Connect to Zoom

Pair the event, then choose when the meeting sees its timer.

STEP 1 OF 5

Copy the event’s Zoom code

Expand Zoom code in the control room and select its copy icon. If no code is present, select Create Zoom code first. Wait for the event’s cloud save to finish so the Zoom app can find it.

No timer is shared. Connect the sample event first.

This example does not contact Zoom. The preview illustrates visibility; it is not a screenshot of the Zoom client.

  1. Copy the event’s Zoom code

    Expand Zoom code in the control room and select its copy icon. If no code is present, select Create Zoom code first. Wait for the event’s cloud save to finish so the Zoom app can find it.

  2. Open Timer inside Zoom

    The operator needs the Timer Zoom App installed or made available by their Zoom administrator. Join a meeting and open Timer from Zoom Apps. Opening /zoom in an ordinary browser does not publish to a meeting.

  3. Connect the event

    Paste the code into Zoom code and select Connect. Confirm the event name. At this point the app is connected, but nothing is shared with the meeting.

  4. Publish the countdown

    Select Sync to Zoom. The indicator appears when the timer is running and follows timing changes from the control room. Participants can see the indicator without installing Timer themselves.

  5. Stop sharing or troubleshoot

    Select Stop sharing timer to remove the indicator, or Cancel sharing while waiting for the timer to start. If pairing fails, check the code and cloud connection. If publishing is unavailable, join a meeting in a supported Zoom client and re-check the app’s environment information.
