How to Activate ScreenBeam Service Licenses

This article is applicable for ScreenBeam Administrative Tools and Instructional Tools, and including services such as Signage+, Alert+, Messenger, Orchestrate Full, or Active Learning.

ScreenBeam service licenses, such as Administrative Tools and Instructional Tools, are activated through ScreenBeam Cloud and then assigned to individual ScreenBeam receivers through CMS Enterprise (CMSE).

  • The ScreenBeam receivers must be connected to CMS Enterprise.
  • CMS Enterprise must be connected to ScreenBeam Cloud.
    See How to Sign Up for ScreenBeam Cloud.
