    1. Make sure that your device is connected to a wireless network that has communication enabled with the wired Prysm display network. You may need a VPN connection or authentication. Contact your System Administrator for assistance.
      Wireless sharing is supported as follows:
      • Apple AirPlay with iOS 7.0 or higher (on iPhone, iPad, and iPod) or Mac OS 10.8 or higher (on Mac computers)
      • Google Cast using the Cast extension from a Google Chrome browser (on Windows/Mac desktop computers)
    2. Connect your device to the display using an HDMI cable, Apple AirPlay, or Google Cast. The display name is shown at the top of the display.display-name.png
      Upon connection, content from your device is automatically shared on the display.
