Press the Video Presentation button and select a video source (this will turn on the projector). The Master Volume controls both the video source and microphone volume simultaneously. If you press the speaker icon, all audio will be muted, while pressing the microphone button only mutes the mic. If you wish to mute the video without muting the microphone, press the Video Source Audio Mute button above.

Pressing MAX + on the video preview window allows a full screen view of the displayed content. Press MIN - to return to the previous view.
