Pre-requisites for Synappx Collaboration Hub (Microsoft 365 and Windows Settings)
The following components should be completed prior to install and configuration of Synappx Collaboration Hub. For enhanced security with optimal usability, Windows configuration is recommended.
1. Synappx Go and Synappx Meeting License
The following license is required to use Synappx Collaboration Hub.
Please contact your Sharp representative to obtain the license.
- Synappx Go User License: One per user( Note: This feature is not available for guests created in the custom database).
- Synappx Meeting Room License: One per Workspace
2. Meeting Room Resources (Required for the MS 365 environment)
When Synappx Meeting is used in “Workspace” mode, MS 365 must have a room resource calendar and Office 365 license applied to the resource account. This account is used to log in to Synappx Meeting installed on the in-room PC and MS Teams (when installed on the in-room PC), and to view downloaded files during the meeting. When logged in, and with Workspace mode enabled, Synappx Meeting displays a scheduled meeting list with an organiser and reserved time.
3. Microsoft Teams Configurations (Required for the MS 365 environment)
The resource account is required to log in to install the MS Teams application on an in-room PC. Once logged in, it shows a list of meetings that are scheduled to occur in the room. It is strongly recommended to further configure MS Teams settings to set controls, such as access to calendar and chat history.
4. In-Room Computer with Microsoft Windows Login
When the in-room PC is kept logged on so that each user is not required to log in, it is recommended to place necessary measures to maintain security and integrity. Some recommendations include:
Note: For Google Workspace, create a shared Google user account and login to default browser with the account on in-room PC.
