Controlling the A/V System
Using the Touch Panel
The touch panel controls most functions in the room. The touch panel is labeled below with the colors corresponding to a particular section explaining that function.
Turning the system on and off
The AV system will power on when pressing the start page on the touch panel. This will turn on the projector, lower the screen, and switch the panel to the main menu page.
To turn the AV system off, press the red System Off button in the lower right corner.
Source Selection
To change sources, select the input you would like to send to the projector. You may choose between Podium PC, Laptop, Blu-ray and Doc Cam.
Volume Control
Volume can be controlled using the volume buttons at the bottom of any page on the touch panel. The raise and lower buttons are on either side of the volume bar and the mute button is located in the lower left corner.
Projector Controls
The projector and screen will automatically power on and off/raise and lower with the system.
All essential functions of the projector and screen can be controlled via the Crestron touch panel, and should not require a separate remote. On the left side of the touch panel are options for A/V Mute, Freeze, and screen controls.
- A/V Mute will shutter the projector and raise the screen. Use this feature when you want to use the whiteboard or front of the room without shutting down the system. Please only use this feature for up to 20 minutes, otherwise it's best to shut down the system.
- Freeze will freeze the currently displayed image on the screen. Use this feature if you'd like to hold a frame still on the screen or use the podium PC for another activity without displaying it, such as checking your email.
Inputs
Using the Podium PC and Lectern
The computer placed on the podium is the primary source for this AV system. This computer runs the same image as all other podium computers in general fund classrooms and labs. You can sign in with your UCCS credentials.
Using a Laptop
The HDMI cable on the lectern is for use with a laptop. Connect your device and switch to the laptop input on the touch panel to project.
Using the Vaddio/Hyflex VTC System
Hyflex controls can be accessed by pressing the Camera button on the main page of the touch panel.
Using the Blu-ray Player
Selecting the Blu-ray source will open the Blu-ray control page. Use this page to turn on the player, open the disc drive, and navigate through the disc menus.
The Blu-ray player is located on the top shelf behind the left door of the lectern.
Using the Document Camera
Selecting the document camera source on the touch panel will route it to the projector. The document camera on the lectern is powered on by raising/folding it up. On the top of the document camera are controls for zoom and auto focus.
Microphone
There is a goose-neck microphone on the right side of the lectern. It's always on and primarily used for voice amplification.
Screen Control
The screen controls are behind the lectern and to the right side of the screen.
The screen in this room is automatically operated. By turning on the system, the screen should lower. When you turn off the system, it should raise. You can also use the controls on the touch screen and the wall controls as well.
