lFailure to follow the installation instructions shipped with your SMART product could result in
personal injury and product damage which may not be covered by your warranty.
lDo not open or disassemble the SMART product. You risk electrical shock from the high
voltage inside the casing. Opening the casing also voids your warranty.
lDo not stand (or allow children to stand) on a chair to touch the surface of your SMART
product. Rather, mount the product at the appropriate height.
lTo reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the SMART product to rain or
moisture.
lIf your SMART product requires replacement parts, make sure the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by SMARTTechnologies or parts with the same characteristics
as the original.
lEnsure that any cables extending across the floor to your SMART product are properly
bundled and marked to avoid a trip hazard.
lDo not insert objects inside the cabinet ventilation holes, because they could touch
dangerous voltage points and cause electric shock, fire or product damage which may not be
covered by your warranty.
lDo not place any heavy objects on the power cable. Damage to the cable could cause shock,
fire or product damage which may not be covered by your warranty.
lUseonly extension cords and outlets into which this product’s polarized plug can be fully
inserted.

lThis SMART product should be used only with European TN and TT power distribution
systems.
It is not suitable for older, IT-type power distribution systems found in some European
countries. "This system (IT-type) is widely used isolated from earth, in some installations in
France, with impedance to earth, at 230/400V, and in Norway, with voltage limiter, neutral
not distributed, at 230V line-to-line." (IEC 60950:1999)
Contact qualified personnel if you’re uncertain of the type of power system available where
you’re installing your SMART product.
lYou must connect the USB cable that came with your SMARTBoard® interactive flat panel
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 flat panel.

Feature highlights
Commercial-grade, touch-enabled flat panel
Your SMARTBoard 8070i interactive flat panel features SMART’s proprietary DViT® (Digital Vision
Touch) technology on an LCD screen which enables you to select, write and erase on the interactive
surface. It enables you to do everything you can do at your computer—open and close applications,
conference with others, create new documents or edit existing ones, visit websites, play and
manipulate video clips and more—just by touching the interactive surface. Two users can also draw
on the interactive surface at the same time, and you can use an array of gestures within applications.
You can also write over any application in digital ink using a pen tray pen or your finger, and then save
these notes for future reference and distribution.
Elegant, sophisticated design
The professional design and crisp, eye-catching visuals of the SMARTBoard 8070i interactive flat
panel make it perfect for any high-end workspace.
Software
To use all the features of your interactive flat panel described in this guide, go to
smarttech.com/downloads and ensure that you have the latest version of SMART software and
SMART Product Drivers installed on your computer.
Dual sketch capabilities
Two people can each pick up a pen and draw on the interactive surface at the same time, providing a
higher degree of interactivity.
SMARTInk™
SMARTInk enables you to write and draw in digital ink over open applications, files, folders,
websites and any other open window on your computer. When you write outside the open windows on
your computer, a SMARTInk Note appears and you can write inside the note.
When you open an application that has its own ink tools, you can turn off SMARTInk, and then use
the application's ink tools to write in the content.
For more information, see the SMARTInk user’s guide for Windows® operating systems
(smarttech.com/kb/170191) or SMARTInk user's guide for MacOSX operating system software
(smarttech.com/kb/170192).
