Installation Guide

Connecting the Whiteboard

There are two ways to connect the Whiteboard: using a ScreenBeam Receiver, or directly to the laptop. The advantage of connecting via a ScreenBeam Receiver is that the user will be able to move around with the laptop, since it is connected wirelessly, instead of having it physically coupled to the Whiteboard using a USB cable.

Connecting with a ScreenBeam Receiver

Note: This Guide assumes that the Whiteboard is mounted on a wall, or otherwise permanently located in its operating position. For wall-mounting instructions, see “Mounting the Whiteboard” on page 1 of this Guide.

There are two parts to connecting the Whiteboard with the Receiver: a) connecting the Receiver to the Whiteboard; and b) connecting the laptop and

Receiver wirelessly. Also, Actiontec recommends using a short-throw projector with the Whiteboard, as less shadowing will occur with this type of projector.

Connecting the ScreenBeam Receiver to the Whiteboard

To connect the Receiver to the Whiteboard:

1. Insert one end of the provided USB cable into the USB port of the Receiver.

2. Insert the other end into the USB port of the Whiteboard.

3. Insert one end of the provided HDMI cable into the Receiver’s

HDMI port.

4. Insert the other end into the projector’s HDMI port.

5. Insert one end of the Receiver’s power cord into the Receiver’s power port.

6. Insert the other end into an electrical wall outlet.

7. Make sure the projector is set to use its HDMI input.

Note: The Receiver can also be connected via VGA cable (not provided), instead of an HDMI cable. If connecting with a VGA cable, skip steps 3 and 4 from the previous procedure, and connect the VGA cable between the Receiver’s VGA port and the VGA port of the projector. Then, make sure the projector is set to use its VGA input.

Connecting the Laptop and ScreenBeam Receiver

After the Receiver is connected to the Whiteboard, the laptop and

Receiver must be connected. The procedures to do this differ, depending on the operating system running on the laptop (either Windows 10, or

Windows 7/8/8.1).

Note: The default pin is 12345670.

Windows 10

If the laptop is running Windows 10, go to

http://www.actiontec.com/setupsb and follow the onscreen instructions.

Windows 7/8/8.1

If the laptop is running Windows 7/8/8.1, go to

http://www.actiontec.com/setupsb and follow the onscreen instructions.

Note: If the laptop is running Windows 8.1, connect via the Intel Wi-Di application. To download the latest Wi-Di version, go to:

http://www.intel.com/go/wirelessdisplayupdate

This link will also allow Windows 7/8 users upgrade to the latest WiDi application release.
