Step by step
1. Turn on
- 1Wake the system: press ON at the Extron wall panel, Crestron panel or Zoom Rooms tablet.
- 2Wait 30-60 seconds — projectors and displays need time to warm up.

- 4Turn on the Dell room PC if the class uses it.
2. Connect
- 1Plug the room's HDMI cable into your laptop (use the adapter in the cabinet if needed).

- 4On Windows press Windows + P and choose Duplicate; on Mac open System Settings > Displays > Mirror.
3. Use
- 1Set volume with the room dial or panel first, then your laptop volume (keep laptop near 75%).
- 2For a Zoom class, start or join the meeting from the Zoom Rooms tablet or the room display.
- 3Mics: turn on the Shure handheld or lapel mic and check the battery indicator.
- 4Use the room camera and mics in Zoom — not your laptop's built-in ones.
4. Turn off
- 1Press OFF on the Extron or Crestron panel, or end the meeting on the Zoom tablet.
- 2Unplug your laptop and leave the cable coiled on the table — do not take cables with you.
