  • Published on Jul 12, 2020 veröffentlicht
  • The Rally Plus package takes the ample 4K pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera to the next level, offering a full meeting room experience for the enterprise conference room, using Microsoft Teams Rooms and other platforms.
    In this video, I provide an overview of the various components that come with the Rally Plus, go over the cabling and setup of the overall MTR system, demonstrate it's use within a Microsoft Teams meeting, and demo the management and use of the Rally camera itself!

    Great well rounded review. Perfect for people in doubt what “web/conference” cam they need for their business and if it really does what they say! Great job!

    On the dual display. If you are running 2 4K monitors, we offer a very light weight application to fix that. You can reach out to Logitech Support and tell them that you have a Microsoft Teams Room connected to the Table hub with 2 4K monitors. They will send you a little app and a registry setting to make. It can be used on any Windows box, not just Logitech NUCs, so Lenovo, HP, Dell, Etc...

      We contacted Logitech support as we have two 4K Sony TVs and they said it does not support dual 4ks that we have to downgrade to 1080p. Please add any additional information so we can contact support again to get the correct solution.

    Great video for review in setup for research before wanting to purchase. I do have a question, does the Rally Plus and Tap require the Intel NUC to run or can the NUC be used without it.

  • Mohammad Arabdamaireh

    Great job! I have 2 questions:
    1- Is it possible to use Logitech Rally Plus as sound system for internal meeting? i mean in case no remote conference.
    2- Is it possible to integrate Logitech Rally Plus with another sound system? for example, connect Mic Pods to existing Sound System (amplifier, loudspeakers).
    Thanks.

      Adam Berns 9 months ago

      Sorry for the late reply, probably not relivent anymore, but it depends on the size of the room. The speakers or not that powerful. I would recommend use a DSP for a larger space. And use the audio from the PC

    This product is good but when you need to extend the cables you will run into trouble. Check the room you're using it for first.

  • butt lofter

    Great video Josh. Since you’ve had exposure to several of the MTR hardware sets now, do you have any recommendations - ie Yealink vs Logitech? Just switched over to MS phone system and was about to buy a conf room phone when I discovered that Rooms is a thing now, so I’m looking to outfit our 20-person conf room with a MTR setup. The main TV display and the conf table have a sizeable gap between them. Seems USB cable length limits might be a problem?

    • Justin Thomas
      Justin Thomas 6 months ago

      @Expert of Things & Stuff Josh, where are we gonna see hot-swappable rooms? Something that feels more PC-based; choose Zoom, Teams, etc... on a whim. I know China has a product, MaxHub (I think that is the name) that you can load Poly Real Presence software, Zoom, Teams, etc.... But, a lot of folks in America cannot use Chinese products, if they are involved in defense sector or anything just at the confidential level.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      I can't really say that I have recommendations of one vendor over the other. However, I will say that that USB Strong cable that bridges the Rally Plus between the front of room and the conference table is not only a sturdy cable, but very lengthy. It might meet the gap that you have to work with...

    • Phil Doyle
      Phil Doyle 2 years ago +1

      ​@Expert of Things & Stuff Thanks for the responds much appreciate it. I am going to contact Logitech to figure out the best configuration that will fit our needs.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      Thanks! Yes, this is possible, depending on what exactly your requirements are. You can't just switch back and forth between the native Teams and native Zoom software; it runs with one software type, or the other. However, Microsoft Teams Rooms now allow you join Zoom meetings directly from the Microsoft Teams Rooms interface. Simply invite the MTR to your Zoom meeting, just like you would for a Teams meeting, and the invite will show up on the Tap, allowing you to join just like a Teams meeting. Now, the experience will not be the entire feature set for Zoom, but you do get the some AV participation.

    Hi Josh!
    I've been watching this video and the more recent one on Lenovo ThinkSmart Hub 500. Great guidance, so first of all - thanks for them both!
    My question now is - is it possible to combine the Rally package with the Lenovo ThinkSmart Hub? The reason I wonder is, I would like to be able to use the PTZ camera and the extension microphones with the Lenovo Hub. We have heard that, for bigger rooms, the built-in 360 degree microphone might not suffice (and also draw some noise from the hub itself!). But buying the entire package with the screen hub and table hub, seems unnecessary since the Lenovo controls the camera input, HDMI from manual computers etc. But without the screen and table hubs, the microphones might not even be able connect into the Lenovo hub's own input slots, right?
    Would love to hear your thoughts and recommendations. Cheers!

    • Adam Berns
      Adam Berns 2 years ago

      Yes, Rally is compatible with ThinkSmart Hub. You do have to use the Rally Hubs, If I understand the question right.

    Hi Josh, great video u provided.
    i have several question regarding logitech rally plus with nuc, hoping u could help me :
    1. if my NUC already bundled with Microsoft Teams Room (MTR), can i get back to windows 10 desktop home screen ?
    2. after i setup the account of MTR, i couldnt configure my camera properly. theres an issue notification "the camera not certified". I tried my rally plus connected to my laptop (usb), and theres no issues with the camera (logitech sync). Do u have any idea to solve this issue ?
    thanks in advance. GBU

    Thank you for the review. We were considering it, but still not sure if we should pul the trigger. Im not why you would need the NUC unless it is being used for a dedicated Conf room PC. Our needs would be for laptop users; both windows and mac os. Do you have any experience setting this up for Zoom meetings?

    • Adam Berns
      Adam Berns 2 years ago

      Zoom Rooms are supported. This is just a USB device when all said and done. So if you want to plug it just into your laptop like a BYOD into a room, it will work fine. Just remember you will need to let Windows Update bull the Microsoft USB driver (which you probably already have). Nothing to do on the Mac side.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      Unfortunately, no, no Zoom Rooms experience as of this time.

  • pasiutrial

    15:10 does sharing through HDMI cable connected to a Tap panel works exactly the same for Zoom native rooms? Do you have to change some kind of setting in order to be able to share audio as well?

  • San San

    Thanks for review.
    We are considering to use rally plus for Webex/teams/zoom meeting types from PC without a tap.
    Is rally plug auto plug and play in any type of laptop for joining meeting/content sharing?
    or dedicated PC required to standby?

    • Adam Berns

  • Brian Lev-Ari

    Hi, thanks for the great video, We are using The Lenovo Hub 500 with teams and the Rally in a few CR rooms, we were facing issues where the screens were some sort of disconnecting / booting and then recovering. We were not able to solve it and finally when we took a long HDMI cable to the TV directly form the Lenovo it solved the problem. This means that we are not using the Rally for Video, only using it for MIC's Sepakers and Camerra and the true is that it is a bit disappointing, I would appreciate to know if you have seen this issue? We talked with local vendor and got a few tips such as not using 4K, but we were not able to solve it...

    • Brian Lev-Ari

    • faza fahrizal
      faza fahrizal 2 years ago +1

      Hi Brian, we do like you done as well.. the table hub can't share the display directly to TV, so we connect the Hub 500 to the TV with the long HDMI..

  • John Massaro
    John Massaro 2 years ago

    Great video.
    1. As far as the "ethernet" cable that connects the display module and table module together, is that just a standard Ethernet cable? In order to make my room clean of wires, I'd need 50 ish feet between those 2 devices. (up wall, over head in ceiling, down wall, through channel, up to table)
    2. This can be used without the NUC and Tap correct? If we just wanted to have presenters bring in their laptops to present, plug n play once all is set up( camera/mics/speakers, and projector) . Or is there drivers it needs on individual computers, or is that where the NUC comes in?

    • Taufik Hidayat
      Taufik Hidayat 2 years ago

    Which one do you prefer? Rally Bar or the Plus? Also, are you familiar with ow easy it is to remove the bluetooth capability from the Rally Bar or do you all have another sku with no bluetooth and wifi?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  8 months ago

      I am actually no longer at Logi, so you would have to inquire with them about their SKUs and the removal of Bluetooth. As far as I preference goes, I would probably lean toward the Rally Bar, but it is of course all dependent on the needs/requirements of the specific room.

    great video man! We must have the tablet or can the meeting be organised by a laptop or computer?

    • Adam Berns

      When all said and done, this is just a USB device. As long as your computer supports USB3, you should be set.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago +1

      I suppose that depends on whether you want to go a supported route or not. In short, for a supported documented scenario, you will want to use the tablet.

      Hello! You can get the complete Rally Plus system here: www.amazon.com/Logitech-Rally-Ultra-Ptz-Conferencecam/dp/B07JGHZKYW. However, to also get the Tap with the NUC (the required PC for Teams Rooms), you can order here: amzn.to/2ADr7gH. Note, that last link also includes a Meetup camera, so if you want just the Tap + NUC, you would want to search for the Logitech Tap Base Bundle.

      Yes, the PC completes the room. Or if you want Android, Logi is releasing the standalone RoomMate compute for it.

  • Tom Stone

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago +3

      For 1., are you asking if you can replace the NUC with user's laptop via USB? If so, not quite - you would need to have a "compute" device in the same place that the NUC is. If that is NOT what you are asking, and you just want to share your laptop desktop into a meeting in the room, then you can do this via the HDMI that comes out of the Tap (as seen in the video.
      For 2. Not sure what you mean by this. Plug & Play in what sense? Do you mean that you can simply plug the Rally & speakers into a laptop and start using it as a camera and speakers?

  • sicem6

    Can the Rally system amplify the person speaking in the room? Such as, if someone is speaking at a podium, can their voice be amplified through the Rally so people in the room can hear them better as well as picking up their voice for remote meeting attendees?
    I can't seem to find this out anywhere... Guessing maybe not but can't find the answer one way or the other...

    • DJ
      DJ 8 months ago

      @sicem6 No you have to use all rally Plus components for the system to work.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  Year ago

      @sicem6 the answer is that it may work, but likely would not be a supported configuration by Logitech. Depending on the platform, however, you will find different information. In the Teams world, you can check out these certified peripherals for the room systems, that expand into speaker systems, mics, etc... www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/across-devices/devices/category/room-systems-accessories/73

    • sicem6
      sicem6 Year ago

      One other question I would have… If you know the answer… Can the TV hub be plugged into a third-party speaker system? We have both speakers in our conference room we would like to use and it would be nice if we could interface the rally plus system with those speakers somehow. Guess I’m wondering what the output is on the hub and if it can be plugged into a third-party amplifier if necessary. Not sure if you’ve tried this but maybe you could point me somewhere I could find answers?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  Year ago

      It can not use its own mics to amplify through the Rally speakers, no. If you had the person at the podium using a mic that was being used in another computer that was joined to the same meeting, then it is possible to achieve something like this. But it is more of a workaround than a design of the system.

    Do you need the Logitech Tap IP or a NUC? Is it possible to simply just plug a computer into the table box and have it run zoom and share meeting to the TV(s)? Also, what OS does the NUC run that allows this setup? Is it a custom OS? Can I simply just get a raspberry pi, or a extra laptop, and setup the OS on there and have it there dedicated?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  11 months ago

      @DeSibyl yeah, they come as part of a bundle. Your Logitech reseller would definitely be the correct point of contact.

    • DeSibyl
      DeSibyl 11 months ago

      @Expert of Things & Stuff Alright, so I assume you need to get this NUC from the Logitech store or?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  11 months ago

      The only supported path involving the NUC involves a pre-configured image of Windows 10. Trying to make this work with your own custom OS brew is both unsupported, and likely to end up with a non-functional setup.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      I don't believe there should be an issue with a direct connection. The Hubs just allow you to spread things out and break them up a bit more, in a tidy way.

  • Dirk Haex
    Dirk Haex 2 years ago

    I just don't get why they introduce an extra strong usb cable for the Logitech TAP when combined with this system. It requires a lot of companies to lay another cable between the meeting room table and display.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      Well, the Tap can be used independent from the Rally Plus, so without the Rally Plus (using something like the Meetup for example), you wouldn't have that eternity cord between the two hubs to deal with as well.

    Have the full spec rally plus system including nook installed. Just set up two brand new Sony 4K TVs and cannot get the second screen to work. Logitech tech support said to downgrade to 1080p but I do not find that acceptable...does anyone have a solution to run both screens at 4K?

    • DJ
      DJ 9 months ago +1

      @Expert of Things & Stuff Yes, it's the full-blown rally plus system with both the tap and nook. Will probably have to reconfigure the resolution settings on the Sony XR-8590K 4K TV's down to 1080P to get the system to work.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  9 months ago

      Are you running Teams? The system was only designed to support up to two 1080p monitors. I know with Teams, Teams video meetings only go as high as 1080p. So many certified room solutions are not designed with a spec to support 4k monitors...

    • DJ
      DJ 8 months ago

      Yeah it's pretty confusing unfortunately the display hub HDMI pass through ports are very glitchy. It's best to go directly connected to the back of the nuc like he did in the video. I also had to run an HDMI to USB-3 adapter for dual TV screen setup as he did in the video.

      DJ 8 months ago

      It will probably be too short and require an optional mic extension cable for another $200 like my setup did.

      The cable connecting thevmic Pod to the Table Hub is 9.6 ft.

    WHat is the best TV/Monitor to use with the Logitech with CEC?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  Year ago +1

      There isn't actually an official recommendation on that - it just requires doing a bit of shopping and feature comparison. I use Samsungs, and I know several other that do as well, and some use Dell. There are a good number of options out there, but no official recommendations.

      You're going to have to download the camera app to configure out of the default and auto adjust off. You can also set the camera presets on the remote watch the full video he discusses it and should answer your question.

    What OS is the NUC running? Is it a normal Windows OS and with the connection to the tap? Once connected the tap, screen on the tap will just show the meeting scheduler? If I don’t want to use a NUC, can I use any desktop PC to replace the NUC?

    • pasiutrial
      pasiutrial 9 months ago

      In most cases it's running Windows 10 IoT. Yes, Tap will show the meeting scheduler and other controls, it's gonna display MTR app layout. Yes, you can use a regular PC to run MTR app on it.

    There are two huge problems with this product as usual with Logitech Cable related. The Display side needs Mic input when a Ceiling install is done you have to route cables under table to table unit, The tap requires USB means i have to exetended my usb to table or put pc under table ! want pc behind tv.... The table top unit should get USB fed to it by the RJ45 feed from the Display thus not requiring the pc to be mounted with Table unit for Tap installs. Documentation sucks for the most part... you find out the hard way the short comings, These two fixes would make it a HOME RUN

    • DJ
      DJ 8 months ago

      The documentation is very confusing I've spent way too much time on this and the system is still not 100% working the way I'd like. If you do purchase the full-blown rally plus teams system with the tap and the nuc (pc) it comes with a bracket to mount the nuc behind one of the TVs for the cleanest install. Plug your TVs directly into the nuc as the display hub sucks, as just a pass through that's very glitchy. The tap will need power, the strong USB cable runs back to the nuc, as well as the mic cable connection. You are probably going to need to purchase the extended mic cable option ($200) for the ceiling mounted mics.

    • Adam Berns
      Adam Berns 2 years ago

      @Daniel _ There is no PTZ within the teams app (we have been working on this with them for a while on this). The end call button should end the call since it just sends a standard HID command.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  2 years ago

      @Daniel _ Hello Dan! Unfortunately, I am not able to confirm or test either of those things at the moment. The Lenovo Hub being in the mix as a certified solution should not take away any functionality, though, so you should be good to go with the Hub. Also, I believe that you can indeed control the camera in-meeting with Microsoft Teams, but unfortunately, I am not able to verify at this exact moment.

    • Daniel _
      Daniel _ 2 years ago

      @Expert of Things & Stuff Do the "end call" etc. buttons work with the Lenovo HUB and the Rally on the remote? Also, can you can adjust the camera from within the teams meeting? I've seen that feature in other hub devices.

    • Adam Berns
      Adam Berns 2 years ago +1

      No. However, the connectors are mini XLR. But the cable length and power for them from the hub is designed for that cable length. However, you could, unsupported, plug that xlr from the displayhub, into an amplifier, but the sound sync may be off.

      @Expert of Things & Stuff Thanks. I just found out that you can use the screen share adapter for external screen sharing, without using the Tap. Sorry, newbie here.

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  Year ago +1

      Without a Logitech Tap, what screen are you managing the meeting from? Essentially, it sounds like a scenario that would be "unsupported", even if you found a way to make things work. A touch control panel is a key part of the setup.

    I can't understand what kind of software should run the NUC? there is any software to connect the TAP to the NUC ?

    • Expert of Things & Stuff
      Expert of Things & Stuff  7 months ago

      Whoever you purchase your room system through, the NUC should come pre-loaded with a special, locked down version of Windows 10 IoT, running the Microsoft Teams Rooms app. By default, the Teams Rooms app launches at startup, and there is no way to access the OS unless you have the local admin password. The Tap ships preloaded with what it needs - it will just be seen by the Teams Rooms app over USB as a special external touch display.

      @eWhizz - All things bright and technical! Poe injectors I've used are 56v the hub needs 120v. Maybe in the next version Poe and or wireless would be an option. This system is a struggle for anyone that likes super clean OCD installs with cable management.

      @DJ Do you know how many Amps are required? Perhaps one of those PoE to DC plug adapters would be good to provide a single cable installation.

      You are correct no matter how good you are at cable management you end up with a spaghetti factory. There are too many devices that require too many different cables. Hopefully with their next system Logitech will eliminate so many cables and offer poe power and wireless option.

    • DJ

      Just did this exact unit setup in a 12 person conference room. The video quality issue is having to use the USB-3 to HDMI adapter into the nuc that screws up the display quality settings. It's not the adapter itself it's having the adapter connected, as there's only one HDMI port on the nuc. One screen is bright and vibrant the other screen is dull and washed out. Flip flops and it's not the adapter it's just having a second screen plugged into a nuc that doesn't have the dual HDMI ports. It's a very glitchy system there is a lot going on to try to make it right.

    • InCahoots
      InCahoots Year ago

      Very possible that the quality could be getting knocked down from the USB to HDMI converter. I've never seen one in action that worked as well as a native connection. Something to keep in mind.
