Connecting

Devices may be connected to the screens in two ways: wired and wirelessly.

Wired connection

Connect the device directly to a display port or an HDMI cable and push the play button.

Adapters are available for most devices. If none of the adapters fit your device, the device can still connect via a wireless connection.

Wireless connection (Airmedia)

Locate the cable with no connector head and push the play button.
The AirMedia screen should appear. Follow the instructions below.

Desktop and laptop

Enter the URL (or IP address) at the top of the AirMedia screen into a browser.
This will prompt you to download a very small program.
Double click the downloaded file to run it.
Enter the code from the right of the screen (digits).

Mobile

When using a mobile device, only certain document types, images and web browsing can be shared.

Download the Crestron Air Media app (if you are using a Concordia iPad, the app is already present in the communication folder).
Connect using the same URL (or IP address)/code combination as above.

*Troubleshooting* If the mobile app seems connected but nothing from the devices appears on the screen, quit the app completely and restart it.

Screen splitting

On wireless connection, the screen can be split into four sections.

From the Crestron control panel, click the options icon (below the "X").
Select desired quadrant (upper/lower and left/right).

All users must be connected wirelessly to access this functionality.

Switching between modes

To switch between a wired and wireless connection, simply push the respective play button on either the cable being used (for wired) or the headless cable (for wireless).

Webcam

Each mobile cart also has a wide-angle webcam. The camera must be plugged into a device in order to work.

Connect via the USB cable in the mobile cart (no play button).
Select the webcam as video input in the software of your choice.
