The Vaddio Squiggle Board
Overview:
The Squiggle Board is a part of Vaddio’s Automated Content
Presentation Systems (ACPS™) product line and was
specifically designed and manufactured (in the USA) to deliver a
unique solution for converting content written on a whiteboard
directly into a high definition or standard definition video output.
Typical approaches to capturing content on a whiteboard have
ranged from installing a camera on a wall opposite the
whiteboard to using an interactive whiteboard with an external
PC and specialized software. With a whiteboard camera,
washed out, reflective, low quality images of the text and
diagrams written on the whiteboard are often the result. Unlike
an interactive whiteboard, the Squiggle Board isn’t limited by a
PC platform, processor speeds or required OS versions and
frequent updates. It has no system requirements, no minimum
RAM size, and no minimum hard drive space requirements.
The Squiggle Board is a quality, porcelain-on-steel surface to withstand years of service. The Squiggle Board
captures the image as it is drawn with the marker and digital maker sleeve in real-time with the Digital Control
Panel integrated into the whiteboard frame and uses proven Vaddio EZCamera™ cabling technologies for
extending power and data over a single Cat-5e cable to the Squiggle Quick-Connect™ Interface. The Quick-
Connect Interface interprets the data and outputs high definition DVI-D or HDMI (HDMI with cable adapter) and high
definition YPbPr analog component video at resolutions of 720p/59.94Hz and 720p/50Hz or standard definition
video at 480i/NTSC and 576i/PAL. The HD/SD video output essentially makes the Squiggle Board 100%
compatible with all Vaddio video products, as well as the most popular videoconferencing, distance education
systems and HD televisions available today.
The Squiggle Board video whiteboard system simply redefines the concept of the electronic whiteboard for
presentation, videoconferencing, distance learning, media retrieval and on-line curriculum applications world-wide.

Installation Notes and Procedures
Before Installing:
•Locate the whiteboard location paying close attention to whiteboard height requirements, location in the room,
lighting conditions, and checking for in-wall obstructions.
•Keep other IR or Ultrasonic devices and reflective surfaces away from the whiteboard location.
•The 4’ x 6’ whiteboard is supplied with 8-clips & screws and the 4’ x 8’ whiteboard is supplied with 10-clips and
screws for mounting purposes, as well as spiral drywall anchors and 8-32 x 1.25” screws.
Step 1: Before installing the Squiggle Board, run the Cat-5e cabling from the equipment head-end to where the
whiteboard is to be installed. Make sure that there is enough excess cable to run to the bottom left corner of the
whiteboard, where the USB extender is located.
Step 2: Attach the bottom mounting angle clips to the wall with the required wall fasteners at the proper marker
tray height, as specified by the customer, or room requirements.
Note: Vaddio supplies necessary hardware for mounting the whiteboard to standard drywall. Installation
of the whiteboard on masonry or other walls requires specialized mounting screws, available through
construction hardware suppliers. Ensure that all clips/hangers are level, when attaching them to the wall.
Step 3A: If the Cat-5e is to be run inside the wall cavity (drywall) to the location where the whiteboard is to be
installed, then measure out and drill a hole through the drywall for the Cat-5e to be run through corner below the
Digital Control Panel on the left side of the whiteboard. See the drawing of the Squiggle Board back below for
measurements.

Squiggle Board Manual 342-0069 Rev. C Page 7 of 16
Installation (continued):
Step 3B: If the Cat. 5e cable is to be surfaced mounted, install Panduit® or some other type of conduit (not
included) on the wall to the corner below the electronic receiver side of the whiteboard. On the marker tray end
cap, there is a 7/8” grommet hole to easily terminate the cable to the USB interface, which is installed in the marker
tray. If the cable can also run along the floor as long as it is secured and does not become a hazard to anyone that
would come in contact with the cabling.
Step 4: To install the top angle clips, measure 4’ (1.22m) from the slotted side of the bottom angle clip. Attach the
top clips to the wall. Tighten the screws and clips, but DO NOT TIGHTEN completely.
Step 5: Install the whiteboard by placing the bottom of the board on the top of the bottom mounting clip. It is
recommended that at least two (2) people are involved with lifting and setting the whiteboard in place. Press the
whiteboard firmly to the wall and install screws furnished through the bottom clips of the board only. Pre-drilling the
holes may help the speed of the installation process.
Step 6: After installing the screws into the bottom of the whiteboard, use a wooden block to tap the mounting clips
down tight against the top of the whiteboard trim, and install screws.
Step 7: If protective film covers the whiteboard surface, then remove it. CLEAN THE WHITEBOARD SURFACE
BEFORE USE. See cleaning instructions. The whiteboard is easier to erase after it has been cleaned.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Check all Cat-5e cables for continuity in advance of the final connection. See disclaimer on page 3.
Step 8 - Finishing Up the connections:
Below the Digital Control Panel, there is a cable in the side rail that runs down to the marker tray on the left side.
Remove the left plastic marker rail end-cap with the 7/8” grommet to make the connections, as this is where a USB
Gender Changer and the USB to Cat. 5e plug QC-Extender/Regulator is located.
•Attach the USB B-Female from the whiteboard control panel to the USB B-Male to A-Female adapter
provided.
•Attach the QC-Extender A-Male to the A-Female side of the adapter.
•Finally, attach the Cat. 5e to the RJ-45 jack on the QC-Extender.
•At the head end Squiggle Quick-Connect Interface, plug in the Cat. 5e cable into the RJ-45 jack labeled
TO VIDEO WHITEBOARD.
•Re-attach the plastic end cap and make sure to clean the surface BEFORE using it. Cleaning it first
makes it easier to erase.

Step 9 - The “Seems Obvious” Step: Put the provided batteries in the Digital Pen Sleeve and the Digital Eraser.
•Pen: Twist the pen sleeve cap counter-clockwise and put two (2) CR2032 batteries provided, stacked
positive (+) side up, and return the cap. Put the bullet nose black marker in the pen sleeve.
•Eraser: With a coin, twist the digital eraser cap counter-clockwise and put two (2) CR2032 batteries
provided, stacked positive (+) side up and return the cap.
Step 10 - Setting the 5-Position Dip Switch:
The Squiggle Quick-Connect Interface has a 5-position dip switch accessible on the rear panel. The switch settings
are on the following table:
Example Set-ups:
•HD, 720p/59.94, Color Bars Off: SW1 = UP, SW2 = UP, SW5 = UP
•SD, 480i/NTSC, Color Bars Off: SW1 = DN, SW2 = UP, SW5 = UP
•HD, 720p/50, Color Bars Off: SW1 = UP, SW2 = DN, SW5 = UP
•SD, 576i/PAL, Color Bars Off: SW1 = DN, SW2 = DN, SW5 = UP
Notes: Default Position for all Switches is UP = HD, 720p/59.94, SMPTE Color Bars OFF.
Switches 3 and 4 are not used and are for future use.
The Color Bars are a video testing convenience only.
Using the Squiggle Board:
Upon connection and powering up the Squiggle Quick-Connect Interface, the System will boot up and the Vaddio
splash screen will be seen on the 720p or SD display device.
Automatically, the Software Version number, MAC address and the legal notices are displayed briefly. The MAC

Using the Squiggle Board (continued): The system will load the default 4’ x 6’ calibration size. It is
recommended that if you have a 4’ x 6’ whiteboard, perform the calibration process anyway. The 4’ x 8’
whiteboard, or any other size, requires calibration. The process to calibrate the system is as follows:
1) Touch the Calibration button on the Digital Control Panel and the following screen is displayed.
The prompt, “Using the Electronic whiteboard marker, tap each highlighted target” will be displayed. Start in the
upper left corner and proceed tapping the targets from top to bottom in the order shown above. When the
calibration is complete, the system is ready for use.
If there is an unintentional mistake during calibration, simply touch the calibration button again to stop the process.
To restart calibration, touch the button again.
To Save the Whiteboard Content to USB Drive:
Put a flash drive into the Squiggle Quick-Connect front panel USB port. This port supports only FAT32 or FAT16
formatted drives. Touch the Flash Drive Icon on the Digital Control Panel and the system will show the prompt
“Saving image, Please wait…”
After the image is saved the following prompt is displayed briefly:
At this point, the drive may be removed or left in the USB port for future content to be saved. The image saved can
be loaded into any computer device that can accept the FAT32/16 file format and view the image as a JPEG.
Important Note:
Remember to put two (2)
CR2032 batteries into the
Digital Pen Sleeve, stacked
with the positive (+) sides up,
to allow the pen to calibrate
the system. See Step 9 of
the Installation Procedures.

FOR BEST RESULTS:
Pen & Eraser Etiquette:
The Squiggle Board Pen Holder is the device that is tracked
by the ultra sonic sensors and the IR sensor. In order to
achieve the best results, adhere to the following guidelines.
•Always write with the pen tip making contact at a 90°
angle (perpendicular) to the whiteboard surface.
•Carefully and firmly press the pen and pen holder to the
whiteboard surface. It is a firm contact that engages the
sonic transmitters and allows the pens to be tracked.
Pressing too lightly with the pen may result in line drop
outs.
•Use bullet point, regular markers for best results. The low odor markers are eco-friendly, however these eco
markers are difficult to erase as the oils are removed to prevent the odor. Normal bullet nosed markers work
best.
•When pressing the Digital Maker Sleeve and Pen at a 90° angle, a slight buzzing sound may be audible. This
is really normal. Most people will check the battery by holding it up to their ear - but please do not insert the
pen in your or anybody else’s ear.
•An indication of a possible low battery condition in the Digital Pen Sleeve or Digital Eraser is the inability to
write/erase on the far end of the whiteboard opposite from the Digital Control Panel.
•When returning the pen cap, the pen can be triggered if handled improperly. The whiteboard sensors can
receive the pulse and leave a dot or very short line on the video image. If this is undesirable, turn away from
the whiteboard during a session and then put the pen cap on the marker holder.
•Loose clothing such as cuffs or puffy “pirate sleeves” can block the pen transmitters and cause drop outs and
less than acceptable results.
•The porcelain over steel whiteboard surface is magnetic. Please do not attach papers to the whiteboard
surface with a magnet. The paper will interfere with the pen tracking and may produce some wicked-awful
lines, again with mostly undesirable effects.
•The Squiggle Board uses ultra sonic and IR technology. There are some devices in any presentation
environment that may cause interference with normal operation. Try to mitigate interference between all
devices using ultra sonic or IR technology for best results. The resonating induction inhibitor will cancel most
stray interference, but certainly not all of it.
•If colored pen sleeves are purchased as an option, the color ring of the marker sleeve should be matched to the
pen color to avoid multiphasic polarizing regeneration. The color of the marker sleeve ring will match the color
of the video displayed.
•The Digital Eraser works like the Digital Pens. To selectively erase portions of the whiteboard content, press
the eraser firmly against the whiteboard at a 90° angle (perpendicular) to engage the ultra sonic and IR
transmitters. If there are pesky line remnants on the video after trying to erase the whole whiteboard with the
Digital Eraser, these are a result of not holding the eraser at a perfect 90° angle to the whiteboard surface.
To do a mass erase job, first touch the Erase Button on the Digital Control Panel and whip out a
sizeable regular whiteboard eraser device and rub down the whole whiteboard. Remember to
clean the surface with high quality Whiteboard Cleaner (Nettoyant de Tableau Blanc) to clean and
refresh the whiteboard periodically. Cleaning will make it easier to erase…really.
