Managing a large Chromebox for meetings deployment can be challenging. To ensure end users have the best experience possible, admins constantly do manual room checks to confirm that peripherals (such as the camera, microphone, and speaker) are plugged in and working properly. With the launch of peripheral status monitoring, admins can determine whether or not peripherals are working from directly within the Admin console.
You can find this information in the Admin console under
Device Management > Chrome devices for meetings > View and manage Chrome devices for meetings. From there, select the specific device in question. On the device screen, there will be a set of icons that identify the peripheral’s status:
A grayed out icon means the peripheral is not online.
To learn more about supported peripherals, peripheral status monitoring, device health, and diagnostics, please check out the
Help Center.
