Controlling the A/V System
Using the Remote
The remote for the projector controls most functions in the room. The remote is labeled below with the colors corresponding to a particular section explaining that function.
Turning the system on and off
To turn the system on, press the red "ON" button on the remote (outlined in orange above). This will only turn on the projector. You must physically pull on the string/handle on the screen to lower it.
To turn off the system, press the green "STANDBY" button twice (outlined in orange above). This will turn off the projector. To raise the screen, pull on the string/handle and the screen should raise. You may have to push on it a bit to get it all the way up.
Source Selection
The source should always be HDBaseT (outlined in blue above). The projector will automatically use the laptop HDMI connection if it is connected.
Volume Control
Volume can be controlled on the projector by pressing the volume button, then using the left and right arrows (outlined in red above). It may also be controlled on the PC using the volume controls 
on the bottom right corner of the screen.
Projector Control
The most commonly used projector functions are Blank (A/V Mute) and Freeze. Blank is on the bottom middle of the remote, and Freeze is on the bottom left of the remote (both outlined in green above).
- Blank will shutter the projector and mute the audio. 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 your laptop for another activity without displaying it, such as checking your email
Inputs
Using a Laptop
This room is only equipped with an HDMI cable for a laptop. You can connect your laptop to this HDMI cord and the HDBaseT source will automatically switch the projector to using your laptop as the input. Additionally, the USB will provide the laptop with Vaddio devices to use for Hyflex learning sections.
Using the Vaddio/Hyflex VTC System
For rooms with no podium PC, there is a USB cable that you will need to plug into to connect to the hyflex system.
Screen Control
The screen in this room is manually operated. The handle, with a string attached, is outlined in black in the photo below.
