Can I connect a keyboard or mouse to TOMi8?

How many students can connect to TOMi8?
• TOMi8 LT version: up to 32 devices.
• TOMi8 STD version: up to 60 devices.
This allows the entire class to access the content from their phones, tablets, or computers.
Can I use TOMi8 without internet?
Yes, TOMi8 includes tools like Kolibri to access offline educational libraries. It also has preloaded content such as Canva resources for teachers, so you can continue teaching even without a connection.
What operating system does TOMi8 use?
TOMi8 runs on Android, which makes it compatible with a wide variety of educational apps available on Google Play.
What type of projector or TV is compatible with TOMi8?
Any projector or TV with an HDMI input is compatible. No specific models are required.
Does TOMi8 have a warranty?
Yes, it usually comes with a 1-year limited warranty for the device against factory defects, and a 3-month warranty for accessories.
Can I play videos or presentations on TOMi8?
Yes, you can open video files or presentations stored on TOMi’s memory, a USB drive, or through compatible apps.
Do I need to calibrate every time I use it?
Yes, calibration must be done each time you turn on TOMi8 or move it to a different location. The process is automatic, but it’s important not to move the device once it’s calibrated, since repositioning affects accuracy.
Why isn’t the optical pen working?
There may be several reasons:
• First, check that TOMi8 is properly calibrated and hasn’t been moved afterward.
• If calibration is correct, the issue may be low batteries. Replace them with new ones and ensure they’re placed correctly.
