31 | CHAPTER 4 – INTEGRATING OTHER DEVICES WITH YOUR INTERACTIVE
WHITEBOARD SYSTEM
Connecting Your Computer to the Wire Management Bundle
Your SMART Board 685ix interactive whiteboard system includes a wire management
bundle specifically designed for connecting secondary computers such as a laptop.
NOTES
Place your computer on a flat surface near the interactive whiteboard system.
Measure the distance between your projector and the computer you want to
connect. Make sure each cable is long enough, has plenty of slack and can
be placed safely in your room without presenting a tripping hazard.
If you need to place your guest or computer further away from the interactive
whiteboard system, consider purchasing the extension accessories listed on
page 6.
To connect your computer
to the wire management
bundle
1. Connect your secondary computer to the wire management bundle’s HD-DB15
(VGA) input connector, 3.5 mm audio connector and USB A plug.
2. Switch the projector’s input source to VGA2 by pressing the Input button on the
ECP or remote control.
IMPORTANT
If you are connecting a laptop, it can experience a partial, scrolling or
incorrectly displayed image. If this occurs, you need to enter your laptop’s
display recognition mode. Refer to your laptop’s instructions for more
information, or contact your laptop manufacturer’s technical support
department.
