Data/Video Projector Directions

1. Get the Projector remote control and the projector/computer video cable out of the AV closet.

2. Lower the large projection screen using the “Screen #3” switch below the chalkboard.

3. Turn on the projector. Aim the remote control at the projection booth. Make sure the remote control is on. There is a power button for the remote on the upper right side.
