App URL Setup
For more detailed information, visit App URL and see the Example (App URL) which describes how to use an App URL without logging into BSN.cloud and creating a Setup.
BrightAuthor:connected Setup
Sign in to BSN.cloud (in the upper right corner of BrightAuthor:connected) using your email address and password or click New User to create an account.
Select Setup in the Admin tab
Enter a Setup Name, Player Name, and Player Description.
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.
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.
Select App URL under Publishing Mode, and enter the URL address of the autorun.zip file you want to use.
Select either Save Setup or Add Setup to Library:
If you need to use CA certificates, select Save Setup to save directly to the SD card through BrightAuthor:connected.
If you want to save to an SD card, select Save Setup in BrightAuthor:connected.
If you don’t need to use certificates and want to use control.bsn.cloud, you should select Add Setup to Library so you can provision online.
Player Setup
Make sure the player is powered off.
Insert the storage device (usually a microSD card) into the player.
Power up the player.
Upon boot up, the player should display a message on the screen indicating that setup is in progress. Do not unplug the player.
When complete, the player will display a message indicating that setup is complete.
You can now use the player with your custom application.
