# Launching the application for the first time

# Launching TrueConf Room

Once TrueConf Room has been launched, the main screen will fill the entire desktop, overlaying other applications.

If TrueConf Room is installed on a PC with multiple monitor setup, you can move the main screen to one of the connected monitors. To do it, right-click the program icon in the taskbar and select the monitor in the Display menu item.

If, in addition to the main display, the PC with the endpoint is connected to a USB touch panel (or the touch panel is integrated), you need to configure it during installation without using switching in the OS taskbar.

To close or minimize the window, use the hotkey adopted in your OS.

When the main screen is closed, the TrueConf Room control panel also stops functioning.

# Logging in to the control panel

You can use one of the following options to enter the TrueConf Room control panel from your device:

  • Using a QR code. Scan a QR code with your smartphone or tablet camera. It contains an encoded link to enter the control panel. Follow this link.

  • Using a browser. You can find the access link next to the QR code. To enter the control panel, simply click on it or enter it into your browser.

If the link or QR code is not displayed on the main screen, please contact your administrator and ask to provide you with access to the control panel.

# Authorization with the help of AD FS

AD FS (Active Directory Federation Service) provides federated identity and access management by sharing data and access rights in a secure way. AD FS opens up new opportunities for using single sign-on technologies available within a unified system or corporate network. With AD FS one can simplify user access to web applications.
