For best presentation alignment, SMART recommends that you mount your interactive whiteboard system in a location that is central to your audience’s viewing direction.
Vertical keystone errors can occur when you mount the Unifi 45 projector and the SMART Board 600 series interactive whiteboard on an uneven surface, or on a wall that has obstructions such as a whiteboard or aluminum rails.
