Flowchart 4: Ready Light Flashing Green
NOTES
This is the normal mouse mode state when SMART product drivers aren’t
installed on your computer.
This mode might be desirable for occasional or guest users who don’t require the
use of SMART Board Tools or pen tray functions.
Windows 98 and 98SE operating systems require that you install the HID drivers
from the Windows installation CD. Also, on Windows 98 and 98SE, right-click isn’t
supported. The Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems include the
full HID mouse mode.
Remember that you might not want to use SMART Board
Tools or the pen tray pens. See the previous notes.
Install SMART product drivers from the CD included with your
interactive whiteboard, or download them from
www.smarttech.com/support/
.
Use the Windows Control Panel or the Mac Activity Monitor
to ensure that SMART Board Service is running.
The Ready light should now be steady green, and your
interactive whiteboard should operate normally.
