v | INTRODUCTION – IMPORTANT INFORMATIO N
CAUTIONS
• Do not operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a
warm location. When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature,
moisture could condense on the lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the
system to reach room temperature before operation to prevent possible
damage to the unit.
• Do not place the unit in hot locations, such as near heating equipment.
Doing so could cause a malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
• Make sure that an electrical socket is near to your SMART product and
remains easily accessible during use.
• Do not add any extra weight or apply pressure to the UF55/UF55w projector
boom, the wall-mounted interactive whiteboard or its pen tray. SMART
designed the brackets to support only the weight of the components during
normal use.
• For operating safety and to prevent damage to your interactive whiteboard,
connect the included USB cable only to a computer that has a USB compliant
interface and that bears the USB logo. In addition, the USB source computer
must be compliant with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and CSA
and/or UL Mark(s) for CAS/UL 60950.
• Do not connect your serial cable directly to the projector’s RS-232 serial
interface. Use the extended control panel’s (ECP’s) RS-232 serial
interface only.
• In a location over 6000' (1829 m) altitude, the air is thin and cooling efficiency
is reduced, so use the projector with the fan mode set to High.
• Do not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings.
• Avoid turning off the projector during the lamp ignition phase since this may
lead to premature lamp failure. Keep the projector lamp on for a minimum
of 15 minutes before turning it off to preserve the lamp life.
• Cycling power to the projector repeatedly can lock or damage your interactive
whiteboard system. After you turn off the system, wait at least 15 minutes
for cooling before starting the system again.
• Before you clean the UF55/UF55w projector, press the power button twice
on the ECP or remote to put the system into Idle mode, and then allow the
bulb to cool for 30 minutes.
• Do not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the
projector base or head. Do not use spray cleaners or solvents near any part
of the projector since they may damage or stain the unit.
