Room Modes

  • In Basic Mode, all eight screens show the same content. This mode will start with the Room PC selected as the initial input, but additional options are available.  
  • Host a Zoom Meeting: This mode functions the same as Basic Mode, except it will start with Zoom Room selected as the initial input. See additional instructions on running a Zoom Meeting below. 
  • In Dual Content Mode, Display A (the left screen on each wall) shows one source of content and Display B (the right screen on each wall) can show a second source. The Room PC will start as the initial input for Display A and ShareLink 1 as the initial input B, but additional options are available. 
  • In Breakout Mode: In-Person, all four screens show independent local content to facilitate breakout activities. This mode will start with a separate ShareLink device selected as the initial input for each screen to enable wireless collaboration. 
  • Breakout Mode: HyFlex functions the same as Breakout Mode: In-Person, except some screens are Zoom-capable to facilitate breakout activities with a combination of in-person and remote students. The only difference between the two breakout modes is the initial input. In Breakout Mode: HyFlex the initial input for each screen is either Zoom or a ShareLink device, depending on capabilities.
