QIT30 – Wireless Tablet
1) Mouse cursor not responsive
If the mouse cursor on your computer screen is not responding when you move the pen on the
tablet, please check the following:
a. Ensure that the USB (dongle) is plugged into the USB port and you have installed the
driver on the CD that has come with the tablet. For driver issues see (2).
b. Tablet is turned on and that the LCD screen is displaying icons / text.
i. The text should read: The power symbol, a connectivity symbol, a three digit
number e.g. 001, the active “A” symbol and a pen symbol when you touch the
tablet with the pen.
c. If the connectivity symbol appears on the LCD screen and the USB is plugged in, when
the pen moves towards the tablet a blue light should flash on the USB.
d. If the blue light does not show on the USB, press the button on the USB and the red
button found on the back of the tablet at the same time. This should re-synchronize the
tablet and the USB.
e. Wait for the blue light to stop blinking and then place the pen near the tablet to operate.
If the tablet still does not work after these steps, you more than likely have a driver issue with the
tablet. Please contact Qomo Support.
2) Connectivity/Driver Issues
For Window XP and Vista:
a. Uninstall any previous drivers for the tablet before installing a new one.
b. Go to www.qomo-europe.eu Click on the ‘support’ tab. Then click ‘software’
find the suitable QIT30 Driver.
c. Click on the suitable driver. A pop-up will prompt you to ‘open’ the folder. Click ‘open’
or click ‘save’ to direct the folder to a certain location.
d. Once the folder downloads, open the folder and click on the tab ‘extract’.
e. After the files are extracted you will be able to open the folder and download the driver.
Follow the download instructions that pop up.
f. Once the driver is installed, follow previous instructions for checking connectivity and
then test the tablet.
3) Tablet screen not turning on
a. Flip over the tablet so you are looking at the back side. Slide off the cover in the upper
right corner of the tablet. This is the battery compartment.
www.Qomo-Europe.eu

4
b. First, check if the battery is there. Confirm that it is positioned in the compartment
correctly.
If the battery is in the compartment and positioned correctly, please charge the battery by
connecting it to your computer using the provided USB cable.
If connectivity problems persist and you possess more than one tablet, try to switch the dongle,
pen, tablet, battery, and pc to single out the faulty part.
4) Skipping:
If when operating the tablet, the mouse skips or if excess pressure is required while writing, then
this could be a pen battery problem. Try a new battery.
If the skipping is occurring in a vertical region on the tablet then this usually signals a faulty tablet
and will need to be serviced. Please contact your sales manager.
5) Macro keys:
If the Macro Keys are not working or the tips do not show when you hover over the keys using
your pen (tips appear on the top of your pc screen) then you will need to reinstall the Macro Key
Manager from the QOMO website (Software tab) making sure the driver matches the Operating
System.
If problems persist, please do not hesitate to contact QOMO.

QIT300/QIT500 Interactive Writing Panels
1) No Image
Make sure the VGA cable from the panel is connected to the computer properly, the AC Adaptor
is connected to the wall and the green indicator light is on, and finally the panel monitor is turned
on.
2) Mouse cursor not responding on panel
a. Check that the USB from the panel is plugged into the computer.
b. Please check the pen and make sure that there is a battery, and the pen is turned on by
pushing in the button at the top of the pen. If it still does not function, try with a new
battery.
c. If there is still no connectivity please check the driver. Go to www.qomo-europe.eu
•Find the ‘Interactives’ subject line and click on the proper link. For example,
if you need to install a driver for our QIT500 for a 64-bit operating system
running with Windows XP, you would choose ‘QIT500 Driver for Windows
XP/VISTA/7’.
•Install the driver and then please check that the panel works by touching the
panel with your pen.

QOMO Interactive Whiteboards
1) Connectivity/Driver Issues
a. Please insert the CD that came with your whiteboard and follow the instructions. Make
sure to install the driver before you connect the board to the computer.
b. Ensure that the board driver is installed by looking for a Red and Black Bow-tie icon (IR
board) or a Blue TV with an orange circle (EM boards) should appear in the bottom right
corner of your desktop (see image below). This is your board driver icon which indicates
that the driver is installed.
c. Make sure that the USB cable from the board is plugged into the computer and the
whiteboard and the indicator light on the bottom right of the board is on and steady (not
flickering).
d. Once you have the USB connection from your board to your computer, the two icons
should say connected when you hover over them with your mouse.
e. If the board icon indicates NO CONNECTION has been made, check the compatibility of
the whiteboard with your computer operating system by checking the QOMO website at
http://www.qomo.com/ProductList.aspx?CategoryID=5. Find your whiteboard model and
check the “specifications” tab.

f. If your whiteboard is compatible with your operating system, check for the latest driver
for the board at ftp://qomo08.pointto.us/Whiteboard/QWB200-300%20IR/ . Select your
board model and look for the latest driver (Flow! Works). If your version is incorrect,
you will need to uninstall any previous drivers before installing the new one and then
restart your computer. To uninstall drivers, go to your start menu, click on the “control
panel”, click on “Programs and Features” for Windows Vista and “Add or Remove
Programs” for Windows XP, select the whiteboard driver that you wish to uninstall, right
click and chose uninstall. Or, if your board is connected to your computer, go to “Device
Manager” (To help you locate “Device Manager”, you can use the computer search
engine on your “Start Menu”). Your board driver will be listed in your Device Manager,
where it can be uninstalled.
Note: Board driver names can vary. E.g. PL-2303 and HHT-Tech5

2) Power Issues/No visual on the whiteboard:
a. For USB powered boards, make sure that the USB cable is plugged into the computer and
the whiteboard and that the computer is on. There is no other power supply. For wireless
boards, there will be no USB connection to the computer but the board will have an AC
adaptor, please ensure that the AC adaptor is connected to the wall and the board, and the
green indicator light is on.
b. Please make sure that you have a projector, make sure that it is on, not on sleep mode,
and that it is connected to your computer. If you continue to have problems, contact
technical support at [e-mail]. Note: Whiteboards do not
show visuals merely through the USB cable only, you must have a projector turned on
and connected.
3) Calibrating Issues:
a. In order to calibrate IR and Electromagnetic boards double click on the Red and Black
Bow-tie or the Blue TV with an orange circle icon respectively in the bottom right hand
corner of the computer.
b. Click calibrate.
c. Press on the points that are prompted with your finger (Infrared) or pen
(Electromagnetic).
www.Qomo-Europe.eu

d. Try moving your finger or pen across the board and make sure the mouse cursor is in
sync with either of them. If not, use the arrows on the calibration box above to adjust for
any deviation and click OK.
e. If you have calibration problems even after you calibrate, especially around the corners of
the board, it is possibly a projector problem. The projector could either be too close or too
far from the board, minimize the use of keystone adjustment and zoom, and always
manually adjust the image to fit within the frame of the board. There are indicators on the
board that guide where the image shall project. If your board has hot keys then ensure
that the projector image is between the markings on the bottom right and top left of the
board. The projector image should not exceed those markings.
4) Board damage
Sometimes the board may experience damage due to mishandling during shipping or improper
storage which may prevent the board from connecting to the computer or may cause the cursor to
skip during writing. Please contact QOMO support who can help you detect if the circuit boards
are bad or address uneven board surface issues.
