You can intuitively share your computer screen during a Microsoft Teams meeting using AllSync on the Aspen 4 MTR Bundle. This way, everyone can see the same things you see, whether they’re in the room or remote.
These instructions are specifically for the Aspen 4 MTR Bundle. Any of the i3CONNECT displays can be used with a Microsoft Teams Rooms camera, but instructions are different. See this article for general MTR use.

Make sure your computer is on the same WiFi network as the Aspen 4 MTR Bundle.

Once sharing: using the audience screen
A pop-up showing a miniature version of the Teams call will appear above your screen.
