Interwrite Mobi™
About This Guide
This Getting Started guide describes how to set up your Interwrite Mobi and
Interwrite Pen II, install the Interwrite Workspace software, and establish a
communication connection with your PC or your Mac. It ends with an over-
view of the Interwrite Workspace software.

Product Overview
The Interwrite Mobi is a tablet system featuring the patented digitizer and
pen-input technology. Used with the Interwrite Workspace software on a PC
or a Mac, the Mobi acts as an input device allowing you to control the com-
puter so you can run applications, open and edit files, and annotate screen
images and presentation files from anywhere in the room. When used with
an Interwrite DualBoard, the Mobi provides the ultimate multi-input collab-
orative system for the interactive class room or the interactive meeting room.

Know What I Know (KWIK) Screen

The KWIK Screen displays Student
Response System information that can
be used by the instructor for assessment
and evaluation purposes. It is a color
backlit LCD display that interacts with
the computer to display the assessment
data as it is acquired during a session.
The type of data displayed is dependent
on the Student Response System being
used. If one is not installed, the LCD
screen will be blank but will show the
Mobi Status.

Interwrite Mobi Learner

The Interwrite Mobi Learner screen
identifies the unit and displays various
status indicators. It informs the user of
battery life, if the pen is in prox, if the
Learner is in Mouse Mode, and when
the unit is charging.

 2 Interwrite Mobi™ Getting Started

Radio Frequency Technology

The Interwrite Mobi system uses Radio Frequency (RF) wireless technolo-
gy to establish communication between the Tablet and the computer. The
Mobi comes with the RF module built into the Tablet, so the only installa-
tion required is the Workspace RF USB Hub on the computer.

The Interwrite Pen II

The electronic Interwrite Pen II,
when positioned just above (in prox
of) or touching the surface of a charged,
powered-on, connected Tablet, controls the
movements of the mouse on the computer. The
Pen becomes a writing and drawing instrument
when one of the many Workspace Annotation Tools is
selected from the projected Toolbar. When in Annotation
Mode, a user can make notes on a PowerPoint Slide Show,
highlight areas of interest on a spreadsheet, or edit a document
using a wide range of pen attributes.

Workspace Software
The operation of your Mobi is facilitated by the Interwrite Workspace soft-
ware. The software is installed as part of the process of establishing commu-
nication between the Mobi and the computer and is covered in this guide.
The Workspace software has four operational modes: Lesson Mode, Office
Mode (Windows only), Annotate Over Desktop Mode, and Mouse Mode.
An Interwrite Mobi, acting as an input device to the computer, remotely
controls the computer from anywhere in the room. When the Interwrite
DualBoard and a video projector are added, the computer’s desktop image
projects onto the Interwrite DualBoard’s surface, and the board communi-
cates as an input device to the computer.
In this environment, both the person at the Interwrite DualBoard and users
with Tablets seated around the room can interact with the presentation.

 6 Interwrite Mobi™ Getting Started

The first thing you should do when you unpack your new Inter-
write Mobi and Interwrite Pen II is charge them.

Charging the Interwrite Mobi and Pen

Before you use your Interwrite Mobi and Interwrite Pen II for the first time,
they should be charged for about 12 hours. Whenever the Tablet battery is
low and needs to be recharged, the Tablet Battery Status Icon will display on
the screen as an empty battery.
1 Place the Interwrite Pen II in the Pen Slot.
2 Connect the Mini USB Connector to the Mini USB Port at the top of the
Tablet.
3 Plug the other end of the cord into a USB port on your computer or into a
USB hub.
The Interwrite Mobi can be used while it is charging.
4 When the Tablet and Pen are charged and the Battery Status display
indicates that it is charged, unplug the Charger from the Interwrite Mobi.
5 Press the Power Button to turn on the charged Interwrite Mobi.
The buttons and status indicators are described in more detail in the Operat-
ing the Interwrite Mobi section.

The Interwrite Pen II is charged only when it is placed in the Pen

Slot in the Tablet, and only when the Tablet is being charged. A Pen
charge lasts over 40 hours. You should always charge the Pen when
the Tablet is being charged.

The optional Interwrite Mobi Dock can charge up to three Mobis

at one time. Visit our Web site at [Link] for more
information about the Mobi Dock.

Getting Started with Interwrite

Workspace
The purpose of this document is to give you a feel for the Interwrite system
by showing you how to select and use a tool in Lesson Mode. The Annota-
tion Tools of Lesson Mode consist of freehand tools, text tools and draw-
ing tools. Of the freehand tools, the Pen tool is the most frequently used
Interwrite Workspace Tool. The following pages describe how to select and
configure the Pen tool.
The Interwrite system is at the heart of a successful interactive collaboration,
whether it is in a classroom of fourth graders studying world geography, or in
a boardroom of corporate executives brainstorming a new product launch.
All the tools you will need to stimulate inspiration, connection and participa-
tion can be found in the Interwrite Workspace software. Here’s a quick look
at the Workspace basics to get you started.

Workspace Modes
Interwrite Workspace is run in one of four operational modes, Lesson Mode,
Office Mode (Windows only), Annotate Over Desktop Mode, and Mouse
Mode.
Workspace Tools are categorized as Annotation Tools, Editing Tools, Page
Tools, Presentation Tools, Multimedia Tools, Navigation Tools, File Manage-
ment Tools, and Setup Tools. The Interwrite Workspace Help file describes
all of these tools in detail and can be accessed from the Workspace Menu.
Lesson
Lesson Mode makes the full set of Workspace tools available to create
lessons and presentations and to annotate the pages of those lessons and
presentations.
Office
Office Mode makes it possible to interact directly with the native files of the
Microsoft Office suite of products, PowerPoint, Word and Excel.
Annotate Over Desktop Mode
Annotate Over Desktop Mode allows you to annotate over running videos,
movies, TV shows, and Flash applications.
Mouse Mode
Mouse Mode allows you to use your Interwrite Pen II as a mouse to run ap-
plications and access the Internet.

Presentation Files
The presentation file is made up of your annotated pages. The Page Creation
and Capture tools are used to create the pages in the presentation file and
the Annotation Tools are used to create the annotations. The presentation
file is automatically saved as a .GWB file.
As soon as you select an Annotation Tool, an untitled presentation file is cre-
ated. Unless you give the file a name, it is automatically saved using today’s
date as the filename. (Multiple files created today have 01, 02, 03, etc., ap-
pended to the date name.)
An existing presentation file can be opened, its pages can be sorted, annota-
tions can be added to the existing pages, and new pages can be added to
the file. Your presentation will determine how each presentation file evolves.
For example, you can prepare a presentation file with blank maps for a geog-
raphy lesson. Or, you can capture and annotate each of the monthly earn-
ings spreadsheets as you review the past fiscal year during a budget meeting.
Or, you can run a PowerPoint Slide Show in Office Mode (Windows only),
where annotations added to the slides are saved in the native file.
Building the Presentation File
You can build your presentation file during your presentation, or you can
pre-build it, including the screen captures, images, graphs and text pages you
want to present. However you choose to do it, the process is the same.
Use the Page Creation Tools to add a blank, gridded, calendar, gradient, or
background image page. By default, Interwrite Workspace is in Autosave
mode, so your annotated pages are automatically saved as you build your
presentation file.
By default, the Capture tool is set to always capture the screen. When you
are in Mouse Mode and you select an Annotation Tool, the Pen tool, for
example, the image of your desktop is captured as a page in the Lesson Win-
dow. You can change the Capture setting by selecting the Preferences option
from the Workspace Menu. Click on the New Page Setup tab to display the
Capture options.
Click the Save tool to save the file using the default filename (today’s date),
or a name you type on the pop-up Onscreen Keyboard.

 24 Interwrite Mobi™ Getting Started

Distributing Presentation Files

The Interwrite Workspace presentation files you create can be printed for
local distribution, or emailed to anyone, anywhere.
Use the Page Sorter tool to review the presentation file. The pages in the
presentation file can be sorted, moved, duplicated, merged, and deleted
using the Page Sorter tool. When the file pages have been arranged to your
satisfaction, you can use Page Sorter’s export option to export it to one of
a number of file formats, or you can close Page Sorter and select an option
from the Workspace File Menu.
The native file format of saved presentation files has the .GWB extension.
GWB files can be read on any computer on which Interwrite Workspace is
installed. For general distribution, we recommend exporting the presentation
file to the PDF format using the Export PDF File tool located in the Toolbox,
or by selecting the the Export PDF File option from the Workspace File
Menu.
Now everyone can stay in the information loop, whether they were able to
attend the presentation or not.

What are Response and CPS?

Interwrite Response and the Classroom Performance System (CPS) are Audi-
ence Response Systems, comprehensive response systems for electronically
testing, polling, and surveying a group of people, typically students. They can
be used in conjunction with Interwrite Workspace to take a survey of the
audience response to the presentation, or to test the level of comprehension
after a lesson presentation, for example. Learn more about Response and
CPS by visiting our Web site.
