ClickShare Conference in combination with Lightware Taurus UCX USB and HDMI Switchers can solve multiple use cases whereby e.g., multiple devices need to use the same USB peripherals, or these devices want to share content to the same display.

In rooms where ClickShare Conference is used as the default way to wirelessly present and conference, but occasionally users want to connect their laptop to either the display and/or the USB peripherals, a Lightware Switcher can be used to automatically trigger the required changes. Recommended switchers for this use case are the Taurus UCX-switchers.

MTR Button up!

This solution provides automatic BYOD or content sharing switchover function for conference rooms. Sources can be connected wirelessly with Barco ClickShare CX-30, CX-50 and CX-50 Gen 2 systems, or can be wired directly to the Lightware Taurus unit.

The wireless switchover is driven by the ClickShare button. The way of switching depends on the call status of the MTR conference system:

When the MTR is out of call, the active source is automatically selected for BYOD type switching (video signal, USB room camera, microphone, speaker) by the LARA logic, according to the parameter settings

When the MTR is in call, the video signal of the active source selected by the logic is switched to the Taurus output connected to the sharing input of the MTR system

The solution can also be used without the MTR conference system, for button driven wireless switchover according to the priorities, set in the Wireless Presenter Switcher module instance for the Barco ClickShare unit and for the other BYOD sources configured.

With the Lightware "MTR Button up!" Solution the ClickShare is connected to a Taurus UCX switcher. In the configuration you need a Conference PC as a hardware codec. If that is Then you will be able to provide the following services to participants:
