Start Using Impero Console
- Log in to the teaching station computer and open Impero Console from the desktop.
- Enter the password when prompted. Contact your Campus Support Team member if you do not know the password.
The Impero home screen will open and you will see a list of all computers in the lab.
Change Your Impero Home Screen Layout
On the Impero menu click the Layout tab and select how the room's computers should display on your screen. For example, in a list or as thumbnails.
Content Broadcasting
Using Impero, you can broadcast content from the teaching station directly to one or all student classroom computers. Students can also broadcast their screen content to your teaching station to share with the entire class via the projector.
- Select the computer(s) to receive the content broadcast.
NOTE: Only active computers can be selected. Active means that a user is logged in to the computer.
