BASIC INSTALLATION SCENARIOS

BASIC INSTALLATION PROCESS

1. Unpack all components.

   a. Select a location for the Devio CR-1 that will minimize the space it utilizes on work surfaces while making it accessible for connection to laptops via USB 3.0 cable. Secure the CR-1 in this location by mounting the included bracket.
   b. Select a location for the Devio DTM-1 that puts it in the center of where conversation will occur. Place the DTM-1 in this location or secure it by mounting the bottom cover onto the work surface.
   c. Connect Devio CR-1 to Devio DTM-1 beamforming microphone using CAT-5 cable with RJ-45 field terminated connectors (supports cable length up to 49.2 feet / 15 meters).
   i. If installing a 2nd DTM-1, connect it to the 1st  DTM-1 (same cable length supported).
   d. Connect Devio CR-1 to user supplied speaker using 18awg speaker cable or RCA cable.
   e. Connect Devio CR-1 to one or two HDMI-equipped displays, with the following considerations:
   i. By default, Devio CR-1 can connect to one HDMIequipped display, supported via HDMI connection from computer to the Devio CR-1
   ii. Optionally, the “Enable USB Video” option allows the Devio CR-1 to connect to up to two HDMI-equipped displays, supported via USB 3.0 connection from computer to the Devio CR-1. This option is enabled in the Devio System Administration Utility (SAU),
   requires DisplayLink USB Graphics Software drivers, which can be installed automatically or manually from http://www.displaylink.com/downloads.
   f. If connecting to a camera for video conferencing, connect Devio CR-1 via back panel USB port (or alternatively a front panel USB port).
   g. Optionally, connect the Devio CR-1 to the network via CAT-5 cable to enable remote monitoring and management.
   h. Connect power supply to Devio CR-1.
   i. Connect power supply to power source.

3.  When front panel Auto Setup LED indicator lights red, press the Auto Setup button on the rear of Devio CR-1.

   b. A series of announcements and sounds will be generated to optimize input and output levels for room acoustics and placement of speaker and microphone.
   c. The LED Auto Setup Status Indicator will illuminate green when successfully completed, or red if an issue is encountered.
   Note
   The LED Microphone Status Indicator will remain off until a computer is connected to the Devio CR-1 via the USB 3.0 cable, in which case it will turn green. If the LED Microphone Status Indicator is red the microphone is not fully connected.

4.  The Devio system is now ready for use.
   a. Using the provided USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-B cable, connect the CR-1 to a computer.
   i. For video, connect CR-1 to computer via usersupplied HDMI cable, or alternatively enable USB Video to allow for video  over USB 3.0 connection
   b. The first connection may take a few minutes as the USB enumeration process discovers and/or installs the required drivers.
   c. Devio will appear as an Echo Cancelling Speakerphone for selection as speaker and microphone in computer audio and web conferencing settings, the computer’s desktop can be mirrored or extended onto HDMI displays, and other USBconnected accessories (like a camera) will be discovered and available to your computer.

6.  Connect to the Devio CR-1 using the SAU via network connection to manage or change settings, including:
   a. Enable USB Video – check this setting to enable HDMI output over USB 3.0. This option requires DisplayLink USB Graphics Software drivers, which can be installed automatically or manually from http://www.displaylink.com/downloads.
   b. Enable Headset Interface – check this setting to enable Devio CR-1 as a speakerphone for a desk phone via headset port connection and to bridge callers directly into soft codec audio conferences. Sidetone should be disabled on the connected
