Hi all I'm looking for the above position in the Sheffield area. Does anyone have any recommendations for companies to contact. I have 6 years experience in the education sector, mainly primary schools in the Bradford area. My missus has to move for family reasons so I'm just having a look to see what is out there. Cheers

smart units are notorious for overheating in my experience. All the ones I've seen generally start going wrong after 12 months.

For you to have a nosey

I've only experience of the Epson 450wi range of interactive projectors. Never had any issues with them at the schools where they are installed. Nice solid, good looking, easy to use unit. Its worth a look in my honest opinion.

My company deal with TP Matrix for our sanyo warranty repairs........they are not the best. Poor at communication, work takes forever to complete.........I would advise looking beyond them.

My company have installed quite a few of these.......only gripe is the price of replacing the pens if staff lose them.

My company install the NEC M230x range in classrooms now for those schools who cant afford the LED option. They are a brilliant unit as stated by mrwobbly. I would recommend them over Sanyo all day long.

You could try Skype group calling. You can connect up to 10 people at once.....and its free as far as I know. Not sure on image quality through. I'm assuming you will be connecting to the large screens via a laptop/PC??

send me your email address and ill send you the file i have.

Thermal trip switch reset may do the trick......if not it may need sending away for remote. Is it a similar chasis to an xe40??

Turned out to be a bad earth from the VGA cable to the boom arm it runs through

Filters are spotless. Brand new units that have done 10 hrs at the most

The units are not networked

All units tried are brand new and work fine in other locations.

Quick one guys. We have one of the above that has done less than 10 hrs and for no apparent reason keeps shutting down. We have tried 2 projectors of same age, make and model in the same room and the same thing keeps happening. Permanent red power and lamp light on. Any thoughts on causes and solutiuons?? Cheers

Can anyone recommend any training courses in Promethean software.....ie Active inspire, etc

Thanks all for the input. Ive tried everything suggested but......FAIL!!! The board will have to be retired forthwith...... I will keep all your suggestions in mind for any future problems Thanks again

Basically the teacher is attempting to write on the board but the cursor goes haywire.

I have a board that is at least 6 years old and is severely spiking. Ive tried a new PSU, the drivers are up to date, so barring environmental interference Im going down the route of knackered board. Is it worth replacing the electronics box on the back of the board or will the school have to bite the bullet and replace. All suggestions are welcome

Sahara Presentation Systems - Home Page Check these guys out for the Clevertouch LCD Tv's. They are brilliant and are available in various sizes

IPEVO's are pretty good. Do the job really well and dont cost the earth

epson, hitachi, casio led and the new NEC are fab. NEC have a massive throw distance on them.

Needs to go away for repair. had something similar at one of the schools we look after. Hopefully your unit is under warranty.

If you email [email protected] he will speak to you

THere are a lot of pupils from eastern europe and asian background so that could be an idea to discuss with schools.
