We are thrilled to announce the completion of our latest Luxafor software update for Windows! This update brings an integrated functionality with Microsoft Teams in “Teams Only” mode! With the transition from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams, many users were unable to display their status, as Microsoft did not allow access to the presence information through our previous integration with Skype for Business.
Our new software update for Windows enables Luxafor devices to change colors based on the user’s Microsoft Teams presence status. During a call, the Luxafor devices will flash red and purple. If you want to show your Microsoft Teams presence/availability status via Luxafor Flag or Luxafor Bluetooth, you’ll find this information very useful!
If you are looking for ways to connect Luxafor Flag or Luxafor Bluetooth to Microsoft Teams in any
other Coexistence mode, please refer to this article.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO CONNECT YOUR LUXAFOR DEVICE WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS:
1. Connect Luxafor device.
2. Download and install the latest Luxafor software version for Windows here.
3. Open “Microsoft Teams” tab in Luxafor software.
4. Open Microsoft Teams (download it here if not installed on your computer yet).
5. Log into your Microsoft Teams account.
6. Go to “Settings” in Microsoft Teams and ensure “Register Teams as the chat app for Office” is enabled.
7. Enjoy! Your Luxafor device is now connected to your Microsoft Teams account in “Teams Only” mode and includes these
functions:
- Indicates your availability status on Luxafor device according to Teams status;
- Flashes red for the whole duration of a call;
- Changes back to indicate the color of your status immediately after the call has ended.
Troubleshooting:
If the Luxafor device is not flashing red during a call, try “Reset status” function in Microsoft Teams.
If this doesn’t help, please contact Microsoft Teams support about
presence status issues.
