From install to live timer in minutes.
Use this short path when you just need EzyTimer working: install on the show laptop, load speakers, open the display, test the camera if needed, and run Show Ready.
- 1 · Install on the Windows 11 show laptopRun the current installer as administrator so the desktop app and EzyTimer virtual camera can register correctly. Use the real event laptop, activate the trial or license while online, keep the laptop plugged into power.
- 2 · Open the controllerUse the controller to add speakers, durations, notes, and the running order. Confirm the next speaker is visible, use show lock when the lineup is ready, and if using iPad or phone control connect to the same local network.
- 3 · Open the room displaySend the full-screen display to the projector, confidence monitor, or second screen. Choose a readable theme, disable animation if the room needs a calmer display, and stand where the speaker stands to check readability.
- 4 · Test Zoom or Teams if hybridStart EzyTimer first, then choose the EzyTimer virtual camera inside Zoom or Microsoft Teams. Preview the camera before the meeting starts; if it is missing, use tray Reset camera system…, then confirm the timer syncs live.
- 5 · Run Show ReadyUse tray Run Show Ready check… before the first speaker starts. Review controller, display, overlay, camera, recovery, network, and sleep status. If support is needed, use Save diagnostic report… Only start the show once the important checks pass.
