Important information
Before you install and use your SMARTBoard®800ix2 interactive whiteboard system, read and
understand the safety warnings and precautions in this user’s guide and the included important
information document. These safety warnings and precautions describe the safe and correct
operation of your interactive whiteboard system and its accessories, helping you to prevent injuries
and equipment damage. Ensure that your interactive whiteboard system is always being used
correctly.
In this document, “interactive whiteboard system” refers to the following:
lSMARTBoard 800 series interactive whiteboard
lSMARTUX80 projector
lAccessories and optional equipment
The projector included with your system is designed to work only with certain SMARTBoard
interactive whiteboard models. Contact your authorized SMART reseller (smarttech.com/where) for
more information.
Safety warnings, cautions and important
information
Installation
WARNING
lFailure to follow the installation instructions shipped with your SMART product could result in
personal injury and damage to the product.
lTo reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the SMART product to rain or
moisture.

I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N
ii smarttech.com/kb/170453
lTwo people are required to mount your SMART product because it may be too heavy for one
person to safely maneuver.
When you lift your interactive whiteboard, you and your assistant should stand on either side
of the screen, supporting its weight at the bottom while balancing the top with your other
hands.
lWhen mounting the projector boom on a framed or hollow wall, attach the mounting bracket to
a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you use only drywall anchors, the drywall can
fail, resulting in possible personal injury, and damage to the product which may not be covered
by your warranty.
lDo not leave cables on the floor where they can be a tripping hazard. If you must run a cable
over the floor, lay it in a flat, straight line and secure it to the floor with tape or a cable
management strip of a contrasting color. Handle cables carefully and avoid excessive
bending.
C A U T I O N
lDo not operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture can condense on the lens
and crucial internal parts. Allow the system to stabilize to room temperature before operation
to prevent possible damage to the unit.
lDo not place the unit in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause a
malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.
lAvoid setting up and using the SMART product in an area with excessive levels of dust,
humidity and smoke.
lDo not place your SMART product in direct sunlight or near any appliance that generates a
strong magnetic field.
lIf you need to lean the interactive whiteboard against a wall before you mount it, make sure it
remains in an upright position, resting on the pen tray brackets, which can sustain the weight
of the interactive whiteboard.
Do not rest the interactive whiteboard on its side or on the top of the frame.

I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N
iii smarttech.com/kb/170453
lYou must connect the USB cable that came with your SMARTBoard interactive whiteboard to
a computer that has a USB compliant interface and that bears the USB logo. In addition, the
USB source computer must be compliant with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and
CSA and/or UL Mark(s) for CSA/UL 60950. This is for operating safety and to avoid damage to
the SMARTBoard interactive whiteboard.
I M P O R T A N T
lThe SMARTBoard 885ix2 and 885ix2-SMP interactive whiteboard system textless
installation guide is also available online (smarttech.com/kb/170341).
lMake sure an electrical socket is near your SMART product and remains easily accessible
during use.
lUsing your SMART product near a TV or radio could cause interference to the images or
sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the projector.
Operation
WARNING
lIf you are using an external audio system, use only the power supply included with that
product. Using the wrong power supply might create a safety hazard or damage the
equipment. If in doubt, refer to the specification sheet for your product to verify the power
supply type.
lDo not climb (or allow children to climb) on a wall- or stand-mounted SMARTBoard interactive
whiteboard.
Do not climb on, hang from or suspend objects from the projector boom.
Climbing on the interactive whiteboard or projector boom could result in personal injury
or product damage.
lTo prevent injury or product and property damage, use only the mounting hardware supplied
with your SMARTBoard 800 series interactive whiteboard when you install your product on
drywall. The mounting hardware provided with other interactive whiteboards may not be strong
enough to support the weight of SMARTBoard 800 series interactive whiteboards.

I M P O R T A N T I N F O R M A T I O N

C A U T I O N
lDo not block the projector’s ventilation slots and openings.
lIf dust or small items prevent pen tray buttons from being pressed or cause constant button
contact, remove the obstructions carefully.
I M P O R T A N T
lIf you have peripheral devices that do not use a 3.5 mm phone jack audio in/out, a DB15 VGA
video input connector or an HDMI™ video connector, you may need to purchase third-party
adapters.
lKeep your remote control in a safe place because there is no other way to access menu
options.
lDo not disconnect cables from the ECP to connect peripheral devices because you could
disconnect controls for your interactive whiteboard.
lDisconnect the product from its power source when it is not used for a long period.
Other precautions
If you own a SMARTproduct other than a SMARTBoard 800ix2 series interactive whiteboard
system, refer to the warnings document that shipped with your product for relevant warnings and
maintenance instructions.
