What are the setup requirements for Gen2 iPads (with a home button)?

Modified on Fri, 23 Aug, 2019 at 10:18 AM

We support Virtual setups that use an Apple iPad Pro 12.9 inch or 10.5 inch display with minimum 512GB storage, using an Apple Lightning Adapter and EDID emulator with audio extraction. Please note that we do not support setups using any other brand of AV adaptor OR use of Apple TV. 


AV requirements: External Display (projector, TV, monitor, LED screen etc), iPad (iPad pro 512GB minimum), Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter, EDID emulator with audio extraction, HDMI cables x2, audio cable, Apple iPad power adapter, strain relief for the Apple adapter, dedicated router.


Steps:

1a. Connect active HDMI cable to the external display and EDID emulator

1b. Connect short HDMI cable into the EDID emulator and Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter

1c. Connect audio cable from the EDID emulator to the sound system

1d. Connect the Apple iPad Pro power adapter to the Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter

1e. Connect Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter into the iPad Pro (ensure strain relief)

1f. Connect Cat5 network cable from the projector (or screen) to the dedicated router (ensure the dedicated router is placed as close as possible to the iPad)

1g. Power ON the iPad Pro and ensure it is connected to the correct wifi source (from the dedicated router)

1h. Power ON the external display and select the correct source input for the HDMI cable

At this stage the external display should be mirroring the iPad desktop icons
