22 | CHAPTER 4 – USING AND MAINTAINING YOUR SMART BOARD INTERACTIVE 
WHITEBOARD
Using the pen tray
In addition to providing a convenient place to hold the pens and the eraser, the pen 
tray on your SMART Board X800 series interactive whiteboard has several controls, 
sensors and indicators.
Pen tray buttons
In the center of the pen tray, 
there are six buttons. The 
middle four change the color 
of digital ink for the two pen 
tools. 
The buttons on either side of 
the pen color buttons default 
to the on-screen keyboard 
(left button) and right-click 
(right button) functions. 
You can customize the 
buttons using SMART Tools 
to provide several other 
functions, including printing, 
changing pages, launching 
applications and capturing the screen.
Pressing the Keyboard and Right-click buttons simultaneously starts the orientation 
process.
