Usage Notice
Please follow all warnings, precautions and maintenance as recommended in this user's manual.
Warning - Do not disassemble the IR Pens.
Warning - Do not use, store, or leave the IR Pens near fire, or in places with a high temperature,
e.g., in direct sunlight, or in sun-heated cars.
Warning –Use a standard USB cable (maximum length: 5m). To extend the USB cable length over
5m, a certified active extension USB cable is required.
Warning - Do not allow liquid or foreign material to enter the IR Pen.
Precautions
The IR camera on the projector receives infrared signals from the IR Pen.
To operate normally:
The IR camera should face the projection area of the whiteboard.
Remove any obstacle in between the IR camera and the whiteboard.
Do not place other infrared communication devices, lighting equipment, or residential heating
equipment etc., nearby.
Maintenance: Gently clean the pen tip with dust blower.
How it works
The IR camera picks up the invisible IR light emitted from the tip of the IR Pen.
The camera module tracks multiple touch points and reports positions to a PC or laptop via USB.
To optimize the touch function the whiteboard needs to be flat and in good condition, without dents
or warping.

Before Installation - Environment Check
Before setting up and installing the projector ensure that the power supply and wiring work for the installation
location of the mount in advance.
Note:
Install the projector away from other electrical devices such as florescent lights or air conditioners.
Some kinds of florescent lights could interfere with the remote control of the projector
We recommend to keep source cable length less than 20 meters to reduce external noise
We recommend using a steel backed whiteboard
Make sure the projector is installed under the following conditions
- the projected image is a rectangular shape without any distortion
- the projector is tilted at an angle no more than +/-3 degrees vertically and horizontal in relation to
the screen
When using the interactive function install the projector so that the projected image is within reach
Do not install the projector or screen in a location subject to direct sunlight. If the projector and
screen are subject to direct sunlight, the interactive function may not operate correctly.

Installing the mount
Step 1: Attach the wall plate to the wall
For ease of installation mount the bracket on the wall using position 1 and mark other positions using
a spirit level.
Remove bracket and drill other positions
Use fixings suitable for your type of wall construction
Use all available fixing points
If in any doubt of the suitability of the wall, it’s construction or what type of fixings to use, consult a
qualified builder or installer
Note: Remove wall plate cover before attaching to wall. Retain fixings for re-attaching cover later.

8
Step 2: Attach the projector to the mount plate
Place the projector on a soft clean surface
Position the pre-assembled mounting plate on top of the projector
Insert 5xA (M4 x 10mm) screws from the fixing kit, tighten with a posidrive screwdriver

9
Step 3: Attach the projector to the mount
Lift the projector and mounting plate in to position –Fig 3A
Lift the projector so the two hooks slip over the protrusions on the black molding –Fig 3B
Position the washer Cand teardrop shaped locking washer Dagainst the hooks –Fig 3C
Insert bolt B(M8 x 75mm) and tighten it using the one of the allen keys provided –Fig 3D

10
Step 4: Adjusting the projected image size
Loosen the two bolts on the projector caddy –Fig 4A
Loosen the bot on the fine length adjustor –Fig 4B
Slide the caddy and fine adjuster together until the screen size is nearly correct –Fig 4C
Tighten the fixing bolt on the fine adjuster –Fig 4D
Adjust highlighted bolt to fine adjust the throw distance –Fig 4E
To reduce the projected image size, tighten the bolt clockwise using one of the allen keys provided to
move the projector closer to the screen
To increase the projected image size, loosen the bolt anticlockwise using one of the allen keys
provided to move the projector away from the screen
Once fine adjustment is done. Tighten the two caddy mounting bolts –Fig 4F

11
Step 5: Adjusting the tilt (vertical keystone)
Loosen the single M8 x 75mm bolt –Fig 5A
Adjust the projector to the required angle –Fig 5B
Tighten the bolt to lock the angle of the projector –Fig 5C
Adjust the highlighted thumbwheel to fine adjust the tilt angle –Fig 5D
To decrease the angle of projection, tighten the thumbwheel clockwise
To increase the angle of projection, loosen the thumbwheel anticlockwise
Step 6: Adjusting the tilt (yaw)

12
Adjust the highlighted thumbwheel to fine adjust the yaw angle –Fig 6E
To lower the left hand side of the projector, tighten the thumbwheel clockwise
To lower the right hand side of the projector, loosen the thumbwheel anticlockwise

13
Step 7: Adjusting the tilt (horizontal keystone)
The projector mount is pre-tensioned and can be rotated by hand
Adjust the highlighted thumbwheel to fine adjust the rotation of the projector –Fig 7A
To bring the left hand side of the projector closer to the screen, tighten the thumbwheel clockwise
To bring the right hand side of the projector close to the screen, loosen the thumbwheel
anticlockwise

IR Pen setup
Step 1: Install Utility Software
1. System requirements
To ensure normal operation of the touch function, your computer must meet the system requirements
shown in the table below.
System requirement
Operating system
Microsoft Windows XP (SP3)/Windows 7 (32bit/64bit)/Windows 8
(Must be installed. NET Framework 4.0)
CPU
Intel® Core™ i3 or above
Memory
2GB or higher
Min. hard disk space
110 MB
2. Install the software utility from the CDROM. The status of the software is shown in the task bar, the icons
shown below describe the mode the software is set to:
Finger/Stylus mode
Active Pen mode
Disconnected

16
Step 2: Interactive Mode
Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems support multi-point touch control. Users can select default
Finger/Stylus Mode ( ) for multi-point touch, Or switch to Active Pen Mode ( ) when using the light pen
(IR pen).
Note: Windows XP and MAC operating systems only support single-point touch

17
Step 3: Touch Area Setting
A. Select Auto Touch Area Setting:
Note:
Quit all software applications
Reduce ambient light
Do not obstruct or shake lens during Touch Area Setting
Check if projection image is clear. If not, adjust focus to sharpen the image
If fail message pops up, switch to Manual Touch Area Setting.
B. Select Manual Touch Area Setting:

18
B-1. After the camera captures the projection image, a Touch Area window will pop up. If the
captured image is not clear enough, please re-select “Ambient light mode selection” from “Auto”
to “Bright” or “Dim” according to actual ambient light condition.
Remark: Captured image shows the actual camera view, which is reversed from projection
image. For example: P1 is lower right corner, P2 is lower left corner and so on.
B-2. Touch Area Boundary Fine-tuning
Step 1: Click on P1, use mouse to drag P1 to upper left corner. Align adjustable green zone
with projected white frame.
Step 2: Adjust P2 to P4 accordingly; adjustable green zone should completely overlaps the
projected white frame.
Step 3: Finally, check again if the green frame completely overlaps the projected white frame.
If not, fine-adjust again.
B-3. When the Touch Area is correctly located click “Exit”to exit.

19
Step 4: Calibration
A. Select Manual Calibration
Note:
If the fail message pops up, follow the steps shown below to troubleshoot the issues.
Close all software applications
Reduce ambient light
Do not obstruct or shake lens during calibration
Check if projection image is clear. If not, adjust focus to sharpen the image
Manual Calibration is suggested for better accuracy.

Step 5: Trouble-shooting Viewer
Sometimes infrared red light (IR light) from ambient light sources may interfere with touch performance. The
troubleshooting viewer shows real time images for debugging purposes.
Any infrared light interference is now shown in the window.
Note: Interactive function is disabled under trouble-shooting viewer, click to exit.
