Cleaning your capture board
CAUTION
l
Disconnect your capture board from power before cleaning it.
l
Do not spray cleaner directly onto the capture board’s writing surface, perimeter reflective
tape or sensors.
Ink left on the capture board’s writing surface for a long period of time might be harder to clean off.
To remove dry erase ink residue, follow the instructions below.
To clean your capture board
1. Spray a small amount of water or cleaner onto a clean lint-free cloth or paper towel.
IMPORTANT
Acceptable cleaners include water, dry eraser cleaners, Windex glass cleaner and isopropyl
alcohol.
2. Clean the capture board’s surface.
Cleaning the reflective bezels and corner sensors
CAUTION
Disconnect your capture board from power before cleaning it.
TIP
SMART recommends cleaning the corner sensors last in case the previous cleaning instructions
leave debris on the sensors.
The capture board uses digital sensors and reflective tape on the perimeter of the writing surface
to digitally capture your writing. Excessive buildup of dust or dry erase residue on the reflective
tape surface and sensors can impair performance. The bottom reflective bezel and corner sensors
are most likely to collect excessive dust and dry erase ink residue over time.
To clean the reflective bezels and corner sensors—Method 1
Carefully vacuum the areas where you notice a buildup of excessive dust and dry erase
residue.
