Standalone Setup

BrightAuthor:connected Setup

After selecting Setup in the Admin tab:

1. Enter the Player Name and Player Description.

2. Set your Time Zone. The player should be connected to the internet to set the time correctly, but the time can be set manually as well. See this page for more information.

3. Select an Idle Screen Color. The default is black but it is helpful to select an alternate color to readily identify when the display is idling as opposed to powered off.

4. For Publishing Mode, select Standalone.

5. Select Save Setup and save to a blank microSD card. Save the files to the top/root level of the card; do not save to a sub-folder. A message may appear indicating that your OS should be up to date. Select OK.
