Hybrid Theatre Presenter Guide
MBS has six lecture theatres fitted with AV technologies that allow participants to join through Zoom. This guide will show you how to log in, connect, and control your lecture, meeting, or conference in one of these rooms.
Logging In
To begin the session, touch anywhere on the control panel located on the presenter desk. This will power on the system.
Start Screen
Press the home button to toggle between the Zoom interface and presenter options. This will either be a tab on the left of the display, or a button on the right of the screen. To log in to the meeting, press “join meeting” on the Zoom interface. You will be prompted to enter your meeting ID and password.
Zoom Interface
Connecting To Zoom
The presenter can broadcast their materials via the provided desktop computer or their own device via USB, HDMI, or wirelessly via Apple TV or AirMedia for Windows devices. To get started, connect the device according to the method chosen, and press “Zoom” on the display options for that device. The device will then be broadcast as Zoom Content within the meeting.
Presenter Options
You do not need to connect your device to the projectors – this happens automatically when you select Zoom.
The presenter can control what is displayed on the projectors using the Zoom Content and Zoom Far End tabs on the top left corner of the touch panel. Zoom Content will display the device connected, while Zoom Far End will display the participants.
Customising Displays
You can choose what you display on the confidence monitor and rear wall monitor by pressing “switching controls” on the bottom of the screen. These monitors default to having Zoom Far End on the rear wall monitor and Zoom Content on the confidence monitor.
