This is used by Ascentae to commission your project, or for ad-hoc assistance with a support ticket regarding an existing portal. Please click on each section below to go through the steps.  1. Important Information If Ascentae is commissioning your portal, permissions must be provided by an administrator from the end-users side in order for us to access your portal. You'll provide us with a temporary login.  Full admin rights must be permitted. We'll cover this later.  It is your responsibility to grant AND revoke Ascentae access to your portal.  2. Your GoBright login Information Whoever signed the licensing agreement with GoBright will have received an email from sales@gobright.com with the initial admin login details. This includes: Email address Password Organisation code Ascentae doesn't see your login information, so it's important you follow the next steps. We will never ask for the original login information for your portal! Let's get going... 3. Granting Ascentae Access   Log into your GoBright portal here and navigate to the Admin Centre.

In GoBright, you can already book a desk / parking space on behalf of a colleague. However, since July 2025, you can now do the same for rooms within the GoBright portal. This was previously  only available via Outlook. There is now an all-in-one solution within the GoBright portal.✔ Fully integrated within the portal✔ Free✔ Don't need to leave Teams or switch between apps (if you have the add-on)The StepsOn the main dashboard (Meet-Work-Visit), head to Settings > Users > Roles.Scroll down until you see Other booking-related permissions.By default, this setting is disabled, so enable it:Make sure you save the changes at the top of the page.

Solution Overview Multi-Camera SolutionFlexible meeting spaces require flexibility solutions to maximise performance.  A front facing camera may be suitable for regular meetings, but for presentation or teacher / student interaction, additional AV equipment should be considered. There are a number of solutions on the market which offer camera switching, but these can dramatically increase the price of the solution for minimal additional performance.For many spaces, all that’s required is multiple camera, and the ability to switch between them easily.  The addition of a ReThink AV auto switching matrix allows both the in-room PC and guest laptops to access the AV and simply switch to the desired camera within the UC client (Teams/Zoom etc). For additional ease of use, the matrix can be programmed to switch sources on a keyboard shortcut or integrated into a room control system. Up to 5 USB peripherals can be configured and dual screen output is fully supported to allow maximum performance and flexibility. Optionally, wireless sharing can be integrated with the in-room PC.  We recommend AirServer or Mersive solutions, or for customers who want to use a wireless dongle, the Maxhub WB05 provides wireless sharing without the need to install software or connect to a wifi hotspot.Key Benefits- One-touch join of Microsoft Teams meetings- Easily switch between USB peripherals within your UC client, via keyboard shortcut or via control system- Up to 5 USB peripherals can be installed- Dual screen support- Bring Your Own Meeting support connects screen and peripherals.  Host the meeting on your computer.- Auto switching to your computer as soon as you plug in- Single USB-C connects your computer for video, audio, data and network*.  Plus, it charges your battery!*Wired network connection required to ReThink switch. ·        Core Components-  Dual Maxhub ND65 CMA 65” displays ·        -  Huddly C1 All-in-one camera / mic / speaker system ·        -  Additional cameras (RocWare RC821 shown) ·        -  Additional audio system (if required – Nureva - HDL310 shown) ·       -  ReThink AV MatrixRAV-MS-4x2DLHU-Tx/Rx - ReThink active USB-C cableOptional Components for wireless sharing-  Mersive POD v4- AirServer Connect 3- MAXHUB WB05 + buttonThis example includes dual screens and a MAXHUB XCore Pro MTR.A Huddly C1 is provided for front of room camera and meeting audio.When switching to presenter mode, the RocWare RC821 PTZ camera is mounted at the rear of the room to capture the presenter.A Nureva HDL310 is included to provide whole room audio in presentation mode.A wireless keyboard & mouse are installed to allow quick switching between setups.
