Harman was at ISE 2017 to announce new firmware for AMX RoomBook scheduling touch panels, making them part of the new Acendo product family.
The new firmware features usability and setup enhancements that help users ensure installation and accomplish scheduling goals faster, more intuitively and more efficiently.
Acendo Book scheduling touch panels are standalone scheduling panels that integrate directly with room scheduling software like Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, and Google Calendar without additional system software or hardware requirements.
The user interface background colour and built-in room availability bars change between red and green to show room availability, enabling users to locate and book an available room directly from the panel. If that room is currently booked, the “Browse Rooms” feature allows users to locate the nearest available room or the next available time from either Acendo Book or Acendo Core.
Similar in style to Harman’s Modero S Series Touch Panel, Acendo Book touch panels enable a simple swipe to glide through the room’s calendar to check availability, a full-colour high-res display, wide viewing angle of screen and availability bar LEDs and a low-profile design. The panels can be mounted on any flat surface, including drywall, gang-box, glass, or stone, inside or outside a conference room or huddle space.
