Flexible hybrid at ºÚÁÏÍø

This is a reminder your laptop must be compatible with the new audio-visual equipment to utilize flexible hybrid; see details below for further information.

ºÚÁÏÍø devices (faculty and staff)

To ensure optimal functionality with the flexible hybrid equipment, your ºÚÁÏÍø laptop must have: a USB-C connection and an up-to-date drivers and firmware. If you are unsure if your device is compatible or requires an update, please submit a ticket to the IT Service Desk at least two weeks prior to the event asking for confirmation and assistance.

Personal devices (students/external visitors)

Although we have tested ºÚÁÏÍø issued devices with the flexible hybrid equipment, we are unable to test every make and model of the various personal devices that individuals bring to the classroom and/or events. As a result, we cannot guarantee that personal machines will be fully functional with the ºÚÁÏÍø flexible hybrid equipment. 

IT Services recommends:

  • Staff and faculty – ensure that you are using a compatible ºÚÁÏÍø-assigned device and not your personal machine.
  • External visitors/students with a personal device – the staff member who is responsible for the event should book a flexible hybrid loaner laptop from the IT Service Desk (this will be assigned in their name). This is a loaner that is booked for daily use only.
  • AV assistance – submit a ticket to the IT Service Desk (2 to 3 weeks prior) asking for AV assistance for the event if required. The technician will work with you to set up the laptop and ensure that the equipment if functional.

Testing

  • Always test devices prior to the event.
  • Conduct testing as close to the event date as possible to ensure that equipment hasn’t been moved by previous users, cables unplugged, settings changed, etc.
