  2. Make sure that you can logon to one of the computers in the lab.
  3. If you can’t logon make sure that the MAD ETIS Help Desk knows that you are a teaching assistant (TA) in a course that uses the lab.
  4. Familiarize yourself with the computers and the features of the room.
  5. If you need whiteboard marker kits, those can be signed out from the MAD ETIS Help Desk.

  • Use the wall switch (located near the screen) labeled “Screen” to bring the screen down (roll the screen back up when you have finished using it).
  • Turn the projector on using the power button on the remote control that is chained to the wall at the back of the room.
  • You can either project from a laptop or from the computer (ENVGEDDES27 / ENV-DMC-23) in the lab that is connected to the projector. There is a toggle switch attached to the desk that lets you flip back and forth between projecting from a laptop and the desktop computer.
  • To change the screen resolution, press the "AUTOPOSITION" button on the remote.

You can connect the a projector to ENVMAGELLAN04 and a computer (e.g. ENVMAGELLAN12) and project on the screen at the front of the room.
