2. Calibrate the software by clicking the ‘Tools’ menu and select ‘Calibrate Capture Area’.
3. Follow the screens, select the location of the capture device on the white board, then use the special markers to tap the far corners when prompted and click ‘Finish’ when done.
4. After calibration is finished, you may start using the special whiteboard markers to draw on the board.
