Room Scheduling System • Panel Overview 7
Panel Overview
This section summarizes how to operate the scheduling system from the distributed
scheduling panels. It is presumed that you have installed and configured the Extron Room
Agent software and the desired calendar server. See the following sections if necessary:
• Room Agent Installation and Configuration beginning on page 11
• Ad Astra Setup (see page 41)
• CollegeNET 25Live Setup (see page 44)
• EMS Setup (see page 46)
• Google Calendar Setup (see page 55)
• Microsoft Exchange Setup (see page 61)
• Microsoft Office 365 Setup (see page 70)
• Rendezvous by NFS Setup (see page 79)
Overview
Once the system is installed and configured, you can use a scheduling panel (see figure 3)
to check the availability of the associated room and to reserve a room now or in the future.
The display is highly customizable with the Room Agent software (see Layout tab on
page 26), so your panels may not exactly resemble the sample displays shown below.
