Zoom Room Alerts
Within the Alert Settings tab, you can select which alerts you want to appear on the Zoom Room screen, as well as which emails you want sent to people or groups who can respond to those alerts.
For Zoom Rooms used for viewing content rather than presenting content, disable the options in the Client Alert Setting section. As a result, the camera, microphone, and speaker alerts do not display. You can disable the room if the peripheral devices are disconnected if you leave these options enabled.
