Get your classroom ready
1. Does your classroom meet the system requirements?
Check the table below to confirm that your classroom is set up properly for the Frontrow Pro Digital
system you have. While other classroom configurations may work with your Frontrow Pro Digital system,
we can only support those listed below.
2. Think about combining your other teaching technologies
Your Frontrow Pro Digital system is the communication center of your classroom. Take advantage of this
opportunity to connect your TV, VCR, computer, CD player, MP3 player and other teaching technology to
your active learning system. This will allow children to hear not only your voice, but also the rich multimedia
content you’re providing, regardless of where they’re seated.
Deciding what other devices you’ll want to connect to your FrontRow system now will make positioning the
receiver easier in Step 1. There are four ways to approach integration.
Option 1
Many classrooms use a computer as a multi-media "hub" (with an LCD projector), which is connected to
the internet or school network to download/stream all audio and video, and MP3 files. For these class-
rooms, you may only require one auxiliary audio input connection to the 940R.
