Usage Scenarios
In-Person Presentation
The simplest usage scenario is that of using the document camera for in-person meetings, where the device鈥檚 video output needs only to be viewed on a local display.
Connect an HDMI cable between the document camera output and the input of the local display unit (e.g., monitor or video projector).
Refer to the Quick Start聽or the User's Guide for more information on how to operate the document camera.
Zoom Presentation with Web Conferencing Cart
In this scenario, the document camera output is used as the video source in a Zoom meeting using the department鈥檚 Web Conferencing Cart (WCC). One may optionally replicate content shown on the WCC to an external display, such as a classroom projector.
Please familiarize yourself with the workings of the WCC if you have not done so already; the WCC: Zoom Presentation with Extended Display + Projector聽scenario is similar. The following instructions mainly detail how to connect the document camera to the WCC and how to share the document camera video in the Zoom meeting.
Setup

- Make the necessary connections as shown above (connect the HDMI cable to the document camera only when instructed)
- Turn on the WCC as instructed on the cart
- Turn on the document camera
- Ensure that the Zoom meeting host has started the meeting
- Join the meeting from the WCC controller
- Configure the meeting on from the WCC controller (microphone, camera, view)
