3 Configuring your ASUS Google Meet hardware kit
Before you begin using your device for video conferencing Setup requirements Room size and setup Your Meet hardware kit system is designed for a conference room of up to 13 persons. We recommend a room that contains either a long table with the monitor at one end (optimal), or a round table. We do not recommend using Meet Compute System with rooms set up in a classroom style.
For Standard definition (SD) video quality • Latency should be less than 100 ms when pinging Google’s public DNS server at 8.8.8.8. • Outbound signals from a participant in all situations must meet a 1 Mbps bandwidth requirement. • Inbound signals depend on the number of participants: - 1 Mbps with 2 participants - 1.5 Mbps with 5 participants - 2 Mbps with 10 participants Space requirements • For the Meet Compute System device, you must have a 40 mm x 250 mm x 180 mm / 1.57 in. x 9.84 in. x 7.08 in.
Speakermic placement The optimal speakermic placement is up to 1.5 meters from all participants, but may also depend on the size and layout of the conference room. For rooms where participants sit at one end of the room facing the display, we recommend placing the speakermic at the end of the table closest to the Meet Compute System and the display.
Setup your system You can mount your Meet Compute System to the wall mounting plate or mount the Meet Compute System to the standing mount. WARNING! • Pulling or pushing on the Meet Compute System may cause the device to fall. • Do not install your mount kit while your Meet Compute System is turned on. This may cause personal injuries or damage the system. NOTE: The bundled items may vary between models. The wall mounting plate and standing mount may not be included.
1. Secure the wall mount to a wall using the four (4) screws. NOTE: The screws are self tapping M3.5 24 mm long, flat countersunk head type screws. 2. Locate the mount pad slot on the bottom of your device and orientate it as shown in the illustration below so that the exhaust air vents face upwards. NOTE: Please refer to Chapter 1 Getting to know your Meet Compute System for more information on the location of the exhaust air vents.
3. Your device will be held in place magnetically to the standing mount. Please ensure the mount pad slots are aligned with the wall mount before placing the device onto the wall mount plate. NOTE: Please refer to Chapter 1 Getting to know your Meet Compute System for more information on the location of the mount pad slots. 4. Manually adjust your device if needed for a more secure fit.
Using the standing mount To attach your Meet Compute System to the bundled standing mount, please follow the steps below: 1. Locate the mount pad slot on the bottom of your device and orientate it as shown in the illustration below so that the exhaust air vents faces upwards. NOTE: Please refer to Chapter 1 Getting to know your Meet Compute System for more information on the location of the exhaust air vents.
2. Align your device’s mount pad slot to the standing mount, then bring the device closer to the mount. Your device will be magnetized and attach onto the standing mount. 3. Manually adjust your device if needed for a more secure fit.
