Plug your computer into the USB-C cable at the instructor station to project in the room. 

Tap the Crestron touch panel on the podium to select the input to display on the projector screen.

The USB-C cable is the only one needed to control this room and to access the in-room cameras and microphones. If the Wireless input is selected, no cable is required to connect the laptop to the projector, simply follow the on-screen instructions to share content in the room. However, this option does not include access to the camera or microphones; to utilize those devices, the USB-C cable must be connected to the laptop.

If you have the USB-C cable connected to your computer and are unable to project in the room, the computer is likely missing a necessary driver to utilize the technology in the room. For instructions to install that driver, go to the DisplayLink Installation Knowledge Base article for assistance.

To Adjust the In-Room Cameras:

Tap the Cameras button in the top right corner of the touch-panel to access the in-room camera controls. This is where you can zoom in or out. You can also turn on or off the camera tracking feature for the Instructor or Audience camera. The tracking feature on these cameras is activated by motion sensing, and is not sound-activated.

To Adjust the In-Room Microphones:

Tap the Microphone button in the top right corner of the touch-panel to access the in-room microphone controls. This allows you to mute the ceiling microphones in the room, ensuring that only the wireless microphone is heard over the room and in Zoom/Teams calls from the room. This can be helpful if sounds being created by the audience in the room is distracting to the online audience.
