The pen always assumes a left click when pressed to the screen. To right
click, push the button on the top left of the monitor and then press the
pen where you want to right click on the screen. The pen will
automatically return to left click after the right click has been used.
The buttons on the top of the monitor in the middle are the 4 pens and the
eraser. These pens can be used to make annotations to your slides or to
write notes in the Notebook.
Power Point:
Once you begin your presentation you will be prompted to decide between
one click or two clicks of the screen to advance a slide. If you choose
the two clicks, you can reverse slides by clicking once and then
immediately clicking to the left of the first click. Or you can use the
transparent tool bar on the lower left of the presentation to advance
slides. If you close this toolbar, the only way to get it back is to open
a new presentation. In the middle of the toolbar there is a menu button
that will allow you to control Power point and other smart functions, End
Show, Auto Save annotations, capture to Notebook, and other power point
functions. Auto save annotations saves the notes you make on your slides
to the power point show, capture to notebook save the single slide to the
smart notebook.
Notebook:
The notebook is a smart feature built into the whole smart package. To
open the notebook, click on “Notebook” on the menu on the bottom right of
the screen. In the notebook, you can hand write notes onto the screen and
convert your handwriting to text or leave it in script. Once you are done
with the notebook, you can save the file as a PDF to share with your
students on the web, or to keep backups for yourself. To save as a PDF,
go to the file menu and select the “Export” option and select PDF as file
type and give the file a name and location to save to. Once you have it
saved, move it to your user folder on the server and then you can post to
the web from your office or open it on your office computer.
The more you use the new equipment and all of its functions, the easier it
will be. I am sure that once you become comfortable with the equipment
and the supporting software you will enjoy using it and see how it can
benefit you and your students.
