Connecting a Computer to the XT Series using Screen Link
About this task
Users can present content from a laptop on an XT Series monitor without connecting it to the XT
Codec Unit, using the Avaya Screen Link feature. If you are also using the XT Series for a
videoconference, the content is shared with all participants of the meeting, both located in the
same room and remote.
Depending on its security configuration, an XT Series endpoint behaves in one of the following
ways when you to connect to it:
• Rejects Screen Link — the endpoint does not allow anyone to connect to it for screen
sharing.
• Requires password — the endpoint generates a one time password that you need to enter
on your laptop to connect to it.
• Seamlessly authenticates Scopia XT Desktop or Avaya Equinox
®
Client and connects
to it
Before you begin
• If you want to present content to local participants only, make sure that the XT Series
endpoint is not currently used for a videoconference. If you are using the endpoint for an
audio-only call, you can share the presentation with participants in the meeting room.
• To present content from your laptop, bring the laptop into a videoconference room equipped
with an XT Series endpoint.
• To display your computer’s content on the XT Series using Avaya Screen Link, your
computer must have an Avaya Equinox
®
or Scopia XT Desktop Client installed and be in the
same network as the endpoint. If the computer and endpoint are in different networks, make
sure there is no NAT or firewall between them.
- For automatic pairing (using proximity sensing), the computer’s speakers must be able to
play audio at up to 19KHz.
- The proximity pairing is designed to work in proximity to the endpoint’s microphone. The
optimal distance is up to 1-1.5 m. The exact distance depends on the type of microphone
pod used (one way or three way) and the computer’s gain levels.
- When automatic proximity does not work, use manual pairing.
