1. Mirroring a laptop screen onto the conference room TV
- Turn on the TV - use the power button on the TV or its remote
- Make sure the input on the TV is set to the Roku Box: HDMI1 ROKU - If you see the aquarium screen saver or a Roku page, you are good to go. Wake up the Roku Box, if necessary.
- On the presentation laptop or your own Mac laptop, connect to the TV via AirPlay (Click Control Center
in the menu bar => Screen Mirroring 
), then choose Manzanita Room and enter the code that is displayed on the TV.
Use Wireless Display on a Windows laptop.
2. Starting a Zoom session
- Start the Zoom session on the presentation laptop
- Both the video and audio should be set to the Meeting Owl
- Test the audio: Use the “Test speaker & Microphone…” link from the pop-up window or in the audio control menu
- The audio from the presentation laptop (connected to the Owl) should be the only audio connected to Zoom (do not join audio on any other laptop in the room). Adjust the volume with the buttons on the Owl.
- To show your own laptop screen to the other participants (local and remote), join the same Zoom session (but don’t join audio!), and use Zoom’s Share Screen feature
If you have trouble connecting to the TVs or starting your Zoom session, or are looking to address a specific use case, please contact Thomas, our onsite IT support, in room 321.
