Interwrite DualBoardTM
Overview
The Interwrite DualBoard is central to the Interactive Classroom. Students
can work side-by-side at the DualBoard, solving problems, writing sentences,
or drawing pictures. Imagine the fun you can have creating competitions
that will engage all your students. And, the Interwrite DualBoard can take it;
this durable electronic whiteboard features eInstruction’s patented electro-
magnetic technology. When you combine your Interwrite DualBoard with
Interwrite Pads, or the new Interwrite Mobi™, you have created an interac-
tive, collaborative learning environment that is unsurpassed.
You will see in this Getting Started guide how versatile your Interwrite Dual-
Board installation can be, accommodating every type of presentation envi-
ronment. Every step of the setup and installation process for each possible
configuration is described in these pages. In addition, a variety of accessories
are described. Some of the Interwrite DualBoard accessories, such as an
electronic pen, are required; others are optional. In any case, we will show
how they can be used to uniquely tailor your interactive environment to
your requirements.
Once set up, your Interwrite DualBoard must be able to communicate
with your computer, either by means of a cable connection (serial or USB),
or wirelessly, using the RFCOM and Workspace RF Hub. The eInstruction
Device Manager, installed during the Workspace installation, manages the
communication link between your Interwrite DualBoard, Interwrite Pads and
Interwrite Mobi, controls their operation, and provides a robust set of tools
to achieve the interactive experience.
You will use Workspace tools to calibrate your Interwrite DualBoard. Calibra-
tion ensures that the cursor on the projected image is properly aligned with
the tip of the electronic Interwrite Pen on the whiteboard’s surface.
The Workspace software provides a diversity of tools and operational modes
that enhance the interactive experience. Mouse Mode allows you to use
your Interwrite Pen as a mouse to run applications and access the Internet.
Annotate Over Desktop Mode makes it possible to run videos, movies,
TV shows and Flash applications and annotate them while they run. Lesson
Mode makes the full set of Workspace tools available to create lessons and
presentations and annotate the pages of those lessons and presentations.
When you are presenting a PowerPoint slide show, a Word document, or an
Excel spreadsheet, you can switch into Office Mode and save your annota-
tions in the native file.

Installation Overview
This section describes what you will be doing and the order in which you will
be doing it, to facilitate the installation of your Interwrite DualBoard and its
preparation for use.
1. Unpack Your Interwrite DualBoard
Open the shipping box and remove the Accessory Box. Leave the Interwrite
DualBoard in the box until you are ready to mount it.
In the Accessories section of this guide, you will see that a variety of Inter-
write DualBoard accessories are available to help you create the interactive
environment that best suits your requirements. Following is a basic list of the
Interwrite accessories likely to be included with your Interwrite DualBoard:

Getting Started Interwrite DualBoardTM
The Cable Guides are used to manage and guide dangling cables. The
optional Mounting Clips will be used only when you are mounting your
Interwrite DualBoard on the wall. Their installation is described in the Acces-
sories section on page 30.
Your Interwrite DualBoard ships with one Wall Mounting Bracket. The
Mounting Bracket is installed on the wall. The DualBoard’s frame is designed
to interlock with and hang from the Wall Mounting Bracket.
You will need an electronic Interwrite Pen to use with your Interwrite Dual-
Board. You can choose from between the Interactive Pen and the recharge-
able Interactive Pen. The optional Interwrite Interactive Pen Charging
Station plugs into the board and attaches to its frame to keep the recharged
Interactive Pens close at hand. It can alternatively be mounted on the wall,
although it should be close enough to the Interwrite DualBoard’s controller
so it can be plugged into the Power Connector on the top of the controller
housing. (The Pen Charging Station can be plugged directly into a wall sock-
et or power strip. The power cable with a standard power plug for such an
installation is sold separately.) If you are mounting your Interwrite DualBoard
on the wall and you are using a Pen Charging Station, you should attach it to
the Interwrite DualBoard before you mount the board.
The Interwrite Workspace CD contains the Workspace software. Interwrite
Workspace must be installed on your computer before you can complete
the installation of your Interwrite DualBoard.

2. Mount Your Interwrite DualBoard
Will this be a wall mount, or a floor stand mount? If you are mounting your
Interwrite DualBoard on a floor stand, you need to assemble the floor stand
first. The instructions for assembling your floor stand are included in the floor
stand shipping box. In addition, instructions for assembling your floor stand
can be found on page 32 in this guide.
The type of mount will also determine which Mounting Brackets, if any, you
will attach to the back of the Interwrite DualBoard. For a floor stand mount,
two Mounting Brackets are attached to the back of the Interwrite DualBoard
with supplied Phillips screws. These Mounting Brackets ship with the floor
stand.
For a wall mount, the Interwrite DualBoard requires only one Mounting
Bracket, which is attached to the wall. The frame of the Interwrite DualBoard
is designed to overlap the Mounting Bracket on the wall. The hardware for
attaching the Mounting Bracket to the wall is not included. You will supply
the hardware that is appropriate to the type of wall on which the Interwrite
DualBoard is being mounted.
WALL MOUNT
If you purchased the Interactive Pen Charging Station and/or the optional
Pen Tray accessory, install them before you hang the Interwrite DualBoard
on the Wall Mounting Bracket. If you plan to use the optional Mounting
Clips (page 30) to stabilize your wall-mounted board, install them after you
have mounted your Interwrite DualBoard on the wall.
FLOOR STAND MOUNT
After you assemble the floor stand, you will attach the two Mounting Brack-
ets to the back of the Interwrite DualBoard using the Phillips screws pro-
vided. It requires two people, one at each end of the Interwrite DualBoard,
to mount it on the floor stand. It is attached using the Knob Screws provided.
You can attach the optional Pen Tray accessory and/or the Pen Charging Sta-
tion after the Interwrite DualBoard is mounted on the floor stand.

3. Install the Interwrite Workspace Software
4. Connect Your Interwrite DualBoard
Your Interwrite DualBoard must be able to communicate with the Interwrite
Workspace software just installed on your computer. This communication
link is established either by means of a physical cable (USB or serial) con-
nection, or wirelessly between the two RF communication modules—one
connected to the Interwrite DualBoard (RFCOM) and one connected to the
computer (Workspace RF Hub). The computer will automatically find the
Interwrite DualBoard, whether it is connected to it by a cable, or wirelessly
using the RFCOM and RF Hub.
5. Connect the Video Projector
6. Prepare the Electronic Interwrite Pens and
Install the Pen Charging Station
The Interactive Pen comes with its battery installed, so it is ready to use. In-
structions for replacing the battery in the Interactive Pen is on page 29. After
the optional Pen Charging Station is installed on the Interwrite DualBoard,
the rechargeable Interactive Pens must be charged before they can be used.
Instructions for attaching the Pen Charging Station to the Interwrite Dual-
Board are on page 27.
7. Calibrate Your Interwrite DualBoard
Before you begin using it, your Interwrite DualBoard needs to be calibrated
to ensure that the tip of the electronic Interwrite Pen is aligned with the
cursor on the projected image. Any time the Interwrite DualBoard or video
projector is moved, the Interwrite DualBoard must be re-calibrated.
