Help, the audio is not working in my classroom!

Help, the audio is not working in my classroom!

Many of you have faced this challenge in the classroom recently. The root cause of this problem is a programming design decision. It made sense at the time (although I can’t remember want sense it made) but we were clearly wrong about that decision. The non-intuitive nature of the audio operations in the BLC classroom has caused much confusion.

Audio routing in the BLC Classrooms:

  • If you blank a projector, audio is muted (the root cause of the problem)

  • If you select “auxiliary audio”, the audio to/from the PC is muted.

The remedy:

To restore audio in the room, reroute a monitor to a projector or the confidence monitor. 

 To fix this go to the Display Tab

  1. Touch Monitor 1

  1. Touch Confidence Monitor 

Even though this was already set, it will force a reroute of the audio signal.

We are looking to have this reprogrammed for the Spring semester to be more obvious in the control intentions.
