This document will help you better understand how to utilize the mobile source option on the touchscreen. To begin, make sure that class has started and that the “Mobile” option has been selected on the touchscreen in the left-hand menu at the bottom.

Selecting this option will once again have the video mute and video freeze options and will also have text on the right side of the screen. This is the necessary information to connect your device to the system to present.

Connecting an iOS Device

To connect an Apple device, go into the control center of your device (by swiping downward from the upper-right hand corner), and select the icon with two rectangles going over each other. 

Apple Mirroring

This will open the screen mirroring menu. To make the connection, select the device that shares a name with the one displayed on the touchscreen. After making the correct selection, it will prompt for a passcode. This can also be found on the touchscreen. After entering the passcode, the connection will be made, and you can present video/audio from your mobile device. When you are done, go back into the control center of your device, open the screen mirroring menu, and select “Stop Mirroring.”

Sharing key

Connecting an Android Device

To connect with an Android device, you will need to install the application called “Crestron AirMedia” from the Google Play store. After doing so, open the application and enter the URL or Connection Address displayed on the touchscreen. It will ask for the passcode after you select the correct device. After completing these steps, tap the button that says, “Present with AirMedia.” When you are done, go back into the app and select the “Stop Sharing” button when finished.
