STARTING THE MEETING
Join a scheduled meeting from the touch panel
When meetings are scheduled for the room, they will be listed on the home screen. To join your scheduled meeting simply tap the “join” button. You can also join the meeting whilst in the room from your laptop or mobile phone if you want to present or access meeting chat.
Join with meeting ID
Every Teams meeting has a unique 12-digit ID. Another way to join a meeting from the room is to add the meeting ID. You will find the meeting ID and passcode in your Outlook calendar invite.
Start a new ad-hoc meeting
When you want to use the system for a new, unscheduled meeting, the “meet” button allows you to create a new Teams meeting from the MTR system and invite people to it by searching a name or number in the text field.
Make a call
If your organization has telephony set up for the meeting room, pressing the “call” button will bring up a dial pad. Simply dial the number and press “call”.
You can also dial in participants to a meeting once it is in progress.
IN-MEETING CONTROLS
Invite and join the room to a meeting
If you have a meeting set up in your calendar or on your device, but the room hasn’t been invited already, you can add the room from your laptop or mobile device.
Joining your device to the meeting
You might also want to join the meeting from your device to share content or view people on your device whilst content is on the room display. When you join from your own device you can select “Don’t use audio” to join the meeting muted and with sound off. You can also select “Room audio” to use the meeting room audio. (Make sure your device is muted to avoid generating feedback.)
Sharing content
You can easily share content to the display whether you are in a meeting or not. Press the “share” button and select how you want to share the content. You can also dial in participants to a meeting once it is in progress.
(A frame around your content means it is being shared with remote participants.) In-Meeting controls overview
