How to configure Zoom Rooms displays

There are two steps (if you have 2 or 3 displays) involved with configuring your display for video or content as default. If you have 1 screen skip the first step.

2. Sign in to the Zoom web portal and click Room Management, then click Zoom Rooms.
3. Use the Zoom Rooms location hierarchy to edit the display settings for your organization or for a single room. After you click Edit next to one of these options, click Display.

How to configure a confidence monitor 

Zoom Rooms with multiple displays (2, 3, or 4) can designate one of them as a confidence monitor. If a fourth display is used, that display may only be configured as a confidence monitor. A display set as a confidence monitor provides a persistent self view, a view of the active speaker, a view of shared content, or a view of the local room share.  

Notes:

• MacOS Zoom Rooms with four displays are supported on these models.  
• MacOS confidence monitors do not support views of shared content or local room shares. 

1. On your Zoom Rooms controller, tap Settings, then tap Arrange Display. Assign 1, 2, 3, or 4 to each display based on the order of preference. 
2. Sign in to the Zoom web portal and click Room Management, then click Zoom Rooms.
3. Use the Zoom Rooms location hierarchy to edit the display settings for your organization or for a single room. After you click Edit next to one of these options, click Display.
4. Click the toggle next to Enable Confidence Monitor. 
5. Click the confidence monitor icon under any of the display options to toggle between self view or active speaker as the default.
