Step 3: Calibrating the ActivBoard

 

1. Once the computer has restarted, you will prompted to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete in order to log onto the computer.

________________________________________________

2. Before logging on, the ActivBoard must be calibrated in order for the ActivPen to work properly.  To do this you will need the ActivPen and the calibrate button in the upper left hand corner of the ActivBoard. This button has the ActivInspire flame logo on it and has a purple light coming from it.

________________________________________________

3. Hold the tip of the ActivePen directly over the calibrate button. Once the board recognizes the ActivPen, the button emits a blue light rather than a purple one.  Continue to hold the ActivPen over the button until the following screen appears:

4. Using the ActivPen, click anywhere on the surface of the ActivBoard to begin.

________________________________________________

5. After you click on the surface, a crosshair will appear on the screen in the upper left hand corner. 

________________________________________________

6.  Use the ActivPen to click the cross-hair, and another cross-hair will appear in another location on the screen.  

________________________________________________

7.  Click the next cross-hair that appears, and the cross-hairs will continue to appear clockwise around the ActivBoard until you have clicked each one.  

  

________________________________________________

8.  Once you have clicked all eight cross-hairs that appear, the login screen will appear again. The ActivBoard is now calibrated and the AcitivPen will function properly.
