Understanding the Room/Desk Display Link in MyPC Cloud

Purpose of the Display Link 

  • The Room/Desk display link serves two primary purposes: 
    • Status Display: It shows the status (availability) of a room or desk. 
    • Check-In Functionality: Users can check in to their bookings using the link or scanning the QR code. 
  • To access the display for the room/desk: 
    • The Display link or QR code for each room or desk can be found in  

Admin > Room > Display Link or Admin > Desks > Display link

Authenticated vs. Unauthenticated 

  • The display link can work in two modes: 
    • Unauthenticated 
      • When using a tablet outside a room or near a desk, users can continue without logging in. 
      • The display will show room/desk availability and upcoming bookings (usually up to 2 future bookings). 
    • Authenticated 
      • Users can scan the QR code on their personal mobile devices. 
      • They’ll have the option to continue without login or authenticate. 
      • Authenticating allows for additional features (e.g., contactless check-in). 
  • When you run the link, it will ask you login or continue unauthenticated.

Contactless Check-In 

  • To enable contactless check-in: 
  • Place the QR code next to the display screen. 
  • Users scan the QR code on their personal devices. 
  • They can continue without login or authenticate. 
  • Clicking “Check In” automatically checks them in (no need to enter a PIN).

Ending a Session Early (Contactless) 

  • Users can also end a session early from their personal device: 
    • Scan the QR code again (credentials should be remembered). 
    • Click “End Session” without requiring a PIN. 

Identifying Logged-In Status 

  • Look at the top left corner of the display: 
    • If it shows a first name, last name, and email, the display is logged in.
