First, turn on the system by pressing anywhere on the touch screen. This will take you to the home page, with input sources and volume control (as seen below).
 Select your input source: PC, Laptop, or Doc Cam, or Blu-Ray player. PC: sign into the in-room desktop. It may be in extended mode, which treats the projector as a secondary screen and will only display when signed into the PC. To change it back to duplicate mode, navigate to Settings > System > Display > scroll to Multiple Displays > select Duplicate these displays from the drop-down menu. Laptop: plug in your device into the HDMI cable directly or use the USB-C adapter Doc Cam: Check that the Doc Cam is powered on--this should be indicated by its light.

You can utilize the microphones and camera on either the in-room PC or your personal laptop for conferencing & recording.
Selecting Inputs PC: Teams, Zoom, and Panopto should auto-select the camera & microphones as these are already connected to the desktop. Laptop: Plug in the USB cable labeled as “Cam & Mics” and then Teams, Zoom, and Panopto should auto-select these. | Info |

Camera & Mic Controls Camera controls  Microphone Controls There are two microphones: a lapel microphone and handheld microphone. While amplifying your voice locally, the mics can simultaneously be used in conferencing or recording as we programmed specific Acoustic-Echo Cancellation (AEC) software. Volume: Control the individual Mic levels and Mutes from the Mic Levels page OR the Overall Mic Level & Master Mute from the Home page. See both below. Amplification: If you would like only use the microphones for conferencing/recording and not amplify your voice locally, simply turn on the Master Mic Mute. Thus, this only mutes the local amplification. This also means you must manually mute your microphone within the Teams/Zoom/Panopto application if you want it muted in your meetings or recording.
