In each of these classrooms there is a sound system, video/data projection system, SVHS VCR, and a microphone mixer. There is also an interconnect panel that allows you to connect portable playback devices and computers to the projection and sound systems. If you want to project a computer display, you will need a monitor extension cable.

NOTE: The video-data projectors in these classrooms are only capable of 640 by 480 resolution. For Window's based computers, you will need to go into Control Panel/Display/Settings and change the resolution of your computer's display driver. If you need help with this, contact your institution's computing services department or call our technical services department at 303-556-2456 for help.

All rooms have Ethernet connections. To connect to the Ethernet port, your computer must have a networking card and you will need a data cable. Contact your computing services department for instructions on how to configure your computer for use in the Plaza Building.

Microphones, slide-to-video converters, film-to-video converters and document cameras are available for use in these rooms by reservation from Media Equipment Services (303-556-3543)
