All LRS conference rooms include a connected LRS PC with wireless keyboard and mouse. A conference room account automatically logs on to the PC for use by anyone including guests. LRS employees may also "Switch User" and logon as themselves. IT recommends that employees use OWA for access to email when using any shared PC instead of configuring and waiting for Outlook to synchronize.
LRS conference rooms include table top video input or a video cable to connect your laptop or other devices to the display. Rooms with HDMI inputs contain dongles to convert from HDMI to VGA, Display Port, Mini-Display Port, Mini-HDMI, USB-C. Other rooms may contain a Quad tipped cable. Frequent LRS presenters typically already have or should have their own video converters specific to their devices for use at non-LRS and LRS facilities.
