Introduction
This article describes first-time setup for a Zoom Digital Signage appliance if it is not already being installed by Classroom Technology Services (CTS). It is presumed that you already have a display installed, have identified an active network jack for the player, and have obtained a license code from CTS.
It is recommended that the player is installed at least 24 hours before you need to display content, as there may be necessary software updates that install overnight.
Required Items
- Wired USB mouse, or wireless mouse with USB dongle. This is only used for initial setup.
- Materials and tools to mount and secure the player.
- HDMI cable and network cable may be required. Yealink RoomCast comes with these in the box.
Installation
After securing the device to the display, connect the following cables:
- HDMI cable from the player to a HDMI input on the display
- Network cable from an active network jack to the RJ45 port on the player
- A USB mouse to a USB port of the player
- Yealink RoomCast players are powered over their network ports, but other players may need AC power adapters.
Activation
When device has booted, you will see a Sign-In page. Please choose "Use Activation Code" to license the device. If you do not have an activation code, or if yours has expired, please contact Classroom Technology Services at x5475 or email classroom@csuchico.edu
Troubleshooting
You may see an error message stating "You need to upgrade Zoom Rooms system to use Zoom Rooms service". The devices will automatically update themselves overnight, or you can contact CTS to manually upgrade the device remotely.
Please note the manual update process can take up to 45 minutes to complete
