  1. Currently our teachers can lock down a smart board with a pin or pattern. That becomes a problem when I as a tech need to go look at a board and the teacher is nowhere to be found to unlock the board.

    There should be a way to unlock the board from the portal or allow someone to log out the person that is currently logged in so that they can log in behind them.

    Allowing anyone to log someone out (much like on a PC) would also fix the issue that occurs when a substitute comes in but the…

  2. Hi. I would suggest having default input source selection (Example HDMI 1) when display is powered on the MX series V5.
    Also noticed that when no input source is available, the display goes to Android screen (Home screen).
    It would be better to have a priority input feature, such in case there is an HDMI source connected the display switches to connected HDMI port from Android back.
    We have more than 60 displays installed, and it becomes tedious for the users having to switch sources.

  4. Would be nice to be able to install External Widgets.
    Even nicer if they could be installed via Smart Remote Management.

  5. The settings on our boards are secured with a PIN code. If this PIN code is leaked, we currently have to manually update the PIN on each board, which is not practical with more than 40 boards. Could this be implemented in the admin portal so that it can be managed centrally?

  6. Updates are currently being sent directly to the Smarttech boards. As a result, teachers receive unexpected pop-up notifications asking whether the update can be installed. This is not ideal when they are in front of a full classroom. It would be preferable if we could manage this from the admin portal. Ideally, we would like the ability to first install the updates on a few devices as a test. If everything works well, we could then schedule the updates for all devices at a convenient time.

  7. A wireless option to bypass the usb cable for touch gestures. Either utilizing bluetooth or a usb dongle similar to those used by wireless keyboards/mice. This would help with retrofit cable running issues and too many extensions for long runs.

  8. Volume control buttons on front control panel are defaulting to notification sound. It would be nice if those would automatically control media volume or at least if we could have the option of setting the default to personal preference.

  9. Connect a complete video conferencing system like the Kandao Meeting Ultra to the HDMI OUT of the new Google EDLA monitors (V5e RX). In order to use the Smart monitor whiteboard app during a video conference initiated by the Kandao Meeting Ultra system (it is equipped with an HDMI IN 2.0 port).
    Now the display of the Kandao Meeting Ultra remains black.
    The only way to use it correctly is by using the HDMI OUT port of the OPS Smart.

  10. We have 150 MX boards (66% V5), where it would be of benefit of us to manage the board's system update settings via the Remote Management system.

    Our preferred method of updating the boards would be to test an update on a few boards before allowing the update to roll out to the rest of our boards.

    Rather than visit each board, we would like to be able to configure these settings via policies in Smart Remote Management.

  11. Ability to lock the buttons so that students can not play with them.
    OR
    A cover to hide the buttons.
    OR
    Move the buttons to the side of the screen: top-right and top-left.
    It will stop little fingers from pressing buttons that they should not be able to reach

  13. MX V5 in use in meeting room scenarios often have peripherals attached that need to utilize HDMI-CEC, Default input or Wake on source.

    One very relevant scenario is Microsoft Teams Rooms Devices. These control the display based on room occupancy using HDMI-CEC & wake on source. The default input option would be very useful, so make the MTR device the primary input. Users can then switch to iQ when needed..

  16. We have discovered that students have found out how to turn off the Pin needed and authorization needed to cast to the boards in the settings on the board. Since they can turn this off they can randomly cast to the boards with their phones and display whatever they like. There is also no way to lock the settings that we have found to keep them from doing this.

    I have also learned that the Smart Remote Management can't control the screen share access. This has turned into a huge liability that we can't control.

  17. Max volume limit for the Smart board please. Perhaps an accessibility setting on the board. We have certain students that get music as reward/leisure and they try to turn the volume all the way up. When the sound then gets turned down to an acceptable level it can result in disruptive negative behaviors. Having these boards in a special needs environment makes this an essential feature. Thank you!

  18. Lumio should have option to insert spinner, dice, and other interactive tools. You can use it in Smart Notebook, but not in Lumio.

  19. Since Chromebook users can't install SMART Drivers, this inking feature on freeze mode is a must. With MX-V3 and V4, this feature is loved by teachers but with V5, this feature is no longer available.

  20. Please contact Google to enable the flag "Enable/disable touchscreen calibration option in material design settings" in the stable version of Chrome OS. This allows Smart Boards to work with Chrome OS by allowing touch input to apply to the correct display without having screen mirroring be on at all times, which is very impractical. Many schools and businesses would benefit from this as they cannot use flags due to security and privacy concerns. Because of not having this flag, Smart Boards become used primarily as non-interactive displays. This leads to schools abandoning them altogether. This feature has been a flag…
