Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of the ēno®play option to provide audio with your ēno
classic interactive whiteboard. This manual describes how to install and operate ēno play.
What is ēno play?
ēno play enables you to control audio directly from your ēno classic interactive whiteboard
using driver options on your computer. The ēno play components include an amplifier and two
driver packs that produce audio by vibrating against the back of the ēno whiteboard.
The ēno play provides audio for these ēno classic whiteboards and mounting options:
•ēno classic 2610
•ēno classic 2810

Important considerations
Driver pack positioning
There is only one correct position for the ēno play driver packs that you install on the back of the
whiteboard. Determine the correct driver pack location using the template and instructions provided.
Refer to “Install the driver packs”.
Amplifier positioning
There are two optional positions for the ēno play amplifier that you install on the back of the
whiteboard. Position the amplifier in the lower left or the lower right corner only. Consider the
distance and routing to a power outlet and the audio input source when choosing which location to
install the ēno play amplifier. Refer to “Plan power and audio input cable routing”.
Note: Use care when mounting the ēno play amplifier and driver packs to the back of the
whiteboard. The supplied adhesive is intended to be permanent. If you need to remove or reposition
the components, additional supplies are provided. Refer to “Removing and replacing the cable tie
holders, driver packs or amplifier”.
Power and audio input cable length considerations
Steelcase provides an audio input cable with ēno play. Determine the cable path from the ēno play
amplifier to the audio source. If the distance to your audio source is longer or considerably shorter,
obtain alternate audio input cables from a third party.
Steelcase provides a 6 ft (1829mm) power cable and a 10 ft (3048mm) extension for the amplifier.
Before installing the amplifier, consider which edge of the whiteboard provides optimum access to a
power outlet.
If installing ēno play with any of the ēno one adjustable height solutions, make sure to account for
raising and lowering the whiteboard when you determine the required cable lengths. Refer to “Plan
power and audio input cable routing”. Do not proceed with ēno play installation until you are sure
you have the appropriate cable lengths for your installation.
Cable routing options to the amplifier
The ēno play amplifier includes cable connections for:
•two ēno play driver packs mounted to the back of the whiteboard
•a power outlet
•a permanent or a guest audio input source
The cable routing between the amplifier and the two driver packs is important. Cables must be
routed and secured as described in “Add cable ties and tape”.
The ēno play amplifier provides two audio input connectors: one guest connector and one
permanent connector. The guest connector faces away from the whiteboard for easy access. Refer
to “Using the guest audio input connector”. The permanent connector faces the center of the
whiteboard. Cable routing and cable management between the amplifier and a permanent audio
input source is important. Refer to “Plan power and audio input cable routing”.

Prepare the ēno classic whiteboard
Before beginning to install the ēno play components:
1. If installing ēno play on a new ēno classic whiteboard, unpack the whiteboard and wall
Or
1. If installing ēno play on an ēno classic whiteboard that is already mounted to a wall.
2. Lean the ēno whiteboard against a wall with the back facing you.

Plan power and audio input cable routing
Important Note: Cable management is important. The cables between the driver packs and the
amplifier and any other cables routed against the back of the whiteboard must be secured by
cable ties as described in “Add cable ties and tape”.

ēno play
Before beginning to install the ēno play components, measure and plan cable routing for the ēno
play amplifier power source and audio input. Steelcase provides a 25 ft (7629 mm) audio input
cable, and a power connector with a 6 ft (1829mm) cable plus a 10 ft (3048mm) power cable
extension.
Cable routing considerations include:
•Where is the closest AC power outlet?
•Will the ēno play installation support a guest or a permanent audio input source, or both? If using
the guest audio input connector, refer to “Using the guest audio input connector”.
•If using a permanent audio input source, Where is the source located? Is it above, below or to one
side of the whiteboard?
•How is the whiteboard mounted: directly to a wall, or to an adjustable height system?
Cable routing for whiteboards mounted directly to the wall
To route the amplifier power or permanent audio input cable for whiteboards that will be mounted
directly to the wall:
1. Consider the locations of the power and audio sources to determine cable length
requirements and whether to mount the amplifier on the left or right lower corner of the
whiteboard.
2. Connect the permanent audio input cable and power cable to the amplifier at the same time
that you connect the driver pack cables.
3. As appropriate and to the extent possible, route the power and audio cables in the same
cable bundle as the driver pack cables across the back of the whiteboard.
4. Add tie holders, cable ties and tape as necessary to secure all cables where they cross the
back of the whiteboard.
Note: For more details, refer to “Add cable ties and tape”.

Install the driver packs
Locate and have ready to use:
•driver packs (x2)
•alcohol wipes (x2)
•driver pack mounting template
•tape
To install the driver packs:
1. Slide the driver pack mounting template to the upper left corner of whiteboard and tape it in
place.
Note: The template has a front and back side. Be sure to use the template front in the upper
left corner.

2. Use the illustrations on the template to select the template notches that are appropriate for the
type of whiteboard mounting solution in your installation.
3. Using an alcohol wipe, clean the area about 3” (76mm) below the correct template location.
4. Remove the two self-adhesive backings from a driver pack.
Note: Use care when mounting the ēno play amplifier and drive packs to the back of the
whiteboard. The supplied adhesive is intended to be permanent. If you need to remove or
reposition the components, additional supplies are provided. Refer to “Removing and
replacing the cable tie holders, driver packs or amplifier”.
5. Orient the driver pack with the wires facing the floor. Note the two tabs at the top of the driver
pack.
6. The driver packs are magnetized. Position the driver pack against the template notches at a
300to 450angle without touching the adhesive to the board.
Important Note: Make sure the registration is correct before proceeding. Magnets in the driver
packs will pull the assembly to the board.
7. While holding the driver pack tabs against the template notches, rotate the drive pack
adhesive into contact with the whiteboard.
8. Press hard on the driver pack for 15 seconds.
