Local Deployment
Set up a Pleneo Room on-site through a Pleneo hub's built-in web interface.
Before you begin
Make sure everything is physically connected:
Connect speakers, microphones, and cameras to your network switch
Connect the Pleneo hub's LAN 1 and LAN 2 to the switch (LAN 1 provides PoE)
A DHCP server is recommended but not required; see "No DHCP server?" below if your network doesn't have one
Open the Pleneo hub's web interface in your browser, by either connection type:
By IP address (eg. https://192.168.1.15):
To find the ip address, perform a Bluetooth scan with your laptop or phone
or connect your laptop over USB. The IP address is part of the Pleneo hub's name.
By Hostname (eg. https://roomhub-ff0010)
Simply type in (roomhub-[last 6 digits of the LAN 1 MAC address].
You can find the MAC address on the box and on the underside of the Pleneo hub.
Pleneo hub works best with a DHCP server, which gives it and its connected devices their IP addresses automatically.
No DHCP server?
If there's no DHCP server, the Pleneo hub falls back to a link-local address (169.254.x.x) so you can still reach it for setup by hostname, Bluetooth, or USB-C, as above. From there, set a static IP address in the Pleneo hub configuration for normal operation.
Initial setup
With the network connections active, complete the basic setup:
Download and update firmware
Create a password
Name the room
You're now ready to build the system.
Adding devices
Add speakers
Select Add Speaker
Choose the speaker model (for example, RoomDesign Ceiling) and select Add Speaker
RoomHub scans the network and lists the available speakers. Select the units you want to include
Add a microphone
Select Add Microphone, then choose the microphone in your room
RoomHub scans the network and detects the microphone. Select it to add it to the system
If you're using a Sennheiser ceiling microphone, enable third-party control in the manufacturer's software first. See Enabling third-party access for Sennheiser TCCM in Control Cockpit.
Add a camera
Select Add Camera, then choose your camera model
RoomHub scans the network and detects the camera. Select it to add it to the system
Your system is now defined.
Using Room bundle (optional)
If you're deploying a Pleneo Express Room Bundle, setup is faster. When you select a room bundle, Pleneo hub knows which devices belong together, scans for all the required products at once, and adds them in a single workflow.
Running AutoDeploy™
Once all devices are added, select Test Room. AutoDeploy validates the system and automatically optimizes the room. Once complete, review the commissioning report.
Camera configuration
After setup, configure camera tracking:
With RoomVision, auto-framing and presenter tracking are configured by Room OS automatically, with no extra steps
If your camera doesn't include built-in tracking, Room OS can provide voice-based camera tracking. Select Set up camera and follow the guided setup in Setting up voice-based camera tracking
Setup complete
Your room is now online and ready to use.
In summary
The web interface setup lets you:
Discover devices automatically
Build the system step by step
Run AutoDeploy to validate and optimize the room
Review the commissioning report
Enable intelligent camera tracking
Within minutes, the room is configured, tested, optimised, and ready to use.
