Please be aware that the procedure for using Zoom in General Pool Base Classrooms has changed. Instead of using the standalone Zoom Room system with a touchscreen, users will operate the Zoom desktop application on the podium PC.
The setup includes two podium monitors—one dedicated to the podium PC and the other serving as a confidence monitor to display the selected input source. When the PC is selected, the monitor will function as an extended display.
Using the Zoom Desktop Application
Power on the room AV system and select PC as the source
Launch the Zoom application on the podium PC and login via SSO (Single Sign-On).
Select the correct audio and video devices
Microphone: Shure MVi
Speaker: ExtronScalerD
Camera: Dell Monitor RGB Webcam
Start or join a Zoom meeting using your preferred method (e.g. through the Zoom app, Google Calendar, or Canvas)
When sharing content from the podium PC, choose the monitor duplicated to the projector so both in-person and remote attendees can view it.
To share content from the document camera with Zoom, a secondary application called Sphere2 is required.
Turn on the Document Camera (allow a minute to turn on)
Double-click on the Sphere2 icon on the desktop
Share the Sphere2 window in Zoom
