Connect your computer using the HDMI cable labeled “ZOOM LAPTOP.” If you need an HDMI adapter, there should be one on the desk or on the shelves. You can either configure your computer to mirror your screen, or you can use it as an extended display.
Important Note: This configuration does not have an option for playing audio from your computer. If audio is needed from your computer, choose either of the other projection options or talk with the Creative Engineer for alternatives.

If you need audio to play from your computer, find the XLR cable that is connected to the LTI Blox (3). This device allows you to control the volume level and connect to the headphone port on your computer. It should be located near the HDMI cable, under the table. Turn the dial clockwise to increase the volume.
Important Note: Please remember to turn your computer’s volume all the way up. If you are using a program that has its own volume control, please be sure to turn it up.
Clicker
Under the computer monitor there should be a black bag with a clicker inside. Take out the clicker, move the switch to the on position, and wait for it to connect. Once it connects, the right and left arrows will move forward and backwards in the presentation. For the clicker to work, you must keep the presentation software (ProPresenter or PowerPoint) as the active program on the computer. If another program is active, the clicker will not work as intended.

Choose one of the four handheld mics. Blue is the typical choice, but any will do. Add batteries and then press and hold the power button until you see the LED turn green.
Go to the iPad and open the App titled “X32 MIX” (1). Make sure the app is on the “Home” screen (2). The wireless handheld mics are located on the first bank of sliders “Ch 1-8” (3).
