Procedure

Consult your network administrator and the Microsoft Teams Deployment Overview (provided by Microsoft) for details on getting your Microsoft Teams Room compute device running.

The Q-SYS Control for MTR.exe installer is included with the Q-SYS Designer download bundle. Or, you can download separately from the Q-SYS Software and Firmware website. Follow this procedure to install the application on the Microsoft Teams Room compute.

Requirements

Physical Components

  • Windows Based Microsoft Teams Room Compute and Controller
  • Q-SYS Core processor connected to the same network as the Microsoft Teams Room Compute and Controller device.

Software Components

  • Q-SYS Designer Software v9.0.0 or higher
  • Q-SYS Software Feature License for Microsoft Teams Rooms
    • The Q-SYS Software Feature License for Microsoft Teams Rooms is a single SKU that enables two software features on the Q-SYS Core processor:
      • Q-SYS Scripting Engine
      • Q-SYS UCI Deployment
  • Q-SYS Control for Microsoft Teams Rooms
    • Q-SYS Control for MTR is an application, installed on the Microsoft Teams Room compute via .exe installer, that allows the Teams Room console to display any Q-SYS UCI deployed on the Core – typically for room control. An icon appears on the Teams Room touch panel to switch over to Room Control mode to view the Q-SYS UCI. You can then switch back to the native Teams Room console display when ready.
    • The Q-SYS Control for MTR .exe installer is included with the Q-SYS Designer Software download and also available separately from the Q-SYS Software and Firmware website
