2 Understanding Huddle Hub
2.1 Rooms, Sessions and Roles
Rooms and Sessions
For our purposes, a session is the sitting together of a group of people, with the intent of either making or
assisting to a presentation, or to perform a video-conference.
A session happens in a room which usually corresponds to a physical place where the HHO unit is plugged
to peripherals (TV and webcam) and the participants meet.
Each room is identified by a name, that can be set to match a specific place (e.g. "Main meeting room", "1st
floor huddle room" etc.) or a group of users it ' s reserved for (e.g. "Marketing dept.", "IT Demo", etc.) or any
other criteria that meets your needs.
A session starts when the first participant connects to a room, and ends when the last participant closes
his connection.
The following example portraits the situation of a company that has two HHO units:
· HHO Ground Floor
o Huddle room 1
· HHO First Floor
o Board room
Passcode
Sessions can be protected with a passcode , which ensures the privacy of your meeting. The passcode is
a 4 digits random number, generated when the session starts, that is visible on the TV screen or in the
toolbar of the participant that started the session or in the one of the participants that already j oined it.
Passcode protection can be disabled.
Roles
During a session, we identify the following roles :
· Participant : anyone who is connected to the session.
· Presenter : any participant who is currently sharing his/her screen with the other participants.
· Viewer : any participant who is receiving the presenters ' screen.
· Host : we call "host" the presenter that starts a video-conference using the Wireless Camera, thus
sharing the VC software screen with the other participants.

Page 6 Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
2.2 TV, Touch Screen, Wireless Webcam
TV Sets and Projectors
In a typical scenario, your HHO unit will be installed in a meeting room, huddle room or another shared
space, and will be connected to a large TV set with an HDMI cable . Switch on your HHO and your TV
and you will see the Welcome Screen , which contains instructions about connecting to that room and
about accessing the session. This Welcome Screen can be customized.
Touch Screen
HHO can be used together with a touch screen, replacing a common HDMI display. In this case, when the
USB out of the touch screen is connected to the USB port of the HHO, the touch surface can be used to
annotate over the presentation and the annotation layer is streamed to the connected participants
devices.
Wireless C amera
HHO can also connect a USB Webcam . The HHO unit will make this webcam available to the HHApp
clients or browser connected to the room, through a virtual camera driver, with no need of any cable.
2.3 Reaching a Room
Whether you want to present your screen to the other participants, or to receive their presentation on your
device, you have to connect to a room . To achieve this, you have to:
1. Connect your device to the same network HHO is connected to.
2 . Select the room you want to use for your presentation.
N et w or k connection
The network to use can be either the company L AN or HHO+ embedded access point ( HHO+ only ).
LAN connection
The task of installing and configuring HHO to make it visible to all users on the L AN is your Network
Administrator’s responsibility. Under this configuration, your device will be able to access HHO through the
standard network configurations you already use to access your company L AN, and when you start your
HHApp, you will see a list of all the available rooms associated with the connected HHO units.
Warning : Although HHO and devices are properly configured to access the same LAN, in complex network
configurations you may experience problem in reaching the active rooms. If this happens, contact your
network administrator or consult the Configuration Guide.

Page 7 Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
Embedded Access Point connection ( HHO+ only )
Y ou can directly connect to your HHO+ unit, provided that you are in the range of its embedded Wi-Fi
access point and that it ' s been configured to allow such a connection. To do so, on your device select the
Wi-Fi name (SSID) of the HHO+ you want to connect to. By default, the SSID is "huddlehub" and the
password is "huddlehub", but they may have been changed (recommended ! ). Ask your Network
Administrator for the HHO+ Wi-Fi credentials .
Using this approach, you can reach only the room that belong to the HHO+ unit you are directly connected
to.
Mixed connection ( HHO+ only )
Both the methods described above can be used at the same time, and any session may have participants
connected either ways.
D isco v erin g the room to connect to
Automatic Discovery Service
If both HHO and your device have been properly configured, at its start HHApp will show the list of the
available rooms. This list is prepared and presented to you through a network discovery service . When
the service is enabled (and allowed by local network configurations), HHApp can automatically search for
HHO rooms on the network.
Manual Search
In some network configurations, the automatic discovery service may not be able to reach all the HHO
units and show all their available rooms. For these cases, HHApp offer a Find Rooms function, that you
can use to reach the rooms through the IP addresses of the HHO units that hosts them (see next chapter
about finding the IP address of a HHO unit).
2.4 F inding the I P address of a HHO unit
There are cases when you need to know the IP address your HHO unit:
· to download HHApp from the unit ;
· to configure HHO unit with its Web Console ;
· to attend a session using your web browser ;
· to connect to a room that cannot be reached through the discovery service .
When HHO is connected to the company L AN, its IP address is either dynamically assigned by the DHCP
server of the network or statically assigned during its configuration.
· If the unit is connected to a TV or a monitor, and no presentation is in progress, you can read its IP
address on the welcome screen. HHO+ units may have two IP addresses: one for the wired connection

Page 8 Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
and one for their embedded Wi-Fi network adapter.
· If other participants already entered that room, you can ask them to read the IP address they are
connected to ( ⁝ > Settings > Room info ).
· If none of the previous methods is possible, you have to contact your Network Administrator to get the
IP address of the HHO unit you want to connect to.
2.5 Capabilities and P erformances
HHO is capable of amazing performances. However, what you are actually able to do with it depends on
the unit type, on its configuration, on the IT infrastructure it ' s inserted into, and on the performances of the
computer and devices used as clients.

3 Connecting to the Web Console
The tool you use to configure your HHO unit is the Web Console , accessible using any common web
browser, like Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox and many others. From the Web Console, you can manage
every parameter of your HHO.
To use the Web Console you have to connect to the HHO unit you want to configure.
Before you start your first HHO connection and configuration, we recommend that you read the Network
Security Guide , that contains important information about the secure deployment of HHO and HHO+
units.
3.1 Connect v ia E thernet Interface
To access your HHO through its Ethernet interface, the unit must be switched on and connected to the
company L AN using an Ethernet cable. For security reasons, during your first configuration you should
configure your HHO unit using a standalone network: a network that is not connected to your corporate
network (see Huddle Hub One Network Security Guide).
1. Connect HHO to the network by plugging its Ethernet connector.
2 . Switch the unit on.
3 . HHO ships with Ethernet interface and DHCP enabled, so the unit will receive an IP address. The IP
address of HHO depends on your company L AN address family (e.g. 1 92 .1 68 .1.x), on your DHCP server
and in general on your network configuration.
4. Get the IP address of the HHO unit, either attaching an HDMI display to its port (the IP address appears
in the welcome screen) or using a network tool to discover which IP address it’s been assigned (see
also Finding the IP address of a HHO unit ).
5 . Type the IP address in a web browser and access the Web Console of your HHO unit. Both HTTP and
HTTPS connections are available ; for security reasons HTTPS is the suggested mode.
3.2 Connect v ia Wireless Interface ( HHO + onl y)
Y ou can access the Web Console using a wireless direct connection to the Wi-Fi network of your HHO+. To
ensure maximum security, during your initial configuration you should configure your HHO+ unit without
connecting it to your corporate network (see Huddle Hub One Network Security Guide).
1. Move to the room where HHO+ has been installed and make sure the unit is switched on.
2 . Open the wireless network selection screen on your device and connect it to HHO+ network. The
factory default parameters are:
§ SSID: huddlehub
§ Security: WPA 2
§ Password: huddlehub
§ Wi-Fi band: 5 GHz
7

Page 10Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
3 . Once connected to the wireless network of HHO+, get its IP address, either attaching an HDMI display
to its port (the IP address appears in the welcome screen) or using a network tool to discover which IP
address it’s been assigned. The default IP address of HHO+ on its own wireless network is 10. 3 . 2 .1, but
it may have been changed by a previous configuration (see also Finding the IP address of a HHO
unit ).
4. Type the IP address in a web browser and access the Web Console of your HHO+ unit. Both HTTP and
HTTPS connections are available ; for security reasons HTTPS is the suggested mode.
7

Page 11Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
4 Using the Web Console
When you know the IP address of the HHO unit you want to configure, you have to type it in the address
bar of your browser, and press Enter.
To enter the Web Console, click the three-dots menu on the top right of the page and select the Admin
item. Y ou need to type the administration password in the login dialog:
The factory default password is “ admin ” .
Tip : for security reasons, changing the administration password should be your very first configuration
task.
The Web Console has three areas: Sidebar , Top bar and Body :
Side b ar
At the top of the sidebar, you find a link with the name of the Huddle Hub you are connected to. Below it,
the list of the configuration sections. Each link takes you to the pages where you can change the
corresponding group of parameters:
Huddle Hub - general parameters.
Room - room name and protection.

Page 12Huddle Hub Configuration Guide
Welcome screen - details for the customization of the welcome page showed when the system is idle,
with no presentation running.
Webcam - audio/video USB devices configuration.
TV - settings of the connected HDMI display/pro j ector output.
Network - Ethernet and WiFi (HHO+ only) configuration.
Update - update strategy settings.
Advanced - advanced parameters.
System Status - a read-only page that recaps all the information.
At the bottom of the Sidebar you find four links:
Stop sessions - This link is visible only if there is at least one session in progress. When clicked, it closes
the sessions and disconnects the participants. A dialog asks you to confirm (or cancel) the operation.
Reboot - This link asks for a confirmation and then reboots HHO. This operation has the same effect as
turning off and on the device using the power button. The Reboot procedure closes the current session
and disconnects all the users connected to HHO.
Logout - It disconnects you from the Web Console and brings you back to the login page.
Help - The question mark at the bottom is a link to HRT ' s support page (which opens in a new tab of your
browser).
To p b ar
Some configuration section has two or more pages, use the Top bar to navigate through them.
B od y
It contains the parameters to examine or configure. In the pages that allow changing the values, you find
three buttons at the bottom:
Apply - It saves the changes. Some modifications affect the possibility to access the Web Console (for
example, if the connection is through the Wi-Fi network and you disable the Wi-Fi interface of HHO+). For
this reason, when you apply the changes with the Apply button, the system shows the instructions to
access the console again and confirm the changes.
Cancel - This button discards the changes.
Default - It loads the factory defaults of the current configuration section, when available.
The Body can contain other section-specific buttons, which will be explained in the following chapters.
