Application Wiring
There are two different application methods with wiring examples shown below each.
Hall Technologies March 30, 2023
Page 8 of 39
APPLICATION 1 BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting)
This first application for BYOM includes two different methods of wiring,
depending on the capabilities of the connected laptop.
The first method can be used if the laptop supports USB Type-C where a single
USB Type-C can be used to project video from the connected laptop as well as
receive microphone audio and camera video from the HT-CALIPSO. This method
supports DP1.4, USB3.0, USB2.0 and PD (max 60W).
The second method is used if the laptop does not support USB Type-C. In this
method both HDMI and USB-A to USB-B cables are needed. The laptop uses the
HDMI to project video through the HT-CALIPSO to the connected display and uses
the USB-A to USB-B cable for microphone audio and camera video from the HT-
CALIPSO.

APPLICATION 2 ZOOM ROOM + BYOM
This second application for BYOM includes integrating the HT-CALIPSO with a
Zoom Room PC. This is accomplished by adding a USB Capture device to convert
the HDMI video out of the HT-CALIPSO into the Room PC along with a USB cable.
In this application the laptop is used as a source into the Room PC through
the HT-CALIPSO and the Room PC can view the source along with the camera for
Zoom calls.
HT-VOYAGER
Note: After the HT-CALIPSO is connected to a computer it can be detected by
the system using the following names: Model: HT-CALIPSO
Camera/Speaker/Microphone: HT-CALIPSO-CAM & HT-CALIPSO-SPEAKERPHONE

Key Functions
SCREEN MIRRORING
With screen mirroring support, the HT-CALIPSO allows you to share your mobile
devices’ content wirelessly over AirPlay Mirroring, Miracast, Smart View and
HT-VOYAGER. In this manual, mobile devices available for screen mirroring are
referred to as “screen mirroring sources”, which include Apple devices
(iPhone/iPad/Mac), Android phones, Windows PCs, and HT-VOYAGER.
1. Screen mirroring using AirPlay
Using an iPhone 8 (iOS 15.2) for example: 1. Connect your iPhone to the soft
AP of the device. 2. Soft AP SSID: this should be the same as the device name
which can be obtained from the OSD at the upper right corner of the display
screen. By default, it is set as HT-CALIPSO. 3. Password: this password can be
set through Web UI or Telnet API and can be obtained from the OSD at the
bottom right corner of the display screen. By default, it is set as 12345678.
4. Slide up from the bottom of the iPhone’s screen to show the control center.
Click Screen Mirroring and choose the device name in the pop-up list. 5. HT-
CALIPSO now displays your iPhone’s screen. 6. To disconnect iPhone from the
device: click Stop Mirroring. The display stops displaying your iPhone’s
screen.
Hall Technologies March 30, 2023
Page 13 of 39
2. Screen mirroring using Smart View
For Android mobile (using Samsung Galaxy S9 for example): 1. Enable the Wi-Fi
or WLAN feature of the mobile. 2. Slide down from the top of the screen and
click the Smart View icon in the pop-up interface. 3. The Smart View window
appears and starts to search for Miracast receiver. Click the HT-CALIPSO
device name in the search result and the device will output the mobile screen.
3. Screen mirroring using Miracast
For Windows 10 PC: 1. Enable the WLAN feature of your PC. 2. Click the icon on
bottom right of the screen to open Action Center.
Hall Technologies March 30, 2023
Page 14 of 39
3. Click Connect. 4. Click the HT-CALIPSO device name in the
search results. 5. The HT-CALIPSO device displays the PC’s
content once your PC is connected to the device successfully. 6. To disconnect
PC from the device: click Disconnect.
Note: The icon and interface of the Miracast function may vary on different
computers. Some Windows 10 computers may fail to perform screen mirroring with
Miracast due to
compatibility issues.
Tip: Both the AirPlay mirroring and Miracast support access code. If you see
the PIN entry window appears on your devices, input the access code which can
be obtained through OSD. (See “OSD” section for more information.)
Hall Technologies March 30, 2023
Page 15 of 39
4. Screen mirroring using HT-VOYAGER
HT-VOYAGER allows you to share your laptop’s content on the display screen
without installing any additional software. Simply plug in the HT-VOYAGER into
USB-C and click the button. For more information, see the user guide of HT-
VOYAGER.
Steps to share laptop’s screen on the display using HT-VOYAGER: 1. Pair the
HT-VOYAGER with HT-CALIPSO. Connect the HT-VOYAGER to the PAIRING port of the
HT-CALIPSO for pairing. Once pairing is completed, “Pairing successful”
appears on the display screen. (This will take around 20 seconds to complete.)
2. Connect the HT-VOYAGER to a laptop. The HT-VOYAGER will start running when
connected into a laptop and will automatically connect to the switcher’s soft
AP. Once the HT-VOYAGER connects to the HT-CALIPSO successfully, the HT-
VOYAGER LED stops blinking and will be solid white. 3. To mirror the laptop,
press the HT-VOYAGER’s projecting button. To display the laptop’s screen in
full screen, press and hold the button for at least 5 seconds.

GUIDE SCREEN
The device uses a Guide Screen to convey the basic connection instructions for
users. The Guide Screen can be personalized to allow custom connection
instructions on the device’s Web UI page. When all video sources are
disconnected from the device, the following Guide Screen appears on the
display screen automatically:

Note: · This Guide Screen picture can be changed through the Web UI setting.
Please refer to Guide Screen
section for more information. · By default, if the Guide Screen is being
displayed for 60 seconds with no wireless casting connectivity,
a countdown timer with the time period of 60 seconds will appear. The Guide
Screen is accessible in the following cases:
· Automatic switching: by disconnecting all video sources from the switcher,
the Guide Screen appears automatically.
· Manual switching: è Through Web UI page. For more information, see State &
Switch section. è Send API command through telnet to the switcher to show the
Guide Screen. For more information, see the separate HT-CALIPSO API
documentation.

OSD
The switcher supports OSD (On Screen Display) to convey device basic
information, including the video source’s information, access code, device
name, IP address, and Wi-Fi password. The following is an example of OSD.
Note: · When the switcher outputs the Guide Screen, the OSD will be displayed
continuously until the
countdown timer reaches zero. · When the device outputs video input sources,
the OSD will be displayed for 10 seconds and then will
disappear. · By default, the access code is set as blank, and therefore the
OSD doesn’t display the access code. If
you want to set access code, please see BYOD section for more information.

Web GUI
The Web UI designed for the HT-CALIPSO allows for basic controls and device
settings. This Web UI can be accessed through a modern browser, e.g., Chrome,
Safari, Firefox, IE10+, etc.
To get access the Web UI: 1. Connect the LAN port of the switcher to a local
area network. Ensure there’s a DHCP server in the
network so that the device can obtain a valid IP address. (If there is no DHCP
server the video bar will revert to a 169.254.x.x address which you can find
on the OSD. Use this to change the video bar IP to a static IP address and set
your own.) 2. Connect the PC to the same network as the video bar. 3. Input
the video bar’s IP address in the browser and press Enter, the following
window pops up. (See OSD section to easily view the IP address)
