To add data to the signs, the User must have the Four Winds Interactive Content Manager installed on their computer. Overall, the basic steps to creating a Digital Sign are basic and straightforward. The software allows for you to use various types of data such as PDF files, PowerPoint presentations, Flash files, Video, RSS feeds, Images, Text, and more. Note: The Content Manager should only be installed on a machine that will be used for the signage. Do not install it on a machine that will only be used temporarily. Instructions for, Adding a Database Connection in Content Manager can be found in Appendix A. These instructions will provide step by step details for setting up the Content Manager on your computer. Basic Steps for Creating a Digital Sign 1. Select a content type and add the file to the Content Library 2. Add content from the Content Library to the Network Tree 3. Adjust the duration of content (and make other adjustments to content such as layout) 4. Deploy the data to the Player Version

3 Content Manager Interface Overview Content Type: Displays buttons that allow Users to select the type of content they want added to the Content Library. 2. Network Tree: Lists the individual signage player machines and individual sign layouts. You can expand and collapse items in the network tree. You can also right click any item to display additional context menus with commands related to that item. 3. Views: Timeline View: Displays a graphical representation of the recurrence patterns for each template, region, and content item in the network tree. This is the default view. Preview: Used to preview a sign. The view is available when a template, region, or content item is highlighted in the network tree. Click the button to launch the preview, and click the button to close the preview and return to the timeline view. Template Layout: Displays the template layout with markers showing the locations of the regions. The view is available when a template, region, or content item is highlighted in the network tree.

16 3. Find the Player in Select Computer box. 4. Click on the OK button. 5. Click on the OK button again. Version

17 Appendix B: Using Live Data Live Data is a versatile Content Type that can be used to create signs for external data that should be displayed in lists. Lists can include dated items or just lists of important items. The data can be stored in files such as Excel spreadsheets. You can also use RSS feeds, other file types, as well as other third-party products. This type of content works well when using an Excel spreadsheet because you are able to continually add information to the spreadsheet to update the display without going into the Content Manager. Once the data is loaded into the Content Manager you are able to customize the display of the data (location of fields, font color, font size, etc.) and sort and filter. 1. From the left frame, select Live Data. Version

18 2. The Properties box displays. 3. Name: Enter a name for the content you are adding. This is the name that will display in the Content Library for you to select. 4.

URL: Click on Remember: All files that you want to add to the Content Library should be in the shared folder for your Signage. Locate the file that you want to add to the Content Library and click on the Open button. Version

19 6. In the Data Format field, use the drop down and select the data type from the list. Note: In this example, an Excel spreadsheet was used. The spreadsheet, could look as basic as the following: The data will be pulled from the list and displayed on the Signage. The spreadsheet can be updated and the new data pulled when the Update interval has passed. 7. Click on the OK button. The content should now be loaded into the Content Library and you can find it by the Name you gave it in a previous step. Version

20 8. Drag the Live Data item from the Content Library to the region of the signage in the Network Tree. 9. When you place it in the region, it will not display in the preview yet. You need to format the layout before the content will show. Right click over the content and select the option for, Edit Source Content Layout. 10. The Layout Properties box displays: Header Band: Great for Titles Note: Make a band bigger by dragging and dropping the Band borders. Detail Band: Place Data Fields here Version

21 11. You can add a title by putting a Static Text frame in the top band. You can drag and drop the wall of each band to make them larger or smaller. Make the top band larger and then click on the Static Text data field in the top left and drag to the top band. You can add your own text. To format text, right click over the box. 12. Add the fields from the spreadsheet to the layout. You can either drag the field from the Data Fields frame to the bottom band or you can use the Markup Text field and type the field name exactly as it shows (case and space sensitive). The Markup Text tool works well if you want to incorporate more than one piece of data into a single field. If you use Markup Text you need to enter the field name with the following format: {field_name} (where field_name is the actual field name and it is case sensitive) Version

22 13. You can make this band larger by dragging the frame. You can get an indication of how many rows of data will display by looking at the bottom of the box when making the field larger (by dragging and dropping). At the current band size, up to 10 rows of data will display 14. When you are finished adding and formatting the fields, click on the OK button. The data will preview in the region you added the Live Data to. If you need to make adjustments, right click over the Live Data in the Network tree and select Edit Source Content Layout again.
