23 | CHAPTER 2 – INSTALLING THE SMART PODIUM ID422w
Orienting the Screen
To ensure that the pointer appears directly beneath the tethered pen when you touch
the interactive screen, the computer needs to know the exact location of the image on
the screen. You can ensure the accuracy of the pointer by orientating the screen,
a procedure in which you use the tethered pen to touch a grid of red targets.
NOTE
If the image on the screen is distorted, match the resolution (page 17) and adjust
the screen (page 18) before you orient the screen.
To orient the screen 1. For Windows computers: Press the SMART Board icon in the notification
area and then press Orientate.
OR
For Mac computers: Press and hold the SMART Board Tools icon in the Dock
and then press Open Orientate.
NOTES
– You can also open the orientation screen by pressing and holding the
Keyboard and Right-Click buttons on the interactive pen display for
several seconds.
– If the interactive pen display is your secondary monitor, you may need to
press the SPACE BAR to move the orientation screen to your interactive
pen display.
Targets appear on the screen.
2. Press the centre of each target in the order indicated on the screen.
