Extron Control Panel


Press the ON button to turn on the LCD projector. After pressing ON, wait until the
projector has warmed up before selecting the desired source button on the Extron. This
should take approximately 15 seconds. The projector will not receive the command to
switch until after it has finished warming up.   

Please allow a second or two after pressing the button for a video source on the
Extron panel for it to display via the projector.
The projection screen should automatically lower when the room is powered up. There
are screen up and down controls on the Extron panel, as well as on the wall behind the
lectern.
If they are not already powered on, the resident computer, document camera, and Blu-ray
player can be powered on using the appropriate button located on each device, or with
their remote controls (if applicable).

The adjustment of volume is done using the knob located on the Extron Control Panel.
