AirMedia Presentation Gateway Deployment Guide

Introduction

The AirMedia®Presentation Gateway (AM-100 and AM-101) allows users to present their content via projectors

and displays using the existing IT infrastructure without connecting wires. It is a small network device with a single

10/100 mbps Ethernet port. Because of its reliance on Ethernet, AirMedia has been designed with the IT

professional in mind and includes many features to ease deployment.

Windows®and OS X®software users can share their desktop by running a small application (no installation

required). iOS®and AndroidTM software users can share Excel® spreadsheets, Word documents, PowerPoint®

presentations, PDF les, photos, and other content by using the free application available from the App Store® and

in the Google PlayTM retail stores.

NOTE: Android users can share their full screen from the PinPointTM App.

This deployment guide provides information on AirMedia operation, user access, security, and control systems.

For more detailed information on the AM-100 and AM-101 devices, refer to the AM-100 Operations Guide

(Doc 7463), AM-100 Quickstart Guide (Doc 7464), AM-101 DO Guide (Doc 7930), and AM-101 Supplemental Guide

(Doc 7918) at www.crestron.com/manuals.

User Experience

On-Screen Display

AirMedia uses an on-screen display to convey the basic connection instructions for guest access. The display can

be personalized to allow custom login instructions and branding. It provides the hostname, IP address (optional),

and login code for the specic AirMedia device.

A login code is provided to help prevent users from accidentally connecting to an unintended device. The user

begins the connection process and is prompted to enter a code in the Login window. The code is only four digits,

so it is easy for the user to enter while still preventing unwanted presentations.

There are three modes of operation:

1. Disabled: A login code is not required.

2. Random: A login code is generated after the last user disconnects.

3. Fixed: A login code is set using the web administration pages (static) or using a control system to update

programmatically.

Connecting to AirMedia

There are two ways to connect to the AirMedia device using a PC:

1. Guest Application: Connect to AirMedia using either the Windows or the OS X guest application. The guest

application is downloadable from the AirMedia device.

2. Deployable Application: Access the deployable stand-alone application at www.crestron.com/airmedia.

The guest and installed applications are compatible with the operating systems shown below.

Operating System Versions Supported

Windows Windows XP®, Windows Vista®, Windows 7, and Windows 8 operating systems

OS X 10.5 and newer

Guest Application

The guest application is a small downloadable application that runs with standard user permissions. The IP

address of the AirMedia device is encoded in the lename of the application. The user may save the application

locally, which allows for direct connection to the device the next time the application is accessed.

To access the guest application from the AirMedia Welcome window, complete the steps below:

Connected Device Displaying AirMedia Welcome Window

1. Open a web browser and enter the user's IP address or hostname into the browser. The AirMedia

Download window opens.

2. Download the applicable AirMedia software (either client for Windows or client for Mac® computer).

• A small application is downloaded; the user runs the application.

• If prompted, enter the login code.

The session begins. The user’s desktop is shown on the on-screen display.

AirMedia Download Window

AirMedia Presentation Gateway Deployment Guide

Guest Application Executable

The guest application can be downloaded and saved for custom deployments, such as to websites or other media.

The connection parameters for the guest application are embedded in the le name. The format is as follows:

<any_text>_.<ip_address>.exe.

NOTE: The underscore anddot must precede the IP address. Refer to the following example:

executive_conference_room_.10.1.1.13.exe.

Deployable (Installed) Application

A deployable stand-alone application can be deployed to users’ computers across the enterprise. This application

allows other types of connections to the AirMedia device and has no registry requirements. The application can

be silently deployed as a group of les to a folder on the users' computers. The enterprise application can be

downloaded at www.crestron.com/airmedia.

Managing the rooms in which AirMedia is installed can be a signicant task. There may be multiple campuses or

rooms that only certain employees can access. To address the various deployment scenarios, AirMedia has four

methods to access the connection parameters of a room.

1. Room Lists: The AirMedia client application reads the XML le containing a list of rooms and presents

them in a searchable list as shown in the Available Remote Box List window.

Available Remote Box List Window

2. File Association: The AirMedia client application is associated with .present les. These les can be

embedded in meeting invites or hosted on a corporate website.

3. Discovery: If the AirMedia devices and the user’s computer are on the same subnet, the AirMedia client

application locates these devices and presents them to the user. This method is recommended if a room

list or .present le is not used.

4. Manual Entry: AirMedia allows the user to enter the hostname or IP address of the device.

Room Lists

The application reads a list of devices and populates the connection dialog. A search box is provided to locate

devices in long room lists. To connect using a room list, complete the steps below:

1. Launch AirMedia.

2. From the Available Remote Box List window, select the room from the list of devices.

Available Remote Box List Window

3. Click Connect.

• If prompted, enter the login code.

• If a Crestron Connected®display is used, the display turns on automatically.

• The session begins.

4. Create two les: cong.ini and XML.

• The cong.ini le provides the location of the list of rooms (XML le) to the AirMedia application. This le

must be in a xed location. For more information, refer to Conguration File section below.

• The XML le should contain the list of AirMedia devices. For more information, refer to the "Device List

File (XML le)" on page 7.

Conﬁguration File (conﬁg.ini)

Crestron® software uses the common repository for user specic data on Windows and OS X to store its cong.

ini le. Windows refers to this as the application data folder, and it can be accessed by the environmental variable

%APPDATA%. For OS X, the preferences are stored in the user’s home directory under Application Support. For

both operating systems, the conguration le must be located within Crestron\AirMedia in the common repository.

Examples of typical user directory locations (which vary) for Windows 8 and OS X are shown below:

User Name: TestUser

Windows 8: C:\Users\TestUser\AppData\Roaming\Crestron\AirMedia

OS X 10.8.6: /Users/TestUser/Library/Application Support/Crestron/AirMedia/Congure

After the folder is created, the conguration le must be created. The cong.ini le contains the location of the

room list le. The le contains two items: the section Crestron and the key XMLPath. An example of a cong.ini le

is shown below.

[Crestron]

XMLPath=M:\cong\airmedia\room_list.xml

When the AirMedia application starts, it attempts to read the le at the location specied by the XMLPath. Local

and network paths are allowed. Do not enclose the path in quotes. Environmental variables are not supported.
