Display Requirements
The TeamWork system is designed to work with most brands and models of flat panel displays available worldwide. Test the
display thoroughly prior to installation or mass deployment of TeamWork systems. For optimum performance, consider the
following when selecting the displays for your TeamWork installation.
Power attributes
— The system works by controlling AC power to the display. When the display is in the ON state with an HDMI
input selected, it must be able to power back ON to the same HDMI input when AC power is disconnected and reconnected. If
the display does not behave this way, use an alternate display. Alternatively, you may need to control the display a different way
(for example RS-232, infrared, or via Ethernet) using a different type of Extron control processor.
Sleep mode
— If the display has a Sleep Mode feature (sometimes called “auto sleep”), disable it. Many displays have an option
to disable this within the menu settings.
Resolution
— The TeamWork systems were designed for use with flat panels having an HDMI input connector and having a
native resolution of 1080p. Many consumer and professional displays support 1080p natively.
Audio
— Audio from source devices is supported in the TeamWork system by routing it as an embedded audio signal to the
display for playback via integrated speakers. Most displays with HDMI inputs and integrated speakers work this way. Some
professional or commercial grade displays do not have integrated speakers and will not support audio playback. Typically, source
devices with HDMI output connectors embed audio onto the HDMI connector.
NOTES:
•
Always check and test compatibility before installation. Some systems may require advanced configuration of the system
controller and require the display to be controlled by RS-232, Ethernet, or Infrared.
•
Some displays support a lockout of local buttons. Extron recommends that, after setup, user accessible controls are
locked whenever possible. This ensures the display remains optimized for the TeamWork system.

Resolution Display
The display should have an
HDMI input and support
embedded audio.
For Audio Playback,
the display should have
integrated speakers.
Teamwork Systems work
by controlling AC power
to the display.
TeamWork systems require a display that
returns to the previous state when the power
cord is disconnected and then plugged back
in.
How to check if a display is compatible:
1.
Apply AC power to the display.
2.
Turn the display on.
3.
Select the video input.
4.
Adjust the volume.
5.
Unplug the display (remove AC power).
6.
Re-apply AC power to the display.
If the display powers back up (to the on state)
and to the same input and volume level, the
display will work with the TeamWork system.
