These are instructions for setting up Adobe Connect to use for AV broadcast of a presentation to a secondary room. Specific definitions…

  • LWSN 1142: Main room where presenter is located

This setup uses three computers:

  • LWSN 1142 workstation: Main login happens here. Becomes meeting “Host”.
  • LWSN 1142 laptop in back of room: Video camera and wireless mic plug into laptop. Laptop joins meeting as “Guest” with presenter's name.
