Example of Signage created in DEVOS.

Copy the ID to the target SignStick.

Can I power the SignStick from the TV?

• Unlikely.  The SignStick requires more power than most TV's offer from their USB.  You should use the 3A power supply that ships with the SignStick.

What is the difference between Signage, Scheduled, and Master?

• Scheduled shows your selected sign at a specific time of day and repeats daily

• Master shows your selected signs in a continuous loop and does not check "wall clock" time

• Your selection of Signage, Schedule, or Master must match the signage ID

Can I mix live video, images, recorded video, and web pages in a sign?

• Yes.  Use the DEVOS "Mix" template.  Each item will be displayed full screen for a specified duration.

Can I create custom digital signage?

• Yes.  Use the DiscoverVideo PowerPoint Add-in.

Can I use SignStick without a network connection?

• Yes.  But first you must have a network connection to "load" the desired sign.  After it plays for at least one cycle, your video files (not web pages or Google Slides) will be cached (saved) and you can disconnect the network.

Can I use SignStick with WiFi network connection?

• Yes but WiFi is often a problem for live video if there is not enough bandwidth, for example if many others use the same WiFi network at the same time.  Wired network is often better.
