Meetup and Microsoft Teams

Using the Logitech Meetup conference camera with Microsoft Teams in an equipped room.


Guide

  1. Turn the room on using the iPad controller by selecting the HDMI computer input.
  2. Locate and connect the HDMI Cable on the podium to your computer, or to your adapter.
  3. Locate and connect the USB cable on the podium to your computer

    Note

    In some rooms you may get a blue overlay on your screen noting that the Sharp Interactive is synchronizing, and to not touch the screen. This is normal behavior, and will go away on its' own.

  4. Open Microsoft Teams on your laptop

    Note

    The steps for PC and Mac are very similar, with the exception that some external devices may show up under longer or different names.

  5. Start a call via the following steps:

    1. Click the Calendar button on the left side button menu. 
      1. If you don't already have a meeting setup, you will need to create a meeting via the New meeting button located at the top right of the window.
    2. If a meeting is already scheduled, click on the meeting, and then in the window that opens, click the Join button located at the top right of the window.
    3. A new window will pop up that will contain the video, chat, and all other functions for the meeting
    4. In the meeting window that pops up, you will be presented with a video preview window that contains a video on/off toggle, a mic on/off toggle, a settings button, and a Join Now button

      1. For the video toggle, make sure it is in the on position, otherwise participants will not see your video
      2. For the audio toggle, make sure it is also in the on position, otherwise remote participants will not be able to hear you
      3. If the video preview shows you the video angle that you would like to start with, click the Join Now button to enter the meeting.
      4. If you would like to change the video angle to a different available camera, click the settings gear button to open the Device Settings tab.
      5. In the Device Settings tab you will be able to change what speaker the audio routes to, what microphone Teams will get audio from, and what Camera you are using.
        1. For speaker, if on a Mac, select: Logitech MeetUp Speakerphone. If on a PC, select: Echo Cancelling Speakerphone

          Note

          In some instances, you may get a warning from Teams that the speaker volume is low. This is generally caused by your audio routing to the room system and you can ignore this warning.

        2. For microphone, if on a Mac, select: Logitech MeetUp Speakerphone. If on a PC, select: Echo Cancelling Speakerphone

        3. For video, you may select whatever camera angle you would like from the options you have. The Meetup will show up as Logitech MeetUp for both Mac and PC.

          Note

          At this point, make sure that anyone who is in the same room that will be joining this meeting has their microphone, and speaker muted. If multiple speakers and microphones are live in the same room, it will create an echo or a feedback loop that is very distracting and loud.

    5. Click Join Meeting, you will then enter the meeting, and you should be able to see and hear remote participants via the meetup speaker, and they should be able to see and hear the classroom as well.

  6. Once you are in a meeting, should you need to change your camera, or audio in/out settings, hover over the three dots at the top right of the video screen.

    1. In the drop down menu that appears, click show device settings, this will open a tab on the right side of the screen that will allow you to change your microphone, speaker, and camera settings.

      Note

      A quick way to change just your camera angle is by clicking the Camera icon with your video preview in the bottom right corner of the video feed. This will cycle through all available cameras.

  7. If during the meeting you need to mute your audio or video, click on the appropriate icon in the toolbar at the top right of the screen.
