54 | MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Pen strokes or parts 
of letters are missing 
when you write 
quickly on your 
interactive 
whiteboard.
NOTE
This issue doesn’t 
occur when you 
use handwriting.
Your interactive 
whiteboard’s frame rate 
might be set too low.
Increase your interactive 
whiteboard’s frame rate.
To determine whether your 
interactive whiteboard’s frame rate 
is set too low, write the same word 
twice: once slowly, and once 
quickly. If your strokes are 
complete in the slow version but 
not in the quick version, the frame 
rate is set too low.
To increase your interactive 
whiteboard’s frame rate:
1. In the Windows notification 
area, select the SMART Board 
icon  , and then select 
Control Panel.
The SMART Notebook control 
panel opens.
2. Select About Software and 
Product Support > Tools  > 
Diagnostics.
The SMART Board 
Diagnostics window opens.
3. Select View > V200 Bar, 
and then select Frame Rate.
The Frame Rate window 
opens.
4. Move the slider to 60, and then 
select OK.
The Frame Rate window and 
the V200 bar close 
automatically.
5. Close the SMART Board 
Diagnostics window, and then 
close the SMART Notebook 
control panel.
