SMART INSTRUCTOR TEACHING STATIONS

All classroom Instructor Teaching stations use an Extron control system. There is a touch panel either to the left of the computer monitor or on a technology cabinet in the corner of the room.

  1. Press the Power button labeled "Press to begin" icon in the center of the touch panel. This turns on the projector or other main displays.

  2. When the touch screen indicates, select the device  you would like to use for presenting.
    (PC = Station desktop computer, Laptop or HDMI = your laptop, Wireless = Airtame)
    1. Make sure your laptop is connected via an HDMI cable or via our wireless presentation "Airtame" system (http://airtame.com/start) where available.
    2. Volume is controlled by your computer (sound control panel) OR the application volume controls (Example: YouTube or VLC Media Player, etc.)

  3. When you conclude your class, please press the "Display Off, button and then confirm by pressing "Power Down" on the touch screen. This will shut down all technology except the computer. Please do not power off the computer, which should stay on (or asleep) at all times.

Note: The keyboard and mouse are on a slide-out keyboard tray just below the front top shelf of the cart. The computer is usually a small box located on the second shelf of the cart just below the keyboard tray.

You can play DVD's using the Instructor Teaching Station computer or your own laptop.
