Smart Technologies Bridgit 4.5 - Manual (Page 47)

The SMART Scheduler Outlook add-in
If you're using a Windows operating system, the SMART Scheduler option integrates the
SMART Bridgit server with Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft Outlook Clients. This enables
you to schedule single or recurring meetings that use SMART Bridgit software.
If you're using Mac operating system software, once you create a SMART Scheduler meeting, the
meeting participants receive an invitation containing a link to the SMART Bridgit meeting and its
password. If you're using a calendar application on your Mac that's compatible with Microsoft
Outlook, you can accept these meeting invitations.
Before you install the SMART Scheduler Outlook add-in, consider the following:
l
The add-in won't function correctly if the SMART Scheduler server and the Microsoft Exchange
Server aren't correctly configured. Contact your system administrator if you're unsure about the
status of these two servers.
l
You must have local administrative rights on the computer you want to install the add-in on.
Minimum requirements

1.2 GHz processor

Microsoft Outlook 2003 SP3, 2007 SP2 or 2010.
l
A network connection that provides access to your SMART Bridgit server and your Microsoft
Exchange Server 2003, 2007 or 2010
Installing the SMART Scheduler Outlook add-in
The SMART Scheduler Outlook add-in enables you to automatically create a SMART Bridgit meeting
that accompanies a Microsoft Outlook meeting.
You can install the add-in on any computer that can communicate with your SMART Bridgit server,
but the add-in must be installed and configured by an administrator. Once the add-in is installed, any
user can change individual profile settings. These changes affect only the profile of the user that set
them. The administrator settings remain the same.
