This article provides the instructions to configure and register Qbic Panel-PC devices with the Appspace App for devices, ideal for hot-desking or resource reservations, allowing for employees to quickly scan the QR code displayed on the device and make their reservations through the Appspace Employee App.
The Qbic Panel-PC device utilizes the Appspace App for Devices (PWA), and currently only supports the Desk Booking card displayed on a playlist channel.

Appspace has updated the timezone configurations, which now include timezones other than GMT. This enables users with daylight savings to adjust the time accordingly.
