Room Grouping
Room Grouping is optional. Creating a group can alleviate congestion when one device is deemed room grouping a Master and
other devices are Members of its group. The Master will poll the server for updates and members will poll the master device which
enables them to browse schedules of all rooms in a Group. When a room is occupied, users can browse other rooms and schedule a
meeting in any of the rooms in the group.
NOTE:
Core devices must have port 8888 open for in-bound grouping communication to succeed. Otherwise requests will be blocked
by the firewall.
There is a third option for room grouping, None. This option would only be used if the unit isn’t part of a group, typically this would
be a boardroom.
NOTE:
Acendo Core and Acendo Book can be in the same room group, and if they are, they should be part of the same group.
