How to set up the Logitech Sight

Updated

How to set up the Logitech Sight, from unboxing to a working test. It's a companion camera: it works alongside the Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini, which runs the meeting.

How to set up the Logitech Sight
Set up the Logitech Sight: what you need, cabling, appliance and USB mode, firmware and a test.

Before you start: check the box

  • Sight camera
  • Sight dongle
  • Mic pod dongle
  • Privacy shade
  • Grommet mount
  • Table mount
  • Tripod mount
  • User documentation

What you need

  • Ports on the Sight: Cabling: Cat6A SFTP/SSTP shielded (Cat5/5e/6 not supported).
  • For USB mode: a laptop or room PC with a free USB port that matches the included cable. Plug directly into the computer rather than through a hub where possible.

Sight at a glance

  • Camera: Dual-lens, 4K sensor, up to 60 fps
  • Microphones: 7 MEMS mics forming 6 endfire beams, 2.3 m (7.5 ft) pickup radius

Step by step

  1. Place it on the table. Put it in the middle of the table, within 8 ft of every seat, with nothing taller than it nearby. Run the cable under the table to the bar. See Sight mounting and placement.

  2. Connect power and cables. Connect the power adapter. Then connect the cables your setup needs (Cabling: Cat6A SFTP/SSTP shielded (Cat5/5e/6 not supported)). Long runs may need the manufacturer's extender.

  3. Add it to the room system. With the host powered on, the Sight is detected automatically. Check the host's settings or admin portal lists it, then set it as a companion camera.

  4. Set up USB mode. Connect the Sight to the computer by USB. In Teams, Zoom or Meet, open the device settings and select the Sight as the camera and microphone.

  5. Update the firmware. CollabOS devices (Rally Bar family, MeetUp 2, RoomMate, Tap IP/Tap Scheduler) run CollabOS and are updated through Logitech Sync Portal or the room platform's own update path (Logitech publishes a Google, Microsoft & Zoom Room Update Guide). See Updating the firmware below.

  6. Run a test call. Join a test meeting, check framing from every seat, speak from the far end of the table, and have the remote side confirm they hear you clearly with no echo.

Updating the firmware

CollabOS devices (Rally Bar family, MeetUp 2, RoomMate, Tap IP/Tap Scheduler) run CollabOS and are updated through Logitech Sync Portal or the room platform's own update path (Logitech publishes a Google, Microsoft & Zoom Room Update Guide). Devices attached by USB to a room PC are updated with the Logitech Sync app (select the device, install the available update, reboot the host). Do not unplug power.

Tools:

  • Logitech Sync Portal (cloud): inventory, remote settings, firmware updates and Local Network Access toggling for room devices

  • Local Network Access (LNA): on-device HTTPS web UI for CollabOS devices (CollabOS 1.6+)

  • CollabOS on-device system settings: reachable from the touch controller, remote or hardware button in appliance mode

  • Don't unplug power or USB while an update runs.

  • Close Teams, Zoom and other apps that use the device before updating it from a computer.

  • Update one room first, test a call, then roll out to the rest.
