Overview

Create urgent, scheduled or informational alerts and deliver them to selected screens without redesigning a complete slide.

Before you begin

Prepare the alert message, severity, active dates and the screens or groups that should receive it.

Good to know

  • Use Critical only for urgent messages.
  • Set an end time so old alerts do not remain active.
  • Test audio and visual alert behavior on one screen first.

Publishing

After saving the app, add its slide to a playlist and publish that playlist to the required screen. Use Preview to confirm the layout before sending it to a live display.

Step by Step Guide
Step 1: Open Alert Center

Open Apps, select Alert Center, and choose the alert management page.

Step 2: Create an alert

Add a short title and a clear message. Avoid long paragraphs on public screens.

Step 3: Set priority and timing

Choose the alert type, start time, end time and any repeat settings.

Step 4: Select the audience

Choose the screens or screen groups that must receive the alert.

Step 5: Review and activate

Preview the alert appearance, save it, and activate it when ready.

Step 6: Monitor and close

Confirm delivery, then deactivate or archive the alert when it is no longer required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Alert Center create a normal slide?
No. Alert Center can deliver alerts independently, so it does not require a dedicated app slide.
Check its active date and time, target screens, status, and the player connection.
Yes. Deactivate the alert in Alert Center; connected players will receive the updated state.
