Laptop VGA

This will reveal a set of controls with an icon near the lower center named Air Play. Tapping the icon will display a list of Air Play compatible devices within the range of your device. Choose the name of the Apple TV that matches your room (displayed on the projection screen) to pair the two devices. Once paired, from your screen, slide the connected device up slightly to reveal the “mirror” control and drag to ON.
