    • If the OK button is not available, the selected option is not available for the room.
  • After the selection has been made, it is necessary to wait, sometimes the setting can take up to 20 seconds.
  • If you do not find the scenario you need for your teaching in the menu, contact the IT department. It is NOT recommended to use the MS Windows "Screen Settings" user interface to set up displays.

Troubleshooting

  • If a device does not receive a signal after selecting a scenario:
    • Check that the device is not powered off, in sleep mode, or without power.
    • Check for obvious cable disconnection (especially the graphics tablet)
    • If the projector is lit and has not received a signal, check that it is switched to HDMI1 input (white remote)
    • If the TV display does not show the desired signal, check that it is switched to the HDMI1 input (black remote control)
    • Restart or turn off and on the PC and try the settings again
