Starting an E-Presence Classroom

To connect your class from a E-Presence classoom, please follow these instructions:

1. All E-Presence classrooms are equipped with either a control box on the wall or a control touchscreen on the desk. Press the “On” button to turn on the equipment.
   NOTE: If using a control touchscreen that is off, tap anywhere on the screen to activate it.
2. Ensure the “PC” or “Desktop” button is pressed.
   NOTE: E-Presence classes only utilize the "On," "Off," and "PC/Desktop" buttons and volume knobs, unless otherwise noted.
3. On the PC, login to the E-Presence account, not your own account. The account information should be listed in the room and begins with “ep.”
4. After logon has completed, the Zoom client should load after a few seconds.
5. Open the "E-Presence Connection Info" shortcut on the desktop and click on the link to your class.
   You should now be in the class or meeting.

After class or the meeting finishes, please do the following:

1. In Zoom, click "End" at the bottom right of the Zoom window and click "End Meeting for All" (if that option is not available, click "Leave Meeting").
2. On the control box, tap or push the "Off" to turn off the classroom's displays.
3. Leave the computer on. Do NOT turn off or shut down the computer.
