.. attention:: The theater operating room is key-card locked at all times. Refer
               back to your theater reservation email for instructions on how 
               to access this room.

Theater start-up
----------------

1. Connect your personal machine to the projector using one of the two podium 
   connectors; VGA, or HDMI (Most MAC machines will require a VGA/HDMI adapter).

.. note:: For those individuals with Mac laptops, we do have several *Lightning 
          2* to HDMI and *Lightning 2* to VGA converters in the theater operating
          room. If a *Lightning 3* (USB-C) adaptor is needed, please contact 
          AVtraining@cs.uky.edu prior to theater use.

2. In the theater operating room locate the iPad on the table. Under the **Basic
   Usage** section, select the appropriate option in the *Theater Presets*
   section. Most computers will be connected via HDMI and would use :guilabel:
   `Theater On using Podium HDMI`. Wait for the theater to finish its start-up 
   routine.

3. To adjust the lighting, find the section called *Lighting Presets*. The one
   that works best for most presentations is :guilabel:`Presentation Lighting`.
   If you need more lighting, be careful not to washout the screen as many
   lighting options make it hard to see the presentation.

4. Sound and volume should only be adjusted on the iPad, **Please do not touch
   the Yamaha soundboard**. The microphones can be used without any other
   configuration needed.

5. When the presentation has completed please select :guilabel:`Theater Off`.
   All equipment will be turned off and be ready for the next user.

Microphones can be used without turning on the rest of the equipment. To use
them without the projector. To do so, simply find the section named **A/V** and select
:guilabel:`On` next to *Audio Mixer*.

Shutdown the theater using the same steps from **Theater shutdown** in the previous section.

   <#theater-start-up-(audio-only)>` section above

   board.

Blu-ray Player Usage

3. Press the button in the top right-hand corner of the player to open the tray 
   and insert your desired disk. The video should begin playing on the main 
   projector.

4. Use the Blu-ray remote (The one labeled 'SONY' and 'BD') to navigate the

   IPad control volume.

Troubleshooting
---------------

1. No picture: If the screen keeps flashing blue or black, unplug the power
from the device with two purple network cables on the bottom shelf of the podium
then plug it back in. This symptom is caused by a failure in the HDMI handshake.
To prevent it from happening, turn off power-saving features of your laptop.

2. No sound: Make sure the sound board is turned on in the control room.

3. Other problems or questions: Contact AV support `avtraining@cs.uky.edu` or
call 71839.
