There is a volume dial for display sources. The LED display will indicate the current volume level.

Video sources e.g. PC, laptop, can be selected at the press of a button, switching between sources may take a couple of seconds. Changing sources is not possible while the projector is starting up.

There are multiple laptop cables available in this room, if no image is shown, please check you have the right input selected for the cable used.
