This is the main screen the Microsoft Teams Room will display while not in use. From here you can access many of the room’s features.
When meetings are scheduled for the room, they will be listed on the home screen.
To join your scheduled meeting simply tap the join button.
You can also join the meeting whilst in the room from your laptop or mobile phone if you want to present or access meeting chat.
Microsoft Teams Rooms on both Windows and Android support a fast, wireless way to bring your meeting to the room using the QR code displayed on the home screen. This eliminates the need for Bluetooth pairing or plugging in your device, making it easier to connect on the fly.
The QR code is always visible on the room’s main screen by default and refreshes every 60 seconds to ensure security. Once scanned with your phone’s camera, you’ll be prompted to take one of the following actions:
Join a meeting currently in progress or one scheduled to begin within 10 minutes
Start a new ad-hoc meeting directly from your device
Cast content from your mobile device to the front-of-room display
If the Microsoft Teams mobile app isn’t installed, you’ll be prompted to download it after scanning the code.
This functionality is available on all Teams Rooms licenses and works across both Windows and Android-based room systems. It also supports external meetings when your organization’s Teams policies allow for it.

You’ll be prompted to choose how to share your content. All content is shared wirelessly from your laptop or personal device using the Microsoft Teams desktop application or by scanning the QR code shown on the touch panel and flat panel screens.

Every teams Meeting has a unique 12-digit ID.
Another way to join a meeting from the room is to add the meeting ID.
You will find the meeting ID and passcode in your Outlook Calendar invite.
If you have a meeting set up in your calendar, or on your device, but the room hasn’t been invited already, you can add the room from your laptop or mobile device.
If you press the “More” button a new page will open which lets you restart the device, access settings and report a fault.
You might also want to join the meeting from your own device to share content or view participants on your device while content is shown on the room display.
When joining from your device, select Don’t Use Audio so you join completely muted with sound off.
If you need to use the room’s speakers and microphones, select Room Audio instead.
Important: If you are connected to the meeting from both the room system and your personal device, all audio on your personal device must be fully muted — both microphone and speakers — to prevent echo or feedback.
Here’s a quick overview of the controls available when you are in a meeting.
You can select from multiple layouts in your meeting.
The available layouts will be selectable depending on your room’s licensing, display format, number of attendees and whether content is being presented.
