How to set up the Yealink MCore Kit, from unboxing to a working test. It's the room's computer: it runs Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows and connects to the camera, audio, displays and touch controller.
Before you start: check the box
- MCore mini PC
- MTouch Plus touch console
What you need
- For appliance mode: a wired Ethernet drop (recommended over Wi-Fi), a display with HDMI input, and a Teams account and license for the room.
MCore Kit at a glance
- Platform: Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows; Copilot integration
- Controller: MTouch Plus touch panel
Step by step
-
Find a home for it. Mount it behind the display or under the table where it gets airflow and the cables to the camera, display and controller reach without extenders.
-
Connect power and cables. Connect the power adapter.
-
Run Teams Rooms setup. Connect the displays, camera, audio and touch console, then power on. The room software setup starts on the display: sign in with the room's resource account (Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows), then enroll the room in Teams Rooms Pro Management or your device management tool.
-
Update the firmware. Do not unplug devices during an upgrade. See Updating the firmware below.
-
Run a test call. Join a test meeting from the touch controller and check the camera, microphones, speakers and content sharing all work through the room PC.
