Professor’s View

These pictures show the professor’s view, which includes an extended monitor as well as the document camera (picture right).

Directly in front of the professor’s monitor table are two screens called confidence monitors.

Confidence monitors mirror the student’s view. This means the picture right screen (blue) will show what is projected on the screen on the professor’s right side, while the left corresponds to the left projector.

The professor’s personal computer, which can be connected to the extended monitors (picture left, out of sight here), will reflect onto the screens as well, showing that your personal monitor is being projected to the class.

Student’s View

This is the student view, where the two projectors (shown here on the ceiling) will project what is shown on the professor’s extended monitors. Behind the projectors are three whiteboards.

---

Smart Control Panel

The smart control panel is found on the top of the monitor. Power on by pressing the “home” button, then select the displays you wish to use.

On the smart control panel, you have the option to turn on your projector screens by clicking the screen options. There are two projectors which are labeled here as Screen- Audience Right and Screen-Audience Left.

To lower the projector screens, press “Down” on the screen sections notated below. While you navigate between screens, you may also choose to “Blank Screen” button. This freezes the screen so that the instructor can navigate to another page without the students seeing it.

You can also just blank one screen by switching the output to either Zoom PC or laptop (if your laptop is not connected).

To end class and raise projectors/turn off screens, select “End Class”.

You may choose to project the PC monitor onto both projectors by selecting “Class PC” for BOTH right and left screens, or you can show the PC and your personal laptop if it is connected, by selecting “Your Laptop” as one of the options, as shown below. You may also choose to show Blu-Ray on one or both of the screens.

Visuals in Zoom

There are two camera options in Zoom for Classroom G, the Mini USB Camera and the ClearVIEW HD-USB Camera.

The Mini USB Camera can be found on the same wall as the white boards. From the professor’s position, looking up and to the right will reveal the camera.

The ClearVIEW HD-USB camera is mounted near the back of the classroom. From the instructor’s desk, simply look toward the rear of the room to locate it on the ceiling.

---

Document Camera (Works with the projector but is not compatible with Zoom)

The document camera is located on the right of the monitors. The two most important buttons are AF for auto-focus (if the image is blurry, press this button) and AWB for white balance (if the image is discolored, press this button). Below, see the image before and after white balance has been adjusted.

Ceiling Speakers and Microphones

The ceiling microphones are the small round mics set into the ceiling at intervals, while the large ones are the speakers. It is recommended that if there is a quieter student in the class, they sit under the microphones directly so their voice may be better projected.

---

Power Outlets

The power outlets are located underneath the student desks.

---

Microphone

The handheld microphone can be located in the charging port, next to the HDMI port. Always return the mic to the charging port when you are finished. To turn on, remove from the charging port and turn on by switching the “on” switch up.

The lapel microphone can be located in the charging port on top of the black equipment cabinet. The microphone is connected to the integrated computer system to record audio for streaming or recording lectures. Be sure to place the microphone back into the charging port as seen, with the “Shure” logo facing forward.

To use the microphone, turn it on using the switch at the top. Clip the mic (at the end of the cord) to your collar or jacket, close enough to your mouth so your voice can project clearly to the class.

Blu-Ray

For the Blu-ray player, only use the top blu-ray disk function. The rest of the console is correctly calibrated and should not be touched. If you are having troubles with audio, etc., call IS support.

---

Troubleshooting Audio

If there is an issue with audio in the classroom, remember that audio follows the video. Turn your screens on, which are the projectors and confidence monitors, and then try audio again.

Tap on Zoom PC to enable audio.

---

IS Helpline

The IS Helpline phone can be located on the wall to the left of the professor’s lectern. Simply pick it up to be automatically connected to an IS team member.
