Daisy chain Speaker microphone detection issues

Problem

Issues connecting two speaker microphones via daisy chain for Google Meet Hardware device.

Environment

  • Google Meet

Solution

  1. Connect one speakermic to a power outlet using the power adapter.
  2. On one speakermic, in the Next network port, insert the network cable.
  3. On a second speakermic, in the Previous network port, insert the other end of the cable. Up to 5 speakermics can be connected this way.
    For the best audio quality, we recommend that speakermics be less than 4.9 feet (1.5 m) away from each meeting participant and less than 6.5 feet (2 m) away from each additional speakermic.
  4. On one of the speakermics, in the micro-USB port, insert the USB cable and connect it to the Chromebox.
  5. Wait for the lights on each speakermic to turn white.
  6. In Google Meet, click Settings and make sure theh Meet speakermic is selected.

Note: If the Google Meet speakermic firmware is out of date, an automatic update might start when the device is connected. If so, you’ll see the yellow lights flashing. You should allow up to 2 minutes for the update to finish.
