project the images on the screen. In addition, please do not push the
Extron buttons at a rapid pace. Doing so could delay the system from
recognizing the device you wish to use causing a blue screen to appear.
If you get a blue screen, see the troubleshooting pages for more
help.

laptop in the drawer. Connect this cable to your laptop and to the
audio /comp port (PC1 Input) on the Extron system.
