Starting a scheduled collaboration session



As the host, you have two methods to start a scheduled session, even if the scheduled time has not yet arrived.

Method 1: Starting from the SimLab Dashboard (Website)

This method provides the most control and can be used to start a session before its scheduled time.

Access My Sessions: Log in to the SimLab Dashboard and navigate to the My Sessions tab.

Locate the Session: Find the session you wish to start under the Upcoming Sessions list.

Start the Session: Click the green Start Session button next to the event title.

The session will immediately start for all invited and joining participants.

Method 2: Starting from SimLab VR Viewer (VR Application)

When the scheduled time arrives, the VR Viewer application will prompt the host to start the session.

Wait for Notification: At the scheduled time of the session (e.g., 10:00 AM on March 28, 2025), a pop-up message will appear inside your SimLab VR Viewer application.

Click Start: The message will contain a button labeled Start. Click this button to instantly initiate the VR Collaboration session.
