel audio RCA jacks, a composite video RCA
jack with associated dual-channel audio RCA jacks and one RS-232 connector
designed for use with room control systems. SMART recommends that you use the
video connectors for temporary connections to peripheral devices, or that you
permanently attach and secure the cables to the wall for installation.
To connect a composite
video device
1. Make sure that you place the device near the HAWM-UX/UF on a stable support.
2. Allow enough excess cable length to accommodate the HAWM-UX/UF’s rise and
descent, or make sure that the HAWM-UX/UF isn’t moved.
3. Connect the device’s video cables to the ECP using the appropriate inputs. Input
2 is the VGA connector, input 3 is the S-video 4-pin mini-DIN connector and input
4 is the composite video input connector.
4. For each peripheral device, connect the device’s audio cables to the associated
red and white RCA jacks next to the appropriate video input connector.
5. When you’re finished with the device, remove the cable from the ECP.
Connecting your SMART UF55 or SMART UF55w projector to the SBA or SBA-L projection audio system
The HAWM-UX/UF is designed to accommodate mounting the SBA or SBA-L
projection audio system directly to the interactive whiteboard. That way, when the
speakers rise and descend with the HAWM-UX/UF’s and interactive whiteboard’s
movement, there’s less risk of damage to the audio connection and power cables.
Therefore, SMART recommends that you don’t mount the SBA or SBA-L projection
audio system to the wall.
Before connecting the audio system to the projector, you must install the speaker
brackets, speakers and speaker cable clips according to the SBA-L Projection Audio
System textless installation instructions (smarttech.com/kb/142552).
