UsingUSBMemory
The content of what has been drawn on the sheet surface of the network board can be saved in USB memory.
Later, the saved image can be read into a personal computer and made into a document of the proceedings of
the meeting, or affixed to a document.

UsingUSBMemory
SavingImageFilesonaComputer/DeletingImageFiles
Examples of operations follow for saving the image files in the USB memory device to the hard disk of the per-
sonal computer, and for deleting the folder when the USB memory capacity is full. (There are various methods
that can be used for saving and deleting including the use of Explorer.) See the instruction manual of your per-
sonal computer or the software that you are using for information about using a personal computer.
The name of the folder on the USB memory device is “CB_Image”. Image files are stored in this folder.
By factory setting upon purchase, image files are named “PV-xxx.png” (PNG files), where “xxx” refers to a
3-digit number starting from 001 (ex.: PV-001.png).
When consecutive storing is performed, numbers “-1” or “-2” (“-1”, “-2”, “-3” or “-4” on model N-314) are
added to the end of the file name. (Example: When three screens are stored consecutively - PV-001-1.png,
PV-001-2.png.) When a file format is specified to PDF, consecutive stored files will be merged into one file.
Images can be stored in JPEG, PNG or PDF format, selectable in the network board settings (“CB Setup”). (See
pages E-26.)

When the network board and a computer are connected by USB cable, the network board is recognized as an
external memory device (removable device). Below is the procedure for copying the “CBImage” file from this
device onto the computer.
Images can be stored in JPEG (.jpg), PNG (.png) or PDF (.pdf) format, selectable in the network board settings
(“CB Setup”). (See pages E-26.) The factory default is “PNG”.

There are two ways to make the device settings: using the network board’s operation buttons to make the set-

The description here provides operation using the network board’s buttons.
For using the network board connected to a network, refer to the separate “N-31 Series Network Manual”.

ScanningAdjustment(WhiteCalibration)
If dark lines (horizontal black lines) on a printed out hard copy or image on the screen are generated, you need
to optimally adjust the sensitivity of reading the sheet surface.
If the scanning image does not work due to generation of dark lines, update the program and perform the white
calibration in the following steps.
Preparation:
1. Use the supplied white board cleaner or damp cloth to
clean the 20 cm of width on the left edge of the network
board.
Avoid cleaning the joint part of the sheets. Doing so may cause
incorrect calibration.
20cmorlonger
2. Feed the sheet manually until the half width of cleaned
sheet is covered by the frame of the network board.
Operation
1. Make sure that the network board’s power is turned on.
(Display on the display window is “01”.)
2. Press the Scroll/Stop button (on the left) while pressing and holding
the On/Standby button.
3. Release the buttons.
The display “CAL” will be changed.
* “CA” → “AL” → “L” in this order
4. Press the Save button.
The display on the display window starts rotating and adjusting automati-
cally.
5. When the display on the display window is flashing “AA”, press the
On/Standby button.
The display on the display window returns to “01”, indicating that the
reading adjustment is completed.
