The older established method of the coax cable runs create a signal can be less than ideal and does not always display as clearly as desired.
The current solution we are recommending at a few locations as a somewhat limited 'trial' is called Yodeck.
There are several benefits over the current announcement/signage solutions.
- No longer will require coax cable runs.
- Cloud based managing of content.
- Greater flexibility of placement of TVs. (within mounting/power requirements.)
- Minimal maintenance/upkeep other than providing content and initial connection.
Purchasing the 'Annual Plan' for any number of screens and Yodeck will provide the necessary players for those screens(Free or 20$ each options). The option for the 4GB player is anticipated to be a bit more robust with some of the content which may be presented. As we are suggesting the annual plan for the cost savings + included/cheaper players, if the solution doesn't meet expectations or requirements, others may be evaluated with a more specific scope with everyone's' shared experiences. Early feedback from one location indicates they are easily deployed and offer many options of displaying various messages/announcements etc...
Potential next steps to take are listed below.
- Create an account on Yodeck's website.
- Select the number of screens
- Selecting the 'Annual' plan.
- Select the desired plan with supports your anticipated feature requirements.
- Choose between the 2GB player or the 4GB model.
- Beyond these straightforward prompts choosing screens/players/units is Billing. Posted below is an example for (2) screens*.
