Enabling RightSight 2 on Google Meet Devices

The CollabOS 1.5 release brings with it RightSight 2 and Speaker View (more information here). CollabOS 1.5 and Speaker View is compatible with Google Meet room kits but cannot be configured via Google Admin panel nor the in-room Tap touchscreen yet. If RightSight 2 functionality is desired, it is recommended this procedure be completed during initial setup of the room kit.

This article covers the process of upgrading the Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini to CollabOS 1.5, enabling and configuring Speaker View, and utilizing Speaker View within Google Meet.

What you need to get started:

1. Google Meet room kit with Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini, including:
1. Logitech Rally Bar or Rally Bar Mini
2. Logitech Tap
3. Google Meet Compute device
2. (for method #1) Logitech Sync Portal account
3. (for method #2) PC or Mac device with Logitech Sync installed

1. Using Logitech device settings and Sync Portal

1. Initialize the Google Meet room kit using the standard setup procedure (see the Room Solutions Configuration Guide for more information). 
2. Connect an external display to the “HDMI-OUT 1” port on the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini. 
3. The device should begin BYOD setup and the output will be present on the external display. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini in BYOD mode.
4. Once the device has been setup, on the remote control that came with the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini, press the “End Call” button for five seconds to access the Logitech device settings screen. For more information see this article.
5. Select “Sync Portal” and proceed to login with your Logitech Sync Portal information. Return to the main settings screen.
6. Select “Updates” and scan for updates. Apply the latest update of CollabOS 1.5 or later.
7. Once the update is complete, return to the Logitech device settings menu. Select Camera. Choose to enable RightSight 2, Speaker View and/or Picture in Picture view. See this article, section 1 for more information.
8. Unplug the external display from the HDMI-OUT 1 port of the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini. Unplug and replug the power cable from the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini to power cycle it so that it is recognized by the Meet Compute.
9. Begin using Google Meet with the RightSight 2 features enabled as configured. 
10. Later on, the RightSight 2 settings can be configured by re-attaching an external display to the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini and walking through Logitech device settings. Alternatively, this can be set using Sync Portal if the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini retains its network connection. See this article, section 2 for more information.

1. Initialize the Google Meet room kit using the standard setup procedure (see the Room Solutions Configuration Guide for more information). 
2. On the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini, connect the USB-C cable from the device to a PC or Mac that has Logitech Sync installed and running.
3. After Sync identifies the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini, select it from the list on the left.
4. Select the three dot icon and choose “Check for Device Update”.
5. Perform the device update on the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini.
6. After the update has completed, select the “Video” option under the device’s name.

8. When you are finished, unplug the USB-C cable from the PC or Mac and re-attach it to the Meet Compute system. 
9. Begin using Google Meet with the RightSight 2 features enabled as configured.
10. Later on, the RightSight 2 settings can be configured by re-attaching the PC or Mac to the Rally Bar/Rally Bar Mini and using Sync to manage the feature.
