First thing is to Check your UTORid STATUS with the URL below:

https://www.utorid.utoronto.ca/cgi-bin/utorid/verify.pl

(or go to www.utorid.utoronto.ca and click verify at the bottom)

This will confirm that your UTORid is active and will work with the TSJr. If your UTORid fails this verification, we cannot gaurantee that your laptop will be able to activate and communicate with the TSJr.

When you get to the classroom....You need to connect 2 cables

First, the network cable for login and internet. Even if you do not require internet, you should connect this cable first in order to allow you access to use the teaching station. If a successful connection is made and your UTORid is valid for TSJr use, the power button on the black panel will flash red and you can move on to the next step.

Second, a choice of video cable (either VGA or HDMI)please note: Not All TSJr have HDMI connections - for a list of rooms that have HDMI, contact ACE.

Optional: You can also attach the audio pin if you want sound
