How to change the height and angle of the stand (sold separately)
These adjustments are required when installing the main device on a stand sold separately. The device
can be set at a height of 1650 mm or 1850 mm and at an inclined angle of 0, 7 or 10 degrees.
(1)Disconnect the power plug from the power
socket on the wall and disconnect all cables
connected to the main body.
(2)Remove the securing knobs (two on the left
and right)
(3)Remove the grommet (two on the left and
right).
(4)Switch the mounting hole positions on the left
and right of the main body.
Lift up the main body by about 1 cm to release it
from the hook.
Hang the main body on the stand by mounting
the holes (two on the left and right) of the main
body fully onto the hooks on the stand.
The height of the mounting hole at the top will be
1650 mm while the height of the mounting hole at
the bottom will be 1850 mm.
(5)Fix and tighten the securing knobs to the
screw holes of the two angle adjustment
fittings on the left and right of the main body.
At this point, the inclination angle of the copy
board will change depending on the screw
holes selected.
(6) Insert into the screw holes (two on the left and
right) used for the securing knobs where the
grommets are no longer used.
(7) Connect the various connection wires.

Operation Steps
The NETWORK FLIPCHART uses an image scanner to scan characters or diagrams drawn using special markers (four col-
ors). When the Color Print or B/W Print button is pressed, the image on the screen is printed out to the printer. When
a USB memory device or computer is connected, the image on the screen is saved as image data when the Save but-
ton is pressed. (For the memory for computer storage, one sheet’s worth of data is saved, overwriting previously saved
data.)
Furthermore, when network settings are made, image files can be saved on the NETWORK FLIPCHART or FTP server.
