Adding and Connecting Nasos
Preparation
What you will need
- An active Biamp Workplace account with an active administrator role in the Workplace organization you will be adding and connecting Naso devices in.
- An NFC-enabled mobile phone with the Biamp Workplace Booking mobile app installed on it.
- Near Field Communications is a common feature in major mobile phone brands. Lists of NFC-enabled devices can be found online.
- We recommend bringing a laptop with Biamp Workplace on it for viewing the administration console of the organization you will be adding Nasos to. Specifically to verify the connection on the admin side.
- Rooms should already be listed in the organization as resources in Biamp Workplace. You will be connecting each of those organization Room resources to the hardware Naso devices to link them in the system.
You must be on site
Adding Naso room manager devices to your organization and connecting them to Room resources in the system must take place onsite where the Naso devices are installed.
Adding and connecting
1. Plug in the Naso if it is not already powered. The Naso can be powered either with an AC adapter or by power of Ethernet (PoE).
- The Naso will boot to a Setup screen.
2. Open the Biamp Workplace Booking app on your NFC-enabled phone.
3. Sign into the app using your Biamp Workplace account.
4. Once logged into the app, select the organization you will be adding the Keelos devices and any Naso room manager devices. This will take you to the the booking calendar screen.
- Please see Adding and Connecting Nasos for adding room manger devices to the system.
5. On the booking calendar screen, tap the my profile icon. This is the small circle in the top right of the screen and may contain your initials.
6. On your profile, scroll down to and tap Device setup.
7. Select Naso Room Manager.
8. Select either WiFi or Ethernet for the network type the Naso will be be connected to the Workplace organization.
9. WiFi networks only only — Enter the sign in credentials for the WiFi network the Naso will use for connecting to the organization. Then tap Save and after that Continue. This will take you to the Resource page.
- The app will transmit the credentials to the Kleeo during a future step.
- Please note: The Network Name and Password are case sensitive.
10. On the Resource page, Select select the desk on the organization resources screen that you want to link to the Kleeo device.
- In the visual example below we will be connecting the Workplace room resource "Lecture Hall" to a Naso.
11. Place your phone on the near to the Naso's RFID reader. The reader location is indicated on the Naso by a mobile phone icon and arrow.
When the phone is close enough, app will show "Ready to Scan".
An active Connecting screen will appear once the device acknowledges the hand shake.
The Booking app will indicate a successful connection and Naso activation.
After a few moments, the Naso will power cycle, reboot, and show a booking display with the name of the room at the top of the screen.
- In this example, "Lecture Hall".
11. Check the Management and Monitoring page in the Workplace administration console of your organization. The device should now be listed on the Devices pane.
12. Repeat the procedure for additional Room resources that need to be connected to Naso devices.
