We have been requested by a few of our schools to supply a "dummy sheet/dummies guide" that contains information for teachers to connect the hardware to their laptops and a "what to do if" guide covering basic troubleshooting (turning board off/on) etc.

The guides will be a single sheet of A4 laminated and placed next to the boards so that any teacher can use his/her laptop with the promethean hardware available.

My question is, has anyone already made these? If so, would it be possible to share the resource?
If not, would this be a useful resource to anyone as we are due to make it in the next 48 hours or so.

We don't have a resource like that but I would be very grateful if you could share it as I am tired answering the same questions all the time. Great idea[clap]

Well I promised somebody it months ago so I'm sending an engineer out on site tomorrow to collate as much information as possible to make V1 and I will post the Pdfs here, however I will expect a lot of criticism on things I have missed so please feel free to use this thread to make any requests for modifications.

Two here that I've done. Might need condensing and I haven't even read them through tonight as am very tired and ready for bed.
