HMU (South Conference Room): Smart Room Instructions

South Conference Room is a technology equipped conference room that seats 12 people and is equipped with a flat screen monitor.

Connecting a laptop

1. Turn on the monitor by pressing the power button on the remote.
2. Connect the HDMI or VGA cable that extends from the wall plate to the monitor port on the laptop. An adapter may be necessary if the laptop does not have a VGA or HDMI monitor port.
3. Connect the audio cable to the headphone jack on the laptop if you are using VGA and wish to use the sound system in the room. The HDMI cable carries both audio and video, so only that cable needs to be connected if using HDMI.
4. Connect the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on your laptop if you need to connect to the campus network or the Internet with a wired connection.
5. Power up the laptop.  If the laptop display is not shown, press the input button on the remote and select input HDMI1. Configure the laptop to send output to a second display.

Other devices

1. A Blu-ray DVD player or a document camera can be brought to the room if needed. Please request the use of this equipment when you reserve the room.

Turn off system

1. Press the power button on the remote to turn off the monitor. The screen will go black when the cable is disconnected, but it will still be on.
