How To Create A Player Site

All players belong to a Player Site. This is the physical location where players reside. In retail, that might be a store or a branch. In a corporate situation, that could be a head or regional office address.

Navigate to NETWORK / PLAYER SITES and you’ll find all the Sites in your network. It will show their address, and how many players are at each site.

Click on the thumbnail to see a more detailed view of the Players at each Site. It will show their current reporting status (connected or otherwise), plus you can click on the thumbnail to see a preview of the Playlist it has been scheduled to play.

You can put the player in stand-by by clicking the red DEACTIVATE button. You can also deactivate all players at the site by clicking on the red DEACTIVATE ALL button, or ACTIVATE them all by clicking on the green button.

Navigate to the player by clicking on its name.

 

You can edit the Player Site by clicking the EDIT button at the top. Here you can add details to the Site based on its locality.

These settings filter down to all players at the Site:

  • Give the Site a Name
  • Apply a Store Number if required
  • Give the Site a Region if required*
  • Note the Site’s suburb
  • Apply the State or County of the Site
  • Apply the Site’s postcode and phone number
  • Apply a time zone**
  • Add further details in the Comment field
  • Note the store or branch size in Floor Space
  • Set Transfer Times when data should be sent to the player(s). Useful if you want to avoid critical trading hours for sending files and updates to the player(s).

*Note that you have to set up a Region first. This will apply to all players at the site.

**This will be used by players for time critical settings like Rebooting, Day-Parted playlists or data Transfer Times. Laqorr automatically adjusts for daylight saving.
