Zoom Rooms Video Codec Video Conference
Zoom Rooms software-defined conferencing systems can be controlled and managed by Mira Connect, the smart control appliance. This document describes how to set up a Zoom Rooms system and configure Mira Connect to control one or more Zoom Rooms computer.
Mira Connect allows users to control the Zoom Rooms computer and other equipment in the room, and to manage the room locally or remotely. In addition to the Zoom Rooms computer, Mira Connect can control DSP audio devices, displays, TV tuners, recorder/streamers, Blu-ray disc players, video switchers, legacy video telephony equipment, VoIP or PSTN telephony interfaces, and more. See our integration guides on our equipment page, https://aveosystems.com/equipment.
Before getting started, you will need the IP address of the computer running the Zoom Rooms software and the Zoom Rooms API passcode code that was configured from the Zoom.us dashboard. See the instructions later in this document about the Zoom Rooms API passcode.
To integrate the Zoom Rooms computer with Mira Connect, follow these steps:
Using Mira Portal (https://mira.aveosystems.com), create an organization, site, and room for the Zoom Rooms system. Pair the Mira Connect with the room or use the UI Preview feature to see the user interface in a browser. See the training videos for how to get started with Mira Portal and Mira Connect. Add the Zoom Rooms video conferencing system to the room created in Step 1 by clicking ADD on the equipment panel and selecting Zoom Rooms. Enter the computer’s IP address and the Zoom Rooms API passcode. Click Add Equipment to connect to the Zoom Rooms system.
Add more equipment that you’d like to control in the room. See our integration guides for more info.
If Mira Connect can connect to the Zoom Rooms computer over the network, Mira Portal will show the green circle with a check mark. If Mira Connect cannot connect, the Zoom Rooms software isn’t running on the computer, or the API passcode is not correct, the red triangle will be shown.
If Mira Connect cannot connect to the Zoom Rooms computer, confirm these items:
No controllers are paired.

• Both the IP address of the Zoom Rooms computer and Zoom API passcode were entered correctly in Mira Portal.
• The Mira Connect is on the same network or has a route to the network that the Zoom Rooms computer is on.
• The Zoom Rooms application on the computer was restarted after enabling SSH on the Zoom dashboard (see page 18).
• No other controller, including an iPad or Android device running the Zoom Controller software is active with the Zoom Rooms computer. Only one Zoom Rooms controller can be active at a time.
• The Zoom Rooms computer software version supports the ZR-CSAPI using SSH. Check for an update to the Zoom Rooms computer.
• The ZR-CSAPI has been enabled on the Zoom dashboard (see page 17).
• The Zoom Rooms application has been installed to ‘Run as an Administrator’ (on Windows computers) to ensure the Zoom Rooms API application is running.
Once Mira Connect can connect to the Zoom Rooms computer, edit the Zoom Rooms system by clicking the three dots, , to the right of the Zoom Rooms equipment entry.
Audio Configuration
From the Cameras & Audio tab, finalize the Zoom Rooms audio input and output selections by selecting the desired microphone input and speaker output from the channels that were discovered by the Zoom Rooms computer. Adjust the gains on the computer as necessary by moving the volume sliders.
Camera Configuration
If using multiple cameras, enter user-friendly camera names on the bottom of the Cameras & Audio tab to simplify camera selection for the users.
Mira Connect is compatible with both USB cameras and VISCA-controlled cameras. If using VISCA cameras, associate the VISCA camera (which was added separately to the room in Mira Portal) with the Zoom Rooms system (see page 21).
Video Inputs
HDMI video content sources are supported by using an HDMI to USB interface such as the Magewell USB Capture HDMI USB 3.0 dongle and Logitech Screen Share-Conference Room HDMI Adapter. Connect the adapter to the Zoom Rooms computer and the source will be detected by the computer. Content can be shared by selecting the wired connection or selecting the USB interface as a camera.
Video Switcher for Multiple Wired Content Inputs
When you have multiple video content inputs to share, you can use a video switcher for content source selection and to start content sharing automatically.
To use a video switcher for content source selection, add the video switcher to the room as described in the integration guide for your selected video switcher, and add

On the Zoom Rooms ‘Video Inputs’ tab, enable the HDMI content sharing input and click Use Sources Connected to Other Equipment... Select the video switcher and the particular video switcher’s output that is connected to the Zoom Rooms content input. You can also disable specific content inputs if you don’t want them to be visible. In the example below, we’ve selected the equipment ‘Video Switcher’ and output ‘HDMI 1’ from the switcher to connect to the Zoom Rooms computer HDMI-to-USB interface.
These steps automatically create the user interface for Mira Connect so users can simply select the desired video source, and Mira Connect will select the video input through the video switcher and start content sharing automatically.
Zoom Portal - Enable Manual Content Start
When sharing content through a video switcher, since video content is always active on a video switcher output, we recommend you enable Start HDMI content share manually on controller for your Zoom Rooms in the https://Zoom.us portal as shown below.

Figure 31. Use your Zoom account to configure the microphone, loudspeaker, and camera selections. The microphone, speaker, and camera selections can also be configured from Mira Portal as shown in Figure 38.
Next we’ll enable the ‘Control System API’ and ‘Allow SSH’ connections as shown in Figure 32.
To enable the API, set both the ‘Enable Control System API’ and the ‘Allow SSH Connections’ options to on. If your dashboard does not include the Control System API, ensure the Zoom Rooms computer is running a version of Zoom Rooms software that supports the ZR-CSAPI. Contact Zoom with any questions about the proper version of software required for the Zoom Rooms API.
After enabling the Control System API, enter a passcode that will be used with Mira Connect. Both the ‘Enable Control System API’ and ‘Allows SSH Connections’ should be enabled. Mira Connect uses the API to securely control the Zoom Rooms System.
At the present time (December 2020), Chrome OS versions and Android-based versions of Zoom Rooms do not support the Zoom Room CSAPI. A Windows or Mac computer is required for Mira Connect to control a Zoom Rooms system.

Dialing Multiple Zoom Rooms at the Same Time
There are many applications where it is useful to have multiple Zoom Rooms systems in the same room join in the same call. For example, while lecture halls typically have a Zoom Rooms system for the instructor, there may also be additional video inputs, such as whiteboards or additional room views, that users would like to have active in the call simultaneously, enhancing the learning experience.
When using Multiple Zoom Rooms, Mira Connect is can be configured to dial multiple Zoom Rooms systems into the same call, making it easy for users to join their desired call and have the rest of the systems join automatically.
Users dial the desired call using Mira Connect, controlling the primary Zoom Rooms system and then Mira Connect dials the secondary systems automatically.
In addition, Mira Connect can use a host key to ensure the primary system is the host of the call. Users can also choose to spotlight any of the Zoom Rooms systems once they are in the call.
To configure Mira Connect to control multiple Zoom Rooms, add multiple Zoom Rooms systems into the room by clicking the ADD option on the equipment tab and add the Zoom Rooms systems. In the figure below there are four Zoom Rooms systems added to the room.
Next, edit the primary Zoom Rooms - this is the one that Mira Connect will use for dialing, camera control, content sharing - and select the OPTIONS tab.
Enable each of the Zoom Rooms to be secondary systems. You can also choose to spotlight one of systems by default by checking the Spotlight after joining meeting option. In this example, we’ve selected the system labeled Whiteboard 2 to be spotlighted after the systems have joined the call. Click UPDATE EQUIPMENT when done.
The secondary Zoom Rooms don’t have any audio associated with them and typically have a camera that is fixed and doesn’t need to be controlled separately. Mira Connect only supports adjusting audio and camera positioning on the primary Zoom Rooms system.
