Philips Conference Display Guide
Philips Conference Display
The conference display is designed to autoplay a Yodeck Signage playlist when turned on. After turning on the screen will initiate and menus will not be accessible for a short time. A ‘waiting’ message should display. When this has disappeared the Yodeck playlist should start and main menu can be access by either pressing the home button or pressing ok on the remote.
The display also has a USB drive loaded with content as a backup.
If any additional content is needed on the day there are two options to facilitate this:
- Manually update the media files on the USB drive and play them through the app menu.
- Make sure the white hotspot box on plugged in to the back of the TV is turned on. This can be done by pressing the middle button.
Unfortunately the automatic screensaver playlist is not easily accessible but will remain as an emergency fallback option.
