Welcome to Digipal Signage

Overview

Welcome to Digipal Signage.

Digipal helps you manage digital content across one screen or an entire network of displays from one place.

You can use Digipal to upload or create content, organize it into playlists, choose what appears on each screen, schedule content for specific times, and manage displays remotely.

For example, a restaurant can use Digipal to manage:

• digital menu boards;
• promotional displays;
• pickup-area screens;
• dining-room televisions.

A hotel might use Digipal for:

• lobby welcome screens;
• meeting-room displays;
• breakfast promotions;
• spa advertisements;
• event information.

A business with multiple locations can manage all of those screens from the same Digipal account.

What You Can Do With Digipal

Depending on your account and available features, Digipal can help you:

• connect and manage digital screens;
• upload images and videos;
• create visual content;
• organize media into playlists;
• schedule content;
• manage multiple screens together;
• organize displays into groups;
• see which screens are online or offline;
• temporarily override normal screen content;
• manage interactive and advanced signage experiences.

You do not need to learn all of these features before getting started.

For your first setup, focus on four things:

Screen → Content → Assign → Play

The Basic Workflow

Most everyday digital signage workflows follow this pattern:

1. Connect a Screen

Install the Digipal player on a supported device and pair it with your account.

2. Add Content

Upload or create something you want to display.

3. Choose What the Screen Plays

Assign an individual content item or a playlist to your screen.

4. Digipal Displays It

Once the player receives the assignment, your content can begin playing on the display.

Install Player → Pair Screen → Add Content → Assign Content → Content Plays

Before You Begin

For your first screen, you will generally need:

• a TV or compatible display;
• a supported device capable of running the Digipal player;
• an internet connection;
• access to your Digipal account;
• content you want to display.

If you do not yet have your own media ready, you can still set up the screen first and add content afterward.
