Techy Tuesdays: eBeam Edge Doesn’t Calibrate
Posted September 21st, 2010 by melissa
Welcome to a new weekly post called Techy Tuesdays. Once a week iloveebeam will share tips, tricks and techy tidbits to help you become a successful eBeam user. This week our topic is how to troubleshoot what is wrong when your eBeam Edge USB doesn’t calibrate. When you pull up your calibration screen, and you tap the center of the first red target with your stylus and nothing happens, here are the first four things you need to check:
1. Is my eBeam Edge USB glowing green on the front of the receiver? The green light indicates the unit is getting power. No light -> call tech support.
2. Check the position of the eBeam Edge on the whiteboard. Make sure the receiver is at least one inch away from the projected image.
3. Check the AAA battery in your stylus. When you touch the tip of the stylus and press down, you should hear a slight buzzing sound. No buzzing sound -> replace battery.
4. Turn off the lights before you calibrate. Occasionally overhead fluorescent lighting can interfere with the infrared technology in the eBeam.
——If you have gone through these steps and your eBeam Edge is still not calibrating, continue with these next steps—–
5. Restart your computer. Rebooting your computer will resolve 99% of all eBeam technical issues.
6. Try another USB port on your computer. Try a port that you use regularly and know is working correctly.
7. Reinstall the eBeam software. Click HERE to download the most current eBeam software.
8. Try another computer. Take your eBeam Edge USB and your USB cable and connect to a different computer.
Once you have completed these eight troubleshooting steps and are still not able to calibrate, please call tech support with your results.

The Edge
Posted September 8th, 2009 by melissa
This summer, Luidia the manufacturer of eBeam, launched the new eBeam Edge which is the world’s smallest interactive whiteboard solution. Weighing less than 4 oz., the eBeam Edge can be placed on any “edge” of the board (the left edge works the best). The new sleek design of the eBeam is very impressive and since the new receiver is white, it virtually blends right into the whiteboard. The new hardware and firmware has been upgraded to allow for no lag time between pen and pixel. There is a new calibration button built-in to the eBeam receiver. Teachers can instantly pull up the calibration screen with just a touch of the button without having to use the eBeam toolbar. The Edge brags the largest active area in the market with a 5′ x 9′ projected image (123″ diagonal).
The Edge has integrated receiver magnets which allow the user to pop the eBeam on and off of a magnetic board as needed. If you are using a non-magnetic whiteboard, the included stainless steel mounting plates with 3M double sided sticky tape allow for a secure attachment of the eBeam to the dry-erase surface. The eBeam Edge comes with a new projection stylus! The new stylus is a slimmer design that is more ergonomic for the every-day eBeam user. It still has 3 buttons: left click, right click and eBeam toolbar access. The tip of the new stylus is more pointed than the rounded tip of the eBeam System 3. The Edge Stylus uses 1 AAA battery while the System 3 stylus uses 1 AA battery. While the overall package price of the Edge is higher than the System 3, you’ll be glad to know the replacement price of the new stylus is $44.95 as compared to the $134.95 of the System 3.
The Edge works with the new Interact 2.2.2 and Capture 2.2.2 software for PC and works with the Interact 1.3.1 for Mac. The Capture feature for Mac will be coming soon for the Edge! The Edge is available in USB only; a Bluetooth version will be available closer to the end of the year.
