From here, click ‘Invite User’ under the name of your school. When inviting colleagues, you have a number of user types to choose from. Most colleagues should be invited as the ‘Teacher’ user type; this gives them the ability to use all the day-to-day functions of the ClassVR Portal. IT Technicians and Computing Co-Ordinators should be invited as the ‘Admin’ user type. Simply enter their email address and click ‘Send Invite’.3.2. Connect your headsets to your school’s Wi-Fi networkYour ClassVR headsets have been pre-loaded with some VR experiences and can be used straight away. However, in order to control the headsets, you will need to connect them to your school’s Wi-Fi network. Create QRKeysVisit http://portal.classvr.com and make sure you have logged in. Click the circle at the top right of the screen. On the admin page, look for the Network section and click Connect Device:This tool will generate a QRKey that you can scan with each ClassVR headset.Follow the steps below:1. Select the correct network type.2. Enter your school’s SSID (network name). Make sure you enter this exactly as it appears (including spaces and capital/lowercase letters).3. Enter the network password.4. The system will automatically generate a QRKey (this will not be saved, so you may wish to print the page or save an image of the QR using a snipping tool).If your school uses a proxy server that is not transparent, you will need to create a separate QRKey to scan (otherwise, skip to the next section: Scan QRKeys).To do this, click the link to our quickstart page.Enter the information into the Proxy area.1. Complete the required ﬁelds: ○Proxy Host – The host address of your school’s proxy server. ○Proxy Port – The port number of your school’s proxy server. ○Username – The username for your school’s proxy server (if necessary). ○Password – The password for your school’s proxy server (if necessary). ○Exclusions – Any addresses that should not be accessed via your school’s proxy server. Note: Proxy exclusions should be separated by commas. For example: myschool.sch,espresso. Wildcards in Android exceptions are handled dierently to other platforms and there is no need to use the asterisk as a wildcard character. ○For example, an exception for yourschool.sch matches yourschool.sch as well as any subdomains (e.g. mail.yourschool.sch).2. Don’t forget to save an image of the QRKey if necessary.14 15

Scan QRKeys with each headsetOn each of your ClassVR headsets, open the Scanner app by looking at the icon of a QR code and making a select gesture with your hand in front of the device.Once the Scanner app launches, simply look at the Wi-Fi QRkey until you hear a beep. This will add the Wi-Fi connection to your headset.If your school has a proxy server, repeat this process with the Proxy QRkey, once the headset has connected to the Wi-Fi.3.3. Scan your school’s enrolment QRKeyYour headsets may already be enrolled when you receive them. You can check this by going to http://portal.classvr.com, clicking the Deliver tab at the top of the page, and looking at the Devices pane; the headsets should be listed here.

4.5 Controlling a Subset of ClassVR HeadsetsIf you have a large number of ClassVR headsets enrolled in your Organisation or need to control smaller subsets of headsets separately, you can do this via the ClassVR Portal.In the Deliver section, look for the Devices pane on the right. At the bottom of this pane, you will see the ﬁlter button. Clicking on it gives you some ﬁltering options.Active DevicesIf you select this ﬁlter, you will only see headsets that are actively being worn and are connected to the local network; all others are hidden.Beacon ZoneThis ﬁlter allows you to select the set of ClassVR headsets that you have in your classroom. Make sure you follow these steps:1. Bring the case and the headsets you wish to use into your classroom.2. Plug the case in to a power outlet so that the fan turns on and a green light appears on the InClass Beacon.3. Look on the outside of the case to ﬁnd the name of the set.4. When you turn the headsets on, they will connect to the InClass Beacon for that set.5. Add a ﬁlter for this set name on the ClassVR Portal.If you are using more than one set, simply add another ﬁlter to include this set name.GroupsThis allows you to create your own Groups and assign devices one by one.First, you’ll need to create a new Group by clicking the ﬁlter icon and selecting the Group option.Once your Group has been created, right-click on the device name in the Devices pane to add it by selecting your Group from the dropdown menu.Now that you have some headsets in your Group, you can apply a ﬁlter so that only your Group is shown and controlled. Click the ﬁlter icon at the bottom of the devices pane, select Group as the ﬁlter type, and pick your Group from the dropdown menu. Then click Add Filter.You’ll see that only the headsets in your Group appear. If you press Play or send a Playlist, the change will only aect headsets in this Group.You’ll also notice a QRKey icon at the top of the Devices pane, next to the name of your Group ﬁlter. Clicking this will bring up a QRKey in the Preview pane. This gives you another way to add headsets to the Group. On the headset, open the Scanner app and look at the QRKey until the screen turns green.NOTE: You can only make changes to a headset’s Group when it is Connected (switched on and connected to Wi-Fi).24 25

Section 5Technical Setup GuideThere are some things that you should ask your school’s technician to check are in place so that you can get started with your ClassVR headsets right away.Network Conﬁguration5.1. Check IP addressesYou will require one IP address per ClassVR headset. Ensure that there are enough available addresses within your school’s range.5.2. URL whitelistThe following URLs are used for communication between your ClassVR headsets and the ClassVR servers and should be whitelisted at your ﬁrewall and/or proxy server: • device.avncloud.com• data.avncloud.com• cloud.avncloud.com• api.avncloud.com• avn.cloud• portal.classvr.com• cdn1.360cities.net• cdn2.360cities.net• cospaces.io• edu.cospaces.io• cdn.cospaces.ioThe following entries can be used if your ﬁrewall allows wildcard entries: • *.classvr.com • *.avncloud.com • *.360cities.net5.3. PortsIn order to control your headsets with the ClassVR Portal, you should allow outbound access on the following ports:• 37395 to 374005.4. Proxy server bypassMost communication with your ClassVR headsets via the ClassVR Portal remains within your network.

Before using the headsetRead and follow all setup and operating instructions provided with your ClassVR headsets.Your ClassVR headset and management software are not designed for use with any unauthorised device, accessory and/or software. Use of an unauthorised device, accessory and/or software may result in injury to you or others, may cause performance issues or damage to your system and related services.To reduce the risk of discomfort, adjust the viewing focus using the wheel on top of the headset for each user before use.A comfortable virtual reality experience requires an unimpaired sense of motion and balance. Do not use the headset when you are: very tired; under emotional stress or anxiety; or when suering from cold, ﬂu, headaches, migraines, or earaches, as this can increase your susceptibility to adverse symptoms.We recommend seeing a doctor before using the headset if you are pregnant, elderly, or have pre-existing binocular vision abnormalities or other serious medical conditions.ChildrenAdults should make sure children use the headset in accordance with these health and safety warnings. Adults should monitor children who are using or have used the headset for any of the symptoms described in these health and safety warnings, and should limit the time children spend using the headset and ensure they take breaks during use. Prolonged use should be avoided, as this could negatively impact hand-eye coordination, balance, and multi-tasking ability. Adults should monitor children closely during and after use of the headset for any decrease in these abilities.SeizuresCertain people (about 1 in 4000) may suer from severe dizziness, seizures, eye or muscle twitching or blackouts triggered by light ﬂashes or patterns. This may occur while they are playing video games, watching TV or experiencing virtual reality, even if they have never had a seizure or blackout before or have no history of seizures or epilepsy. These seizures are more common in children, and in young people under the age of 20. Anyone who experiences any of these symptoms should discontinue use of the headset and seek medical advice. Anyone who previously has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic condition should see a doctor before using the headset.General precautionsTo reduce the risk of injury or discomfort you should always follow these instructions and observe these precautions while using the headset: ○Use only in a safe environment: the headset produces an immersive virtual reality experience that distracts you from and completely blocks your view of your actual surroundings. Adults should be particularly aware of this when children are using the headset. ○Always be aware of surroundings before beginning use and while using the headset. Use caution to avoid injury. Serious injuries can occur from tripping, running into or striking walls, furniture or other objects, so clear an area before use. We advise you to ensure children remain seated where possible. ○Be aware that use of the headset may cause loss of balance. ○Remind children that the objects you see in the virtual environment do not exist in the real environment. They may forget that they cannot sit or stand on them or use them for support. ○Take special care to ensure that you (and children in your care) are not near other people, objects, stairs, balconies, open doorways, windows, furniture, open ﬂames, ceiling fans or light ﬁxtures or other items that you can bump into or knock down when using—or immediately after using—the headset. Make sure children remain seated and still where possible to avoid collisions with other students and objects. ○Make sure the headset is level and secured comfortably on your head, and that you see a single, clear image. ○Do not handle sharp or otherwise dangerous objects while using the headset. ○Never wear the headset in situations that require attention, such as walking, bicycling, or driving.Section 7Health and Safety ○Allow your body to adjust by easing into use of the headset; use for only a few minutes at a time at ﬁrst, and only increase the amount of time using the headset gradually as you grow accustomed to virtual reality. Take the time to look around slowly when you ﬁrst enter the experience. ○Do not use the headset while in a moving vehicle as this can increase your susceptibility to unwanted symptoms. ○Adults should take at least a 10 to 15 minute break every 30 minutes. Every person is dierent; if you feel discomfort, take more frequent and longer breaks. Children should take more frequent breaks. ○If using headphones, be cautious: listening to sound at high volumes can cause irreparable damage to your hearing. Background noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. Ensure that you use the sound at a volume that allows you to maintain awareness of your surroundings and reduce the risk of hearing damage.DiscomfortStop using your ClassVR headset immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms: seizures; dizziness; disorientation; altered, blurred, or double vision or other visual abnormalities; loss of awareness; eye strain; eye or muscle twitching; involuntary movements; impaired balance; drowsiness; fatigue; impaired hand-eye coordination; excessive sweating; increased salivation; nausea; discomfort or pain in the head or eyes; or any symptoms similar to motion sickness.In some cases, symptoms can persist and become more apparent hours after use of virtual reality equipment. In addition to the symptoms above, you may experience drowsiness and decreased ability to maintain focus on multiple tasks. These symptoms may put you at an increased risk of injury when engaging in normal day-to-day activities.Do not operate machinery, drive, or engage in other visually or physically demanding activities that have potentially serious consequences, or other activities that require unimpaired balance and hand-eye coordination until you have fully recovered from any symptoms.Do not resume use of the headset until all symptoms have completely subsided for several hours. Make sure you have properly conﬁgured the headset before resuming. You may be more prone to symptoms based upon the content being used, particularly if it involves motion rather than a static image. Bear this in mind when selecting content. See a doctor if you have serious and/or persistent symptoms.Repetitive Stress InjuryWhen using gesture control, take special care to avoid exaggerating gestures to the point of injury. This is particularly important when making head gestures. It is crucial to ensure children are aware of the correct gestures (as detailed in the guide) and take care not to injure their head or neck when performing these gestures.Using the device may make your joints or skin hurt. If you feel symptoms such as tingling, numbness, burning or stiness, or if any part of your body becomes sore or fatigued while using the headset or its parts, stop and rest for several hours before using it again. If you continue to have any of the above symptoms or other discomfort during or after use, stop use and see a doctor.Electrical shockTo reduce risk of electric shock: ○Do not modify or open any of the components provided. ○Do not use the product if any cable is damaged or any wires are exposed. Immediately contact Avantis Systems Ltd.Damaged or broken deviceIf any part is broken or damaged, do not use your device. Do not attempt to repair any part of your device yourself. Repairs should only be made by Avantis Systems Ltd.Contagious conditionsTo avoid transferring contagious conditions (e.g. conjunctivitis), do not share the headset with persons with contagious infections, diseases or conditions, particularly of the eyes, skin or scalp. Clean the headset between each use with skin-friendly non-alcoholic antibacterial wipes. The lenses can be removed by twisting if necessary, and can be cleaned with soapy water and dried with a soft cloth. Dust can be removed from the headset with an air duster.Skin irritationThe headset is worn next to your skin and scalp; stop using it if you notice itchiness, swelling, skin irritation or other reactions. If symptoms persist, contact a doctor.30 31
