Using the DT770 with a Mac Computer

If you connect your DT770 to a Mac computer, the information below replaces the equivalent 
information in the 

Sympodium DT770 Interactive Pen Display Installation Guide

.

Setting the Resolution

The installation guide states on pages 8, 11 and 12 that, for best results, you should use a 
computer that supports SXGA resolution. SXGA (1280 × 1024) is the native resolution of the 
DT770.

However, if your DT770 is connected to a Mac computer, and you see a black border at the top 
and bottom of the DT770’s interactive screen, try a number of different resolutions to determine 
which one produces the best results.

NOTE:

 Don’t set the computer’s resolution to greater than 1280 × 1024.

Capturing the Screen

The installation guide states on page 17 that if you press the Screen Capture button, the Capture 
toolbar appears. However, if your DT770 is connected to a Mac computer and you press the 

Screen Capture

 button, you automatically capture the entire screen. There is no Capture toolbar 

for the Mac version of SMART Board software. 

Pressing the Floating Tools Button

The installation guide states on page 17 that if you press the Floating Tools button, the Floating 
Tools appear. However, if your DT770 is connected to a Mac computer and you press the 

Floating 

Tools

 button, the SMART Board Control Panel opens. 

Pressing the Room Control Interface Button

The installation guide states on page 17 that if you press the Room Control Interface button, the 
room control interface menus appear. However, this functionality is not available if your DT770 is 
connected to a Mac computer. Instead, if you press the Room Control Interface button, an Online 
Help opens.

Customizing Buttons

On page 18, the installation guide includes the steps required to customize the buttons on the 
DT770. These steps are correct for computers using a Windows operating system. However, if 
your DT770 is connected to a Mac computer, use the following method. 

1. Press the 

SMART Board

 icon in the Dock, and press 

Open Control Panel

.

2. Press 

Pen Tray

.

3. Press the large 

Pen Tray

 button on the left side of the dialog.
