After reading this article, you’ll be able to:

  • Configure the Room Display app through Device Control to run on a QBIC meeting room display
  • Configure the Room Display app on a generic meeting room display

Prerequisites

  1. You’ll need both a room display that is compatible with the Room Display app (see System Requirements for Workplace apps) + a PC
  2. Both devices should be on the same network
  3. Create a device account (i.e. the device account that will be used to log into the Kiosk application) in Users and Groups
  4. Configure in Regional settings :
    1. Time Zone
    2. Language
    3. Time Format

Step 1 - 3 - Install & Launch the app

If you have a QBIC device: see Device Control for QBIC

If you want to run the app on another device than QBIC, you need to enter "https://roomdisplay.spacewell.com/" in the browser.

Step 4 - Configure the app

On the device, log in with the device account

You will have to provide the device account that has been configured in Users and Groups

Note

If your device account is already in use by another display, you will receive an error message. You’ll have to go to https://devicecontrol.cobundu.com/ and unlink the account used by the other device.

Wait for the app to ask for a configuration

If this is the first time you use the device account, the app will launch and give an error. Don’t panic, this is completely normal The app is asking which location to load.

You’ll need your laptop for the next few steps.

Open device control to set up the new app

Go to https://devicecontrol.cobundu.com/ and log in with an admin account.

You should see you new device in the list with a label “not configured” on the right.

Select Room to be applied
  1. Select “Default” region.
  2. Select the room you want to see on the Room Display app.
  3. Select "Default" profile.
  4. Select "Default" theme.
You might need to go back to the device and tap 'retry'

Once you pressed RETRY (or wait a couple of minutes) the app will continue its configuration

Congratulations, you're ready!

Now you’re good to go!

 

Info

Room Display app will automatically recognize if reservation data and/or occupancy data are available for the selected location and visualize that data:

  • reservation only
  • reservation-occupancy data
  • occupancy only
