Requirements


The Quicklaunch Wireless Tablet Remote  is a lightweight web server installed on the conference room computer.  For any device to control the computer, they must be on the same network (wired or wireless) and be able to access the conference room computer web server. Quicklaunch Ultimate Edition with active maintenance is also a requirement. You may also get a Quicklaunch Wireless Tablet Remote  feature key to utilize this feature with other Quicklaunch editions.


Security

The Quicklaunch Wireless Tablet Remote  has a number of levels of security:

  • the console software uses a user-defined authorization token defined in Quicklaunch
  • the conference room computer firewall can be configured as a public network and limit access to the computer


Limitations

  • Due to restrictions in the windows operating system, the mouse and keyboard will not work with any elevated program (i.e. programs "run as administrator").  This also includes with Windows on screen keyboard.  We recommend you use the remote keyboard or the Quicklaunch on-screen keyboard.
