Note
Unlike previous SMART Board interactive displays, the SMART Board 6000S and 6000S Pro series
interactive displays don’t require an iQ appliance in the accessory slot. The iQ experience is built into
these interactive displays (see iQ experience on page11). For this reason, SMART doesn’t support
installing iQ appliances in these displays’ accessory slots. However, the AM50 appliance allows the
use of an Intel Compute Card on the 6000S and SMART Board 6000S (C) models.
Convenience panel
The convenience panel provides buttons for turning the display on and
off, controlling the volume, freezing and unfreezing the screen, and
showing and hiding a screen shade. It also includes connectors for USB
peripherals and a computer or other input source (available connectors
vary by model, see Connecting room computers and guest laptops on
page34).
Proximity sensor
On SMART Board 6000S (V3) models, the proximity sensor is located
in the top-right corner of the display’s frame. On the 6000S and
6000S (C) models, the sensor is in the top-left corner.
The proximity sensor can detect people up to approximately 16' (5 m)
away when the display is in an energy saving mode mode.

Chapter 1 Welcome
smarttech.com/kb/171414 14
When the proximity sensor detects people in the room, the display turns on, depending on how it’s
configured.
If the room is empty for a specified period, the display returns to an energy saving mode.
Notes
lFor more information on energy saving modes, see
About energy saving modes on page30.
lThe proximity sensor on the SMART Board 6000S (V3) models responds when the display is in the
networked standby and the standby power states. On the 6000S and 6000S (C)models, the
proximity sensor responds only when the display is in the networked standby power state.
lThe sensor can detect people through glass. Consider this when finding a location for the display
(see Installing the display on a wall on page22). Don’t position the display so that the sensor is
facing a window.
Ambient light sensor
On SMART Board 6000S (V3) models, the ambient light sensor is
located in the top-right corner of the display’s frame. On the 6000S
and 6000 (C) models, the sensor is in the top-left corner.
The ambient light sensor detects the room’s brightness and adjusts
the brightness of the screen accordingly.
You can enable, disable, and adjust this feature (see Appendix A Adjusting settings on page60).
Remote control and IR sensor
You can use the remote control to turn the display on and off, adjust
display settings, and so on.
On SMART Board 6000S (V3) models, the IR sensor is located in the
top-right corner of the display’s frame. On the 6000S and 6000S (C)
models, the sensor is in the top-left corner.

Chapter 1 Welcome
smarttech.com/kb/171414 15
Temperature and humidity sensors
The display features integrated temperature and humidity sensors that can provide
real-time measurement and recording of the display’s environmental conditions. This
data is easily accessible using the temperature and humidity app in the display’s App
library.
Note
Temperature and humidity sensors are available only when iQ is enabled.
Microphone array
This feature is available only on the SMART Board 6000S (V3) and SMART Board 6000S (V3)
Pro models.
Note
The SMART Board 6400S (V3) Pro models do not include a microphone array.
You can use the display’s built-in microphone array while using a conferencing app on the display. The
microphone array provides improved sound detection. You can also use the display’s built-in
microphone array in place of a connected computer’s microphone.
NFC sign in
The display allows you to sign in to your SMART Account using NFC (near field communication): just tap
your SMART ID card on the screen and enter a PIN. This feature helps you save time signing in to your
account without typing your username and password.
Note

SMART OPS PC module
SMART Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) PC modules provide a hassle-
free Windows Pro installation based on Intel®Core™ processors and are
designed specifically to work with a SMART display. All OPS PC modules are
WHQL certified and fully licensed with Windows Pro. Install the OPS PC
module in adisplay’s accessory slot to provide a complete 4K UHD Windows
installation at your fingertips, without the need for an external PC or
additional cables.
Install familiar Windows applications, such as SMARTNotebook®, SMARTTeamWorks™, and
SMARTMeetingPro® software, and access the internet directly through your display’s network
connection. Upgrades and service for the OPS PC module are easy to perform without removing the
display from its mounting.
Note
Refer to an application’s specifications for information about its computer requirements.
Stands
If you want to move the display from place to place, you can install it on a SMART mobile stand. If you
are installing the display on a wall that cannot support the display’s full weight, you can install the display
on a SMART floor stand.
