Classroom Displays

MLC Classrooms in the WCC, Music Hall, and Music Center are equipped with a display that can be hooked up to your device. There are three general display types; interactive whiteboard, projector, and TV. Please see the Interactive Whiteboard page for information on those specific devices. Instructions on connecting to the projectors and TVs can be found below.

Displays (TVs)

• • Plug the HDMI cable (with an adapter, if required) into your device. The adapter ring is labeled if your device does not have an HDMI port.
  • Turn on the display.
  • The default display input is HDMI1. If your device's screen does not appear, use the Input button on the remote to select HDMI1.
  • The best screen resolution for your device when using the displays is 1920x1080. Click here for instructions on how to change it.
  • Some of the displays are mounted on adjustable mounts. Please keep them pushed as close to the wall as possible to reduce strain on the mounts. If you need adjustments made, please contact IT Services.

Projectors

• Plug the HDMI cable (with an adapter, if required) into your device. The adapter ring is labeled if your device does not have an HDMI port.
  
• Turn on the projector.
• The projector should default to the proper source to show your device. If your device's screen does not appear, use the Source Search button on the remote.

Sound

• As of Summer 2024, in most cases, sound is run through the display and not through a different sound system. If you need help switching your audio output, please watch this short YouTube video.
• Your device needs to be connected via the HDMI cable (with or without an adapter) for sound to work. 
• Sound levels are controlled on your device and through the volume control on either the display or projector.
• There are still a small number of rooms with auxiliary sound systems. Please contact IT Services if you require their use and need help.
