Hi folks,? Coming out of my long lurking slumber to post once again :) I picked up an older Crestron Mercury unit for peanuts to donate to my church's conference room, and am having some issues. I have everything connected in my office per the Zoom Room setup guide using an Intel NUC that I bought separately. Nuc HDMI to the TV, PC to the Mercury HDMI in, mouse/keyboard/Logitech Webcam (not the "Logitech C930e" though) to the NUC USB ins and Mercury USB-C to the NUC.
So, the issue I have is that Zoom Rooms will not see the Mercury as a mic/speaker choice. It only sees the Logitech webcam mic and the TV speakers connected to the NUC. I've plugged the webcam into the Mercury USB/Cam input, but it doesn't see it at all (not surprising as it's one of the older B series. I may have a C9xx series at church to try). There's nothing in the Mercury touch screen or web setup that yields any clues, all just show the webcam mic and TV speakers (if the webcam is in the NUC)?
1. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong? 2. I didn't realize that you couldn't present a presentation from a laptop/PC with the Zoom Rooms setup (kinda limited), is there a newer version of Mercury/Flex that does?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi folks, Anyone have any ideas of why my Mercury CCS-UC-1 isn't appearing to the Zoom Rooms PC as a valid audio interface (neither mic or speakers)? Details in post below.
Thanks, Jeff

The older mercury does not have a usb c. It is a usb B. Maybe double check over there.

NFH, You are correct, it is a USB micro connection in the USB B jack, and it is connected with the correct USB-A to USB-Micro cable (came with the Mercury). Any ideas why the Zoom Rooms PC isn't seeing the Mercury as an AV interface? Is there perhaps a driver that is missing? I didn't see any software online other than the?FW. I do have the latest fw from Crestron's product page loaded, no change.
Thanks, Jeff

This must work out of the box, there is no driver needed. If the Mercury does not show up as speakerphone on the PC when you connect it on the micro USB B port then either the cable or the port is faulty, maybe that's the reason why it was cheap.
