Before you start:
This panel controls the display and audio routing for two projectors and two monitors in Rm. 136 of
Engineering Hall. With this device, you will be able to display multiple images at once within the
classroom. This manual will explain the panel’s basic controls and how they will be useful to you.
Starting Up
To start up the panel:
1. If the screen is black, tap once to wake
2. Tap the screen again to start, the display will load.
Once the panel is ready, you will see this screen:

Source: Podium
The podium source contains two displays, Primary and Secondary. The primary source is the monitor to
your left, and secondary is the monitor to your right. You can display both displays simultaneously using
the projectors, or you can display one on both projectors.
When you press the Podium source button, you will see this screen:
To display both desktops on their own projectors:

2.
3.
4.
Select a source so that it turns yellow, as shown.
Choose which projector you want to display it on and press that projector button.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 with the other source and projector.
When you choose a projector to display on, it will automatically turn on and the projection
screen will lower.
To display one desktop on both projectors:
1. Follow the same steps as above, except select the same desktop both times.
2. The projectors will turn on and the screens will automatically lower.
Special Note: If you are displaying a desktop on the projectors, but would like to do something private
(like check email), select Network PC on the panel and choose the projector you wish to make private.
The screen will go blue and so that the room cannot see your screen. Once you are done and want to
continue your display, simply press the Podium button and choose the desktop and projector you wish
to display on.

Source: Laptop
This classroom contains two laptop plugins that are connected to the two monitors in the back of the
room. This allows students to connect their laptops to the monitors and display their work exclusively on
that monitor. If a student is plugged into the monitor and you would like to display their screen onto the
projectors for the room to see, the laptop source will allow you to display that monitor on one or both
projectors.
When you press the Laptop button, you will see this screen:
To display a monitor display on one or both projectors, follow the same steps you would for the podium
source:
1. Choose your source and projector(s)
2. If both laptops are plugged in, you can show each on one projector, or display one laptop on one
or both projectors.
4
Source: Network PC
Displaying from Network PC allows you to wirelessly display an image on one or both projectors from
your laptop. This gives you the ability to travel around the room with your laptop while the image is
being projected.
In order to project wirelessly, you will need the EasyMP Network Projection Software from Epson. You
can obtain this software from COE Technology Services. After installation, a COE tech can teach you how
to use the software to project wirelessly.
Source: Cable TV
Cable TV can be shown on one or both projectors. When you press the Cable TV button, you will see this
screen:
You can choose from one of the preset channels or manually search by using the number pad.

Display Control
Display control allows you to manually control power to both projectors and monitors as well as to the
projection screens. When you press the Display Control button, you will see this screen:
Projector Controls:
Use the projector controls to turn the projectors on and off. Because the projectors automatically turn
on when they receive a source, this function should only be used when you are done using the display,
but wish to continue display on the other projector.
NOTE: Please do not continue to turn the projectors on and off manually throughout a class. It causes
damage to the bulb. If you need a private screen to check email or something else that you do not wish
to be displayed, press Network PC and send it to the projector you wish to make private. The screen will
go blue and so that the room cannot see your screen. Once you are done and want to continue your
display, simply press the source button that was previously displaying and choose the source and
projector you wish to display on.
Screen Controls:
Use the screen controls to bring the screen up or down during projection or after you are done using a
certain projector.
This control is useful when:
1. You want to write on your screen display using the whiteboard.
2. You are done with one projector and need more blank whiteboard space.
NOTE: Please do not use Display Control to turn the monitors off. They will turn off
automatically when laptops are unplugged. Turning monitors off in display controls disables
them from automatically turning on when a laptop is plugged in.

Record Control
This screen will allow you to control the screen casting capabilities of the room. You can record
your presentations to watch later and you can also broadcast your presentation for remote viewing live
or at their convenience.
You can record one camera source (Front and Back) and one content source (Podium primary, Podium
secondary, Laptop A and Laptop B). These two sources can be switched on the fly. These Before you
start recording your lecture, please give coetech@marquette.edu a courtesy email before you begin.
There are two main options in the top row of buttons, which allow you to switch between recording
controls and camera controls.
Recorder Control
Under this panel, you can start your recording by pressing “record”. If you are broadcasting your
presentation, record will also start sending out the video. If you want to stop your presentation for a
short amount of time, use the “pause” button. This will allow you to restart your presentation without
having to send out another link to your presentation feed. If you have ended your presentation, hit the
stop button.
The bottom row of icons allows you to switch between your two inputs. You can select one camera
source and one content source. The default is rear camera and podium primary, which will show the
PowerPoint and the lecturer.
Camera Controls
There are three available presets for each camera.
Rear Camera
Preset 1: Wide shot, including audience
Preset 2: Wide shot, focus on podium
Preset 3: Close shot, focus on presenter
Front Camera
Preset 1: Left
Preset 2: Center
Preset 3: Right
You can use this mode to adjust the camera position, using the up, down, left, and right buttons located
on the sides of the screen. The zoom controls are in the upper left, and the focus controls are located in
the top right. Auto focus should be applicable to most situations.

To switch between the front and rear cameras, select your preferred input by tapping on it in the lower
left hand corner.
