'''Please see [[Hybrid Classroom AV]] for changes to the classrooms on the Hill Campus post-SY 2020-2021'''


== Basic Classroom AV Setup ==
AV setup in Hill Campus classrooms and other indoor teaching/conference spaces allow you to connect your USB-C laptop to enable:
* Audio/video & interactivity link (if present) to a Epson Brightlink projector and the Kramer speakers connected to the projector
* Audio-in connection from the [[Use In-Class Microphones|classroom microphones]]
* Charging power for your laptop
=== Anker Hub Diagram ===
Every classroom at Riverdale has an Anker Hub that allows you to connect your USB-C device and project to either the project or TV in that space. Refer to the image below for what the cables on the Anker Hub are used for:
* A power charger is connected to the '''USB-C Input''' port, and an '''HDMI''' cable is connected to the projector on one side of the hub.
* On the other side, the Blue Snowball is connected to one '''USB 3.0''' port, while the second '''USB 3.0''' port is used for the interactive connection to the projector.
=== Wall Plate Diagram ===
All physical connections to projectors and speakers are done through a wall plate. You can also connect to most classrooms' and larger AV installations through AppleTV.

==Connecting to the Projectors in the Multi Purpose Rooms (MPR)==
==Connecting to the Projectors in the Multi Purpose Rooms (MPR)==
The Hill Multi Purpose Rooms are primarily used as a single meeting space with two projectors and screens displaying a single presentation source connected to one of three possible input panels on the West, Center and East locations; or through Apple TV. The MPR can be divided into two separate meeting spaces with full AV. The West panel, nearest the main entrance door, is most frequently used to connect devices for full MPR presentations, although it is possible to have each projector display a separate presentation from either of the other two input panels with the room configured as one space.
