Recommendations For Driving Jupiter Ultra-wide Screens
Supported DevicesIn order to get best performance from your Jupiter screen, it is important to use devices that are capable of supporting 21:9 resolutions. The Jupiter screen natively supports 5120 x 2160 @ 60Hz (5K60). Lower resolutions are supported and depending on the application can be displayed natively – with black borders – or stretched horizontally and vertically to fill the screen. Refer to the Jupiter user manual for details.The following guidelines are based on testing by Jupiter. They are not intended to provide a comprehensive list of supported devices. Please check the specifications of the devices you intend to use.The Jupiter OPS module is designed to support Jupiter screens at full 5K60 resolution.PC’s with Graphical Processing Units (GPU)Older PC’s with onboard GPU’s over 3 years old will not support 5K resolution, but are likely to support a 4K variation of 21:9 aspect ratios – 3440 x 1440, 3840 x 1620, 2560 x 1080).Newer Intel models (less than 2 years old) support 4K60 and may support 5K30.Models with Nvidia GPU chipsets / software generally support software to create custom resolutions (including 5K60 21:9).Latest Intel models present no issues.Current Intel model computers with on-board GPU’s which support 5K+ monitors:i7 - 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 Processors, Processor Graphics, Intel Iris Xe Graphicsi5 - 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i5 Processors, Processor Graphics Intel UHD Graphics 750i3 - 12th Generation Intel® Core™ 13 Processors, Processor Graphics Intel UHD Graphics 730Separate GPU’sMost newer GPU’s cards should work. Check the specification to ensure it supports 5KNVidea® software and hardware allows custom resolutions to be created should they not be supported by the OS.Apple® GPUsThe newer Apple M1 chip equipped machines have no issues driving 5K resolution monitorsCertain OS builds do not expose the 5120x2160 resolution, despite it being supported. We recommend 3rd party software to set a custom resolution.Other AV Hardware (Extron, Crestron, TvOne, Brightsign etc)None of the AV hardware options we have tested currently support native 5K60 Support for MTR / Zoom Room systemsFront Row support on MTR’s is not dependent on support for 21:9 resolutions, and older generation MTR hardware will only support 16:9 resolutions. If your MTR is older than 2 years, you may only be able to support 21:9 aspect at low resolutions (2560 x 1080).If you are attach a Jupiter screen to an existing MTR, please check the specification to ensure it will support 21:9 resolutions.Latest generation MTR systems should support 21:9. We have tested the Lenovo ThinkSmart Core family which fully support 21:9 at 4K resolution.Zoom have recently added support for 21:9 to their latest software, but please check that your Zoom Room hardware is capable of supporting 21:9 resolutions.Supported CablesHDMI will not support 5K60. Most systems connected via HDMI will support a maximum of 4K60.To get full 5K60 resolution, DisplayPort 1.4 or better is recommended. Where possible, look for DP8K certification to ensure compatibility.USB Type C (Thunderbolt) is also supported for 5K60 and will also provide touch control without the need for a separate cable. However, Thunderbolt cables can generally only be run a maximum of 5m without the requirement for signal boosting. This is generally only recommended for very short cable runs.For longer cable runs, DisplayPort and separate USB-B cable for touch control is recommended.USB Device Pass ThroughThe Jupiter screen includes a USB hub, enabling you to attach USB-A peripherals and signal to pass via the screen to both the internal OPS and any attached PC (external PC connected via USB-C or USB-B).We have thoroughly tested this functionality with Lenovo ThinkSmart Core PC’s (MTR and OEM versions), Huddly cameras and Nureva audio products.

Huddly L1 - Integration Issue With Inogeni Cam230
Huddly L1 – integration with Inogeni Cam230 We have identified an issue with integrating multiple Huddly L1 cameras with the Inogeni Cam230 camera switcher. SymptomsTypically, the Inogeni Cam230 keeps a USB signal active with all attached USB cameras. However, the Huddly L1 camera uses 50% additional USB bandwidth. The upshot is that when 2 Huddly L1 cameras are attached, the Inogeni Cam230 runs out of USB bandwidth and there is no USB signal to the non-active camera.Users may experience issues when switch sources between active / non-active cameras which include frozen image and very long delays between switches.ResolutionInogeni have issued a software patch which has been tested and shown to work in manual switch configurations and when switching is trigged via HDL410 zones.Currently, this software patch is available directly from Inogeni or through Ascentae support.Known limitationsThere is still a slight delay in the transition between active and non-active cameras, however, this is now below 1 second.How to Apply the FixSpeak to Ascentae support and we will guide you through the process.Future EnhancementThis fix will be included in the next version of Inogeni firmware update for the Cam230. This is expected in April 2024.

Early Presence Confirmation
Information correct as of the 16th of September 2024In September, GoBright introduced a new feature called 'Early Presence Confirmation'.For example, if you make a booking on a Monday for the upcoming Friday, your portal can now be configured to prompt the user up to 48 hours before the booking is due to confirm that they still need to use that space. Key Points:This feature is currently only available for desks and parkingThis is not currently available for roomsMaximum notification is 48 hours before the booking is due to startBookings are automatically canceled if no action is taken from the email / push notificationThis is disabled by default and must be switched on. Speak to our tech team or your account manager if you would like us to set this up for youSignificantly increases efficiency of resources for your business The ProcessYou will get an email during the predefined time.For example: If you select 'Yes, I will attend', you will be directed to the GoBright portal: If you select 'No, delete it' you will still be directed to the GoBright portal: Example of a push notification from the GoBright app:If you take no action (ignore the email / push notification), the booking will be automatically canceled and the person who made the booking will receive an email.This means that space will be freed up for someone else to book. This is particularly useful for people who have reoccurring bookings but might be off sick / on annual leave etc. Share This
