Getting Started

 
  1. Find the control panel next to the light switch at the room entrance.
  2. Press 'On' to turn on the projector  (wait... it could take a minute warm up)
  3. Select 'Table' and plug the 'Table' HDMI cable into your laptop.  Your laptop screen should blink then the projector will display your screen after a few seconds.


For video and audio conferencing, make sure the tabletop microphones are enabled.  You should see a green light, unless the mics are muted (red).  It is not necessary to move the microphones, simply speak in the general direction of the mic.  The echo cancellation system works best if the microphone is directly below the ceiling speakers.

It is possible to make and receive phone calls at any time using the ClearOne Telephone Controller Unit.  During a web based audio or video conference the output of the telephone is mixed by the system, enabling remote and local users to participate in the conversation.
