# 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.

-   Users can end the session early by clicking “End Session” and entering the PIN. 

## **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.
