How To Use Classroom Technology

Most classrooms use a Extron Electronics controller unit to operate most of the classroom A/V technology.  These controllers have buttons on them that allow you to do the following.

• Turn projector or display on and off
• Change inputs between PC, Laptop, DVD, VCR, Doc Cam, etc.
• Control volume
• Mute audio and video
• Raise and lower screen (in classrooms equipped with electric screens)

For classrooms on campus that have a display such as a projector or monitor, but do not have the Extron Electronics controller available, a remote will be present to turn on display and select the source needed.
