CHAPTER 4 – USING AND MAINTAINING YOUR SMART BOARD INTERACTIVE 
WHITEBOARD

The Ready Light

You can see the Ready light in the lower-right corner of your interactive whiteboard’s 
frame. The Ready light indicates the controller module’s operating states.

The following table shows the Ready light’s normal states. If the indicator’s behavior 
doesn’t match a state listed here, refer to Troubleshooting Using the Ready Light 
starting on page 41.

Solid red

Your interactive whiteboard is receiving power from 
the USB cable or an optional expansion module’s 
power adapter, but your interactive whiteboard isn’t 
communicating with a computer.

Solid green

Your interactive whiteboard is receiving power and 
is communicating successfully with SMART Product 
Drivers.

Flashing green

Your interactive whiteboard is receiving power and 
is communicating successfully with the USB HID 
driver of your computer’s operating system.

NOTE
In HID mode, interactive whiteboard tools such 
as the pens and the eraser don’t work, but you 
can move the mouse pointer and perform 
mouse functions by touching the interactive 
screen. The Right-Click button on the pen tray 
might work, depending on the version of 
Windows operating system you’re using. 
Neither the Keyboard nor the Help button will 
work.

Flashing or solid amber

The controller module is in a service mode or has 
detected a software error. Refer to Troubleshooting 
Using the Ready Light on page 41.
