What is Clickshare?
Barco ClickShare lets you wirelessly show your laptop screen or a selected application on a room display.
You can connect with the USB-C ClickShare Button (if available), or the Clickshare Desktop Application.
Before you Connect:
-
Turn on the room display or projector and select the ClickShare input or source.
Note: This is usually an HDMI input. - Confirm that the ClickShare splash screen appears on the room display.
- Confirm you are connected to the Monarch network or Monarch-IoT-Guest network.
- Have your laptop ready. If using the Clickshare app, connect to the campus or room network as instructed for that space.
Option 1: Connect with the ClickShare Button
If your room has a physical ClickShare USB-C button to connect to your unit, please follow the steps below:
Step 1: Connect the Button
Plug the ClickShare Button into a supported USB-C port on your Windows or macOS laptop. Use the appropriate adapter if needed.
Step 2: Wait until it is ready
Allow the ClickShare software to prepare the room connection. The Button light will flash or fill while connecting, then become steady when ready.
Step 3: Start sharing
Press the large center button once. The light changes color and your screen appears on the room display.
Step 4: Stop sharing
Press the button again. Always stop sharing before unplugging the Button from the laptop.
Option 2: Connect with the ClickShare Desktop App
Step 1: Open the app
Open ClickShare from the taskbar, Applications folder, or Start menu. If it is not installed, download the Windows or macOS version from Barco.
Step 2: Select the room
Choose the nearby meeting room. If it is not listed, use Search and enter the room name, ClickShare name (SSID), or IP address shown on the room display.
Step 3: Enter the passcode
If prompted, enter the 4-digit passcode displayed on the room screen.
Step 4: Coose what to share
Select your full desktop to share everything or select one application window to share only that window.
Step 5: Stop or Pause Sharing
Reopen ClickShare from the taskbar or menu bar, then select Stop sharing. Use Pause when you want the room display to temporarily hold the current image.
