Each input is assigned a number in the black Crestron box on the Counter by Mac. Each number has an LED light that shows signal to that input. Typically the following applies: 1. = Blank, 2. = Blank, 3. = HDMI, 4. = MAC VGA. If you do not see a light then no input is detected and you have a connection issue. Otherwise, the input being displayed shines green, and any other source waiting to be selected shines orange. If you need another input to display, push the designated button (if Orange) on the black box and you can switch to your device.
