Using the Extron Touch Panel

NOTE: Please notify Campus Life of your preferred room configuration when booking the room(s).
Each conference room is equipped with room partition sensors that alter the configuration of the Extron system, accordingly.
Campus Life must move room partitions BEFORE you use ANY technology in the room(s).

Conference room B is always the master room when S204 is configured as ABC (partitions open between A and B, B and C, closed between C and D).
If all S204 conference rooms are combined (all room partitions open), conference room B is still the master room.
