Only change these settings if you understand networking. Here you can configure the
ClickShare WiFi network to work smoothly within the client environment. It allow for a number
of compatibility and security settings. These setting should be determined in cooperation with
the client IT department.
Best practices to consider are:
✓Change the SSID to a client based ID
✓Make the SSID invisible so that the ClickShare unit is not visible in the WiFi spectrum
✓Specify the Frequency Band (2.4 or 5GHz) and the WiFi channel if needed in order to
exist compatibly within WiFi rich corporate environments.
Setup Tab -> Wallpaper
Upload, select and manage wallpaper. This is the background screen that shows when no
computer is displaying. The Wallpaper image format must be JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF or
TIFF. The maximum file size per uploaded file is 2MB and the image should be the same
resolution as the display (IE: 1920 X 1080 @ 72 dpi)
Setup Tab -> Basic
You have three text fields that will display on the WallPaper page. You can use these for room ID
such as Department, Room name, Help extension#. You can also change the system language.

Display Setting:
Here you can manually select the resolution of the display from a dropdown list or set custom.

ClickShare Base Unit mutes the video output to the display. The video out is reactivated as soon
as someone clicks a Button.

updated if needed and paired with the Base Unit. The progress window will confirm when the Button
