Chapter 2 – Setting up BrightSign Players

Adding a Player to the BrightSign Network

To publish and manage presentations using BrightSign Network, you must first contact BrightSign to obtain an account

name, user name, and password.

After you obtain your account credentials, you can create the setup files for each unit. The setup files provide details

about what your network and BrightSign Network connections are, where the presentations associated with the selected

group are stored, and when the presentations are scheduled.

1. Sign in to your BrightSign Network account.

a. In the BrightAuthor menu bar, click Tools > Sign in to BrightSign Network.

b. If prompted, enter your Account, User name, and Password, and then click Sign In.

2. On the menu bar, click Tools > Setup BrightSign Unit.

3. Under Name Specification, do the following:

a. Enter a Name and Description for this unit.

b. Select whether you want to append the unit ID to the name or use only the name.

4. Under Network Properties, set the following:

a. Enable Wireless: Check this box if you plan to connect to the local network using a wireless connection. In order

to use a wireless connection, you must purchase a Wireless Module for your BrightSign player. Enter an SSID

and Security key if the player is connecting to a secured network.

b. Network Connection Priority: Use the up and down arrows to prioritize either the Wired or Wireless

connection. The BrightSign player will always attempt to download and upload using the first option. It will only

use the second option if the first is unavailable.

c. Time zone: Select the time zone where the unit is located.

d. Time server: Select the clock for this unit.

5. Click the Advanced Network Setup button to customize advanced settings for your networked player. Specify the

following in the Unit Configuration tab:

a. Specify hostname: Check this box if you want to specify a custom hostname for the player on the network. By

default, the player serial number is used to generate a unique hostname.
