   The podium, projector, and room audio system will start up.
2. Lower the projection screen using the wall button.

2. One student in the class should use the keyboard to log in to the podium PC with their PSU user ID and password.
3. From the start menu, type Zoom to launch the Zoom application.
4. Select Sign In.
5. Select Sign in with SSO.
6. At the domain prompt, type psu then click Continue.

Configure Audio & Video

2. In the bottom left next to the Mute icon, click the ^, then click Test Speaker & Microphone…
3. Run the test until the sound is coming from the room speakers and the microphone audio from the webcam is clearly picked up.
   Because the only microphone in this space is in the webcam, it’s possible that instructors and others on Zoom may not be able to hear those who are not sitting near it. We recommend students needing to speak be near the webcam or use the chat function.
4. Click Start Video and position the webcam’s swivel mount, flexible arm, and spring clasp in a position that allows video to be captured from most of the room.
   There is no need for anybody to remain at the podium once the meeting has begun and the settings have been configured.
