Cleaning Your Interactive Screen

SMART Hardware Rear-Projection SMART Board interactive whiteboard, SMART Board for Flat-Panel Displays interactive overlays, Sympodium interactive pen displays and Actalyst interactive digital signage

Overview

This article explains how to clean the surface of your Rear-Projection SMART Board interactive whiteboard, SMART Board for Flat-Panel Displays interactive overlay, Sympodium interactive pen displays or and Actalyst interactive overlay.

Details

To clean the writing surface or screen, use proprietary glass cleaner. Just spray the cleaner onto a soft cloth or paper towel and wipe the screen surface. Avoid spraying the cleaner directly on the screen, since the cleaner may damage components if it runs into the edge of the screen.

Warning 

Do not apply isopropyl alcohol, water or acetone to the back surface of the screen. These fluids could damage the diffusion coating, resulting in a permanent deterioration in display quality. If you do smudge this surface, wipe it carefully with an alcohol-free glass cleaner. Do not spray the cleaner directly onto the back of the screen. Spray the cleaner lightly on a cloth and then gently dab the surface until the marks are removed.

Note 

To remove permanent marker ink from the screen, use a cleaner such as Expo Board Doctor. If you have high-odour dry-wipe markers (not non-scented markers), you can cover the permanent ink with the ink from a dry-wipe marker and then wipe with a soft cloth or paper towel whilst the ink is still wet. If any trace of the original permanent ink remains, spray a cloth with a proprietary glass cleaner or Expo Board cleaner and wipe the area clean.
