The Basics
Congratulations on your purchase of the IW2 Wireless Interactive
Whiteboard System. After a few simple steps, your system will be
calibrated and ready to use.
Your package should contain the following:
The IPEVO Wireless Interactive Whiteboard System, or IW2, turns your
large projector screen into an interactive touchscreen, giving you
the ability to easily draw and annotate for education and business.
Plus, because IW2 is compatible with many different kinds of soft-
ware, you’ll also be able to control your computer (and what’s on the
screen) at a distance. And this is all possible no matter what make and
model of projector you have.

Two Ways to Use IW2
Use the Interactive Pen as a Computer Cursor
The Interactive Pen can behave like a mouse, transforming any surface
into a touchscreen. Use the Pen to intuitively perform the actions you’d
normally use your mouse to perform.
Note: The Interactive Pen can perform normal mouse actions including click, double click,
and drag. However, some actions are not executable with the Pen, such as hovering.
Annotate Your Text and Images
Using IPEVO Annotator, you can draw and write directly on your interac-
tive whiteboard. You can even draw on top of your document camera’s
live video feed. Engage your audience and clarify your material.

IW2 is made up of two devices: the Sensor Cam and the Interactive Pen
with Wireless Receiver. The Sensor Cam detects the physical location
of the Pen and sends this information wirelessly via the Wireless
Receiver to your computer, which then translates the Pen’s motion into
cursor motion. Wherever you move the Pen, the computer will move
its cursor in real time. You can also perform mouse clicks and drags
with the Pen.
In order for the Sensor Cam to send information wirelessly to the
computer, it needs to be paired with the computer via the Wireless
Receiver attached at the bottom of the Interactive Pen. By default, no
pairing action is required – the Sensor Cam and Wireless Receiver you
received are already paired. Just plug the Wireless Receiver into your
computer's USB port to start using IW2. However, if you are using a
replacement Wireless Receiver or Sensor Cam, you need to pair them
before use. To pair the Sensor Cam and the Wireless Receiver, please
follow the steps on Page 23.

Installing IW2
1. Software Installation
2. Positioning the Sensor Cam
IW2 requires IPEVO IW2 software to function.
Please visit the IPEVO website to download the latest version at:
support.ipevo.com/IW2
After downloading,
For PC:
•Double-click the downloaded file and follow the onscreen prompts to
complete the installation. An IW2 icon will appear at the bottom right-
hand side of the taskbar.
For Mac:
• Double-click the downloaded file. An IW2 icon will appear at the top
right-hand side of the status bar.
Note: After successful installation, an IW2’s Menu for the IW2 will automatically pop up. You
can close it by clicking once on the IW2 icon. If the IW2’s Menu does not appear, you can
start IW2 by navigating to:
PC (Windows 7 and below):
Start Menu -> Program files -> IPEVO -> IW2.
PC (Windows 8): Start Menu -> Apps -> IW2.
Mac: Applications-> IW2.
Proper position of the Sensor Cam is important for optimum operation.
Follow these guidelines to place the Sensor Cam:
• For most projectors, a good position for the Sensor Cam will be the
same location as the projector. One exception to this is if you are
using a short-throw projector. In that case, you will need to place
the Sensor Cam further away from the screen than the projector.
•Minimal distance from your screen depends on screen size. Place the
Sensor Cam according to the recommended distances in the chart on
the following page:

Screen Size 60” 70” 80” 100”
Minimal
Distance
8 ft
(243 cm)
9 ft
(275 cm)
10 ft
(305 cm)
11 ft
(335 cm)
• The Sensor Cam should face directly at the projection screen.
Depending on your screen’s height, you may have to adjust the
Sensor Cam’s Lens to face upwards or downwards. Adjust the
hinged metal base to easily perform any such adjustments.
• The Sensor Cam is best placed opposite the center of the screen at
a straight-on angle. However, a straight-on angle is not required
for acceptable operation, and the Sensor Cam may be placed at
another angle if necessary. Please refer to the diagram below for
placement zones according to accuracy quality:

Installing IW2 (cont’d)
As you can see:
• Accuracy is better when the Sensor Cam is closer to the center.
• Accuracy decreases as the angle increases.
• Larger screens require more distance between the screen and the
Sensor Cam.
Note: Please keep a clear path between the Sensor Cam and the projector screen to ensure
proper operation.
It’s important to make sure your Sensor Cam is steady and secure be-
fore use. There are three ways to secure your Sensor Cam, depending
on your setup:
3. Securing the Sensor Cam
A. Place on a table or AV cart
Use a flat, smooth tabletop or an AV cart. Make sure nothing is block-
ing the Sensor Cam’s path to the screen surface. Adjust the angle of
the Sensor Cam to face directly at the center of the screen surface.
