Basic instructions
The MediaLink controller on top of the podium can be used
to turn the projector on and off, select input sources, control
the DVD/VCR unit, and set volume (the remote controls should
only be needed in the event advanced functions are required).
Please note that in the event buttons are pressed with the
projector off or the DVD/VCR mode is changed not using the
MediaLink, the controller may "get out of sync"
with the actual conditions. In most cases it is only necessary
to press the appropriate button again on the MediaLink (even
if it is already illuminated) to restore function. The exception
is the selection of DVD or VCR mode on the Player. The indicator
lights on the front of the DVD/VCR unit should agree with
the DVD or VCR indicator on the MediaLink. In case it does
not, you must change the mode on the player (either by using
the VCR or DVD button on the player itself or the DVD/VCR
select button near the top of the Sharp remote) to agree with
the MediaLink.
About the Sympodium
This unit allows you to draw over the computer image
using either an attached pen or your finger. There are many
functions available. Please refer to the manual provided for
instructions. If not using these features the button at the
top of the unit with an arrow symbol should be lit for normal
mouse function. If it is not, press that button to enable
it.
To turn the projector On or OFF
Use the projector ON and OFF buttons on the MediaLink. The
projector takes 30 seconds to warm up (The button will flash
while the projector is warming up or cooling down. Please
do not press other buttons during this time).

Note that the volume is controlled both by the PC volume setting
and the volume on the MediaLink.

Connect the VGA cable located in the "well" on the
left side of the podium top to the laptop VGA jack. If using
sound, connect the "mini" sound plug provided to
the laptop headphone jack. With the projector ON, press the
LAPTOP button on the MediaLink.You may need to press a function
key on your laptop to enable the external monitor function
(may be marked "LCD/CRT" or with a monitor icon).

be aware that it is on the faculty ("ACAD") network.
Your laptop must be configured with the proper IP address
settings for that network. Contact the helpdesk in advance
for help with network settings.
To Play & View a DVD, Videotape, or CD:

and SECAM media. However, French SECAM video tapes will only
play in black-and-white.]
