What’s in the Box Congratulations on your purchase of the IS-01 Interactive Whiteboard System. After a few simple steps, your system will be calibrated and ready to use.
Two Ways to Use It Use the Interactive Pen as a Computer Cursor The Interactive Pen can behave like a mouse, transforming any surface into a touchscreen. Use the Pen to intuitively perform the actions you’d normally use your mouse to perform. Note: The Interactive Pen can perform normal mouse actions including click, double click, and drag. However, some actions are not executable with the Pen, such as hovering.
How It Works IS-01 is made up of two devices: the Sensor Cam and the Interactive Pen. The Sensor Cam detects the physical location of the Pen and sends this information to your computer, which then translates the Pen’s motion into cursor motion. Wherever you move the Pen, the computer will move its cursor in real time. You can also perform mouse clicks and drags with the Pen.
Get to Know It Contact Sensitive Tip USB Port Connect USB here. Send signals for left, right, and double mouse clicks. Brief contact performs a left click while pressing in and holding for 2 seconds or longer performs a right click. Power switch Turn the unit on and off. LED indicator Lights up when powered up and connected. Lens IPEVO button This is another way to perform mouse clicks. Press for a left click, or press and hold for 2 seconds or longer for a right click.
Installing It 1. Software & Driver Installation PC: Insert the CD-ROM into your computer and follow the onscreen prompts to complete the installation. Mac: • Insert the CD-ROM into your computer. • Double-click the “IPEVO IS-01.DMG” file. A folder named “IPEVO IS-01” will appear. • Drag the IPEVO IS-01 folder into the Application folder to complete the installation. 2. Positioning and Connecting the Sensor Cam Proper position of the Sensor Cam is important for optimum operation.
Installing It (cont’d) • The Sensor Cam is best placed opposite the center of the screen at a straight-on angle. However, a straight-on angle is not required for acceptable operation, and the Sensor Cam may be placed at another angle if necessary. Please refer to the diagram below for placement zones according to accuracy quality: Sensor Cam Placement Zone As you can see: • Accuracy is better when the Sensor Cam is closer to the center. • Accuracy decreases as the angle increases.
A. Placing on the desktop Use a flat, smooth desktop surface. Make sure nothing is blocking the Sensor Cam’s path to the screen surface. Adjust the knob to angle the Sensor Cam directly at the center of the screen surface. B. Using an upside-down ceiling mount IS-01 can be mounted upside-down onto the ceiling or ceiling-mounted projector. To do so: 1. Twist the Sensor Cam base onto the screw on the ceiling mount until tight. Turn the starshaped knob near the base for additional angle adjustment. 2.
Installing It (cont’d) 3. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of grit. Remove the sticker from the bottom of the ceiling mount, and affix the ceiling mount firmly onto the mounting surface. Note: The sticker of Ceiling Mount is extremely adhesive and should only be applied once. The Sensor Cam can be detached without removing the Ceiling Mount. Simply unscrew the Sensor Cam from the Ceiling Mount. C. Using a tripod The Sensor Cam comes with a built-in tripod mount.
4. Connecting to the Computer Once you’ve placed and secured the Sensor Cam, connect it to your computer using the included USB cable. The Sensor Cam LED indicator will light up once connected. 5. Readying the Interactive Pen Remove the battery cover from the Interactive Pen and insert 2 AAA batteries. Replace the cover. Turn on the pen when ready to use.
Installing It (cont’d) 6. Calibration IS-01 must be calibrated before use to ensure accurate operation. This process only takes a couple of steps. The calibration application appears the first time the Sensor Cam is connected to the computer. Use the Interactive Pen and follow the instructions on screen (and reprinted below) to complete the calibration.
Step 2: Accuracy Check With the Pen, tap the center of each red crosshair that appears. Four crosshairs will appear in total. You MUST tap all four in turn. Failing to do so may impair Pen accuracy. Step 3: Calibration Completed After the process you will be returned to your desktop and your IS-01 will be ready for use. Sensor Cam Diagnosis If you find the pen trace dithering or inaccurate after the initial calibration, your Sensor Cam may need further adjustment.
Using It Controlling cursor movement Simply move the pen in front of the screen area, being careful not to block the Pen’s path to the Sensor Cam with your body. The mouse cursor will follow the Pen’s movement in real time. Good Bad Controlling the computer and applications Mouse clicks can be performed both within the operating system and in a wide variety of software applications. To do so, use either of two methods: Touch the contact-sensitive Pen tip onto the screen surface. Press the green button.
Using It (cont’d) Adding reach with the Extension Wand (Optional Accessory) When using a larger or taller screen, attach the Extension Wand Accessory to the Interactive Pen to help reach all areas of the screen. The 16.5” (420 mm) Extension Wand for Interactive Pen is available at www.ipevo.com 25 Installing the Extension Wand Simply push the Extension Wand into the bottom of the Interactive Pen till you hear a click.

FAQ How do I quickly determine a good working distance between the screen and Sensor? Normally, the projector is a good location to place the Sensor. If you are using a short-throw projector, however, please refer to pages 5 and 6 for the recommended Sensor distance guidelines. Can I use rechargeable AAA batteries for the Interactive Pen? Yes. Rechargeable alkaline batteries are recommended. Can I use IS-01 with my own software instead of IPEVO Annotator? Yes.
Troubleshooting When I tap on the corners during calibration, the points don’t fall within the center white box. Move the Sensor closer to the area where the corresponding points do not appear. Or, move the Sensor further away from the screen. Run the calibration program again. The cursor on my screen is jumping around abnormally and I am not able to control it. Remove any strong light source or infrared equipment close to the Sensor, as these may interfere with the Sensor.
