SMART Board™ interactive
display frame Pencil Pack
Order Number IDF-3CPen
Your SMART Board™ interactive display frame pencil pack includes three pencils
(red, blue and green) that write and erase digital ink on a flat panel display. When
you touch the writing surface with a pencil, the tip of the pencil creates digital ink
and the back of the pencil erases digital ink. Touch the writing surface to use your
finger as a mouse. Use the SMART Connection Wizard to make sure the pencil’s tip
and eraser are working correctly. For detailed instructions, see the section in the
SMART Board Interactive Display Frame Installation and User’s Guide titled
Using the SMART Connection Wizard to Test Your Pencil.
Inserting Your Pencil Battery
IMPORTANT
Make sure that you install a fresh battery in your pencil when the Low Battery
warning appears. Rechargeable batteries aren’t recommended.
To insert your
pencil battery
1. Grasp the pencil in one hand, and then carefully pull the two sections apart.
2. Insert the included AAA battery or your replacement battery into the battery
compartment, matching the markings on the holder to the markers on the battery.
3. Carefully push the two sections of the pencil together, and then place the pencil
on the interactive display frame’s pencil ledge.
Replacing Your Pencil Nib

Replace the pencil nib when it wears down. If a pencil nib wears down too far, you
might scratch or damage the flat panel display’s anti-glare coating.

CAUTION
Because the pencil directly contacts the flat panel display’s surface, write with light
pressure on the surface. Writing with excessive force can damage the flat panel.
SMART Technologies is not responsible for damage to your flat panel display
incurred by improper use.
TIP
For best results, hold your pencil perpendicular to the writing surface so that your
palm doesn’t block the cameras’ view. As you write, lift your pencil off the flat
panel’s surface so that you don’t create extra lines between strokes.
