Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing SignWave, Keywest Technology’s cloud-based digital meeting room signage system. This manual briefly describes the tools and features in SignWave, so you can quickly begin creating and delivering high quality content to your meeting room signs. SignWave is integrated with Microsoft Exchange and meetings booked on an Exchange room calendar are automatically displayed on the corresponding digital meeting room sign. The SignWave digital meeting room signage software is built into another digital signage platform called Breeze. Breeze digital signage can be used in conjunction with SignWave if both systems were purchased. Full access to both SignWave and Breeze enables meeting room signs to display full-blown digital signage alongside the meeting room event data. If SignWave only purchased, the Breeze platform is still used to deliver content to the digital meeting room signs. TECHNICAL SUPPORT Questions and issues can be submitted to the Keywest Technology Support department via e-mail, phone, or the helpdesk ticketing system. Contact information: E-mail: tech@keywesttechnology.com Phone: 1-800-331-2019, Option #2 Helpdesk: http://helpdesk.keywesttechnology.com This user manual details interactions in the SignWave widget only. Please refer to the Breeze Quick Start Guide for information about how to update the signs, schedule content, and more. Breeze Knowledgebase: http://helpdesk.keywesttechnology.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/List/Index/113/breeze-version-2 3 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL BREEZE ARCHITECTURE SignWave is digital meeting room signage software nested within another, more robust digital signage software called Breeze. Breeze is a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) software. Wikipedia states “...software as a service is a…model in which software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted…sometimes referred to as "on-demand software." SaaS software is typically accessed by users…via a web browser.” Accessing the software with a web browser means access is reliant upon the local Internet connection. The advantage offered by SaaS software is the hardware, operating system, and system updates sustaining the Breeze server are not maintained by the organization using the system. The organization’s IT department does not have to upkeep the system and users can access the SaaS software from anywhere with an Internet connection. A playlist, in its most basic form, is a sequence of media content. Playlists are built in the Editor, encased in a schedule in the Scheduler tool, and delivered to the signs in the Players tool. A Breeze Player is the application that maintains the player operations, such as the sign’s playback, scheduling, dynamic data, and more. Different SignWave layouts and designs can be applied to different digital meeting room signs by creating different playlists. In a similar process, different SignWave layouts and designs can be scheduled to display during a specific time period (such as during the lunchtime hour or on holidays). The layout and design of a digital meeting room sign is constructed in a SignWave widget within a Breeze playlist. Users who did not purchase Breeze (full-blown digital signage) with SignWave (digital meeting room signage) will most likely not be aware of this. Many Breeze software functions that are not used in conjunction with SignWave only are restricted. SignWave users that also purchased full-blown Breeze digital signage will have a far greater flexibility. This user can display the SignWave event data software alongside regular digital signage, including features such as local weather images or news crawls on the meeting room signs. This also allows event data to be displayed on just a region of the screen, instead of filling the entire screen as mandated in SignWave only playlists. This user manual details interactions in the SignWave widget only. Please refer to the Breeze Quick Start Guide for information about how to send playlists to the meeting room sign, schedule playlists to display at specific times, and more. 4 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL OVERVIEW SignWave can initially seem daunting, with approximately 70 possible fields in 11 different panels. However, this amount of settings allows users to customize meeting room signs to suit the particular needs of the facility. SignWave content can be divided into two types: Event Data and Other Media features. The appearance of the event data is modified in the Current Event View and Event List View panels. Some options related to interactive features available to viewers are also located in these panels, such as buttons and swipe functions. The Room Name, Digital Clock and Logo features provide additional media items to compliment event data. These features are grouped together in a section called Other Media. Administrative Interactions manage features that allow an administrator or a designated official to perform certain operations directly from the meeting room sign. The Master PINs, Instant Event, and Report Issue panels all pertain to Administrative Interactions. 5 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL EVENT DATA OVERVIEW Four pieces of data are obtained from a Microsoft Exchange server to use in conjunction with SignWave. These pieces of data are: 1. 2. 3. 4. Location Subject Event “booker,” or the name of the email address requesting the meeting Start and end time of the event In SignWave, these four pieces of event data are referred to as: 1. Room 2. Title 3. Name 4. Time By default, the default (Current Event View) layout positions the Title event data on the first line, Name event data on the second line, and Time, or duration of event, on the third line. 6 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL GETTING STARTED To design a meeting room sign layout, a Breeze playlist must first be created. Please refer to the Breeze Quick Start Guide for more information about the New Playlist tool, screen units, zones, and the Widgets panel. Click the New Playlist button at the top of the Editor to create a new set of content for the meeting room sign. The Screen Units fields require the resolution of the sign, or the number of pixels the connected screen can display in each direction. Enter a name for the playlist and select Template 1 to begin with one full-screen zone, ideal for a SignWave widget. After creating a playlist with a zone, locate the SignWave widget in the Widgets panel. Click on the widget label and drag it into a zone. Once the mouse button is released, the SignWave widget window opens. 7 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL GETTING STARTED (CONTINUED) At the most basic level of functionality, SignWave requires just valid credentials to produce a suitable playlist for testing a meeting room sign. Credentials are entered in the Authentication fields of the Basic Details panel. By default, the SignWave widget creates a playlist that is simply white text on a black background—not very exciting! The Basic Details panel also contains a checkbox to include a background image in the meeting room sign layout. Please refer to the Background Image section on page 12 for more information about this topic. The SignWave widget is composed of eleven panels in an accordion-style menu. The fields, or settings, in each of these panels are grouped together based on functionality. The SignWave widget menu panels can be consolidated further into just five groups to simplify the functions and features of SignWave. These groups are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Basic Details Event Data - includes Current Event View and Event List View panels Other Media - includes Room Name, Digital Clock, and Logo panels Administrative Interactions - includes Master PINs, Instant Event and Report an Issue panels Miscellaneous & Theme This user manual addresses all possible settings based on these five groups. The functions and features of each panel are detailed at the beginning of the section in paragraph form. At the conclusion of most sections, a table is provided with a list of all fields in the panel and a brief description of each field. A similar table on the following page provides an overview of each panel in the SignWave widget. 8 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL BASIC DETAILS The most important item in the Basic Details panel is the Authentication field. These credentials enable the SignWave software to collect event data from a Microsoft Exchange server. Other fields in the Basic Details panel are related to the general design of the sign, such as adding a background image or altering the button location. PROVIDER & AUTHENTICATION Microsoft Office 365 Exchange is selected by default in the Provider field. A selection for Microsoft Server Exchange is available for on-premise Exchange servers. Authentication consists of Exchange room account email addresses and their corresponding passwords. It is the Provider and Authentication credentials that enable a meeting room sign to automatically display events booked on an Exchange room calendar. To enter credentials, type the full email address of a room account in the Username field and the corresponding password for that account in the Password field. The Verify Credentials button validates account information for each room and ensures the Exchange server event data is accessible to the SignWave software. Click the small plus sign button to add an additional set of room credentials. It is ideal to add multiple room credentials to a SignWave widget so the same playlist can be sent to multiple rooms at once; this ensures a uniform appearance and adds ease to management of the system. A room is designated to each sign in the Players tool of the Breeze server. After the initial setup is complete, a user can simply alter one playlist and send the same update to all of the signs. To remove a room account, select the Delete button. Unused sets of Authentication room email address and password fields should be deleted, or the SignWave widget is unable to save and an error message alerts the user: 10 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL ORIENTATION The Orientation field rotates the screen display of a meeting room sign in 90° increments. This feature supports installations of signs in a portrait style, or rotated 90° to produce a sign that is taller than it is wide. Landscape mode Portrait mode The Orientation field also allows for the light indicator on the devices with LED lights to be positioned at any of the four edges. For example, the LED light is on the bottom of the device when the sign is installed in a default landscape style. A device can be installed upside down to position the LED light at the top of the sign, and the screen display must be rotated 180° to accommodate this custom installation. 11 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL BACKGROUND IMAGE A SignWave meeting room sign begins to function as soon as a playlist with a SignWave widget and valid Authentication credentials has been sent to a player device associated with a room. Please refer to the section of the Breeze Quick Start Guide for more information about sending a playlist with a SignWave widget to a player, or sign. Players, or signs, are associated with a room during the software installation; please refer to the SignWave Software Installation Guide for more information about this topic. The default settings for a SignWave widget generate white text on a black background. Technically, this is white text on the lack of a background. Adding a background image greatly improves the appearance of the sign! A Default Background Image is not necessary when full-blown digital signage is used in conjunction with SignWave. This is because the SignWave widget can be layered over other content in a playlist, such as a moving video background or sequence of media content. However, the Default Background Image feature can simplify the process of creating a meeting room sign playlist for new users. 12 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL BACKGROUND IMAGE (CONTINUED) The checkbox for Use Default Background Image must be enabled for the Default Background Image field to be visible. The images available in the Default Background Image drop down list correspond to the image files in the Media panel of the Breeze Editor. Please refer to the Media Panel section of the Breeze Quick Start Guide for information about how to upload images to the Breeze server. By default, a background image is stretched or compressed to fill the background area. If a playlist is built in a resolution of 1280 x 800 and the image selected as for the background is 1280 x 720, then the image is stretched 80 pixels in the vertical direction to fill the background area of 1280 x 800. Default Background Image Cover maintains the aspect ratio of the background image so stretching and compressing of the image is eliminated. When Default Background Image Cover is selected, the image fills the background area starting from the top left corner of the image. The image is cropped at the bottom or right edge to fill the background area while maintaining aspect ratio. The image in the example below is stretched in the horizontal direction to fill the sign. When Default Background Image Cover is enabled, the bottom of background image is cropped to maintain the aspect ratio and still fill the background area. 13 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL OTHER BASIC DETAILS The next three fields, Show Expired Events, Button Location, and Reset View Delay will most likely be more relevant to a user after reviewing the Event Data sections on pages 18-27. SHOW EXPIRED EVENTS The Show Expired Events is a feature that enables a sign to display data for events that concluded earlier in the day. When the Show Expired Events checkbox is disabled, the event data on a meeting room sign includes only ongoing and upcoming events. The most obvious place this setting makes an impact is in Event List View. The Current Event View is also mildly affected by the Show Expired Events feature via swipe functions. An arrow will only exist at the right edge of the event data when a viewer can swipe to see future events; if there aren’t any more events scheduled in the room to view, an arrow will not exist at the right edge of the event data. An arrow will not exist at the left edge when the Show Expired Events checkbox is disabled. Please refer to the Swipe Functionality section on page 35 for more information about this topic. 14 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL BUTTON LOCATION Interactive buttons appear on a meeting room sign after the screen is activated by a viewer’s touch. Settings to enable and disable these buttons are located in the SignWave panel related to each button’s function. On the sign, all buttons are grouped together in one location at the top or bottom. This position is determined by the Button Location setting. The features grouped under the label of Other Media are Room Name, Digital Clock, and Logo. These media items alternate with the position of the buttons in the SignWave widget. The Button Location field determines the position for the Other Media items as well, even when all interactive buttons have been disabled. By default, the bottom of the sign is selected in the Button Location field. This means the Other Media items are positioned the top. When Top is selected in the Button Location field, all buttons are positioned at the top of the SignWave widget and the Other Media items are positioned at the bottom. 15 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL RESET VIEW DELAY A meeting room sign can be left in an undesirable layout due to interactive features when a viewer ceases interaction, such as displaying the events for a future day. Reset View Delay is the amount of time that must pass before a sign returns to the standard event data layout. The time is reset each time an interaction with the screen occurs. Layouts accessed by viewer interactions include other event data views and any layout associated with the Instant Event and Report an Issue features. If all interactive functions are disabled, then the Reset View Delay field is irrelevant. Please refer to the Interactivity section on page 33 for more information about this topic. When a designated official pauses in the process of using the Instant Event or Report an Issue feature for more than the amount of Reset View Delay time, the sign will return to the standard event data layout and the designated official will have to begin the process again. Please refer to the Administrative Interactions section on page 37 for more information about this topic. 16 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL EVENT DATA The Current Event View layout displays one ongoing or upcoming event at a time, while the Event List View layout displays a list of the events for the current day. Three pieces of information make up the SignWave event data: Title, Name, and Time. Please refer to the Event Data Overview section on page 6 for more information about the event data obtained from Microsoft Exchange. The default settings for the SignWave widget have been chosen to provide a basic layout that can be easily customized. The Current Event View is the default layout for meeting room signs, but setting pertaining to the Event List View layout also of interest as interactive buttons display a list view when activated by a viewer. The SignWave widget requires two items before it can function, event data and an event layout. One of two checkboxes must be enabled to determine the event data layout: 1. Enable Current Event View checkbox in the Current Event View panel 2. Enable View By Day checkbox in Event List View panel Current Event View and Event List View are both enabled by default. If neither the Current Event View nor the Event List View checkboxes are selected, SignWave cannot proceed and an error message informs the user. 18 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL CURRENT EVENT VIEW The Current Event View is enabled as the standard default event data layout in a new SignWave widget. Unselecting the Enable Current Event View checkbox disables the Current Event View layout and instead displays events in a list view. The default layout of the Current Event View is exactly as pictured on page 6: the Title of the event is displayed in the largest text size on the first line, Name on the second line in a smaller text size, and Time in a slightly smaller size on the third line. Each of these three lines is able to display the Title or Name or Time event data. The type of data in each line is determined by the First Line, Second Line and Third Line fields of the Current Event View panel. Settings for the font, text size, and text color pertaining to each line are listed immediately after the corresponding Line field. By changing the event data selected in the First Line, Second Line and Third Line fields and adjusting the font sizes, a layout with a smaller Time data over the Title and Name data can be created. In fact, a multitude of Current Event View layouts can be created with the flexibility of this design! 19 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL CURRENT EVENT VIEW (CONTINUED) If None is selected in the First Line, Second Line or Third Line field, a line of event data is omitted from the layout. In the image below, None is selected in the Second Line field, which previously contained the Name event data. The First Line and Third Line event data types of Title and Time are repositioned to compensate for the absent line of event data. Note: When None is selected, the settings for the font, text size, and text color pertaining to that line remain visible but are irrelevant. The line of event data with the largest text size is vertically centered in the SignWave widget. If the Time data was a larger font size then the Title data in the image above, then the Time would be vertically centered. The Title is moved up in the event area of the SignWave widget to continue to be the data type in the First Line. The horizontal placement of all three lines of data is determined by the Alignment field in the Current Event View panel. 20 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL NO CURRENT EVENT IMAGE When there is no current event taking place in the meeting room, the area that normally displays event data is blank. This is not desirable of a digital sign and a feature is included to display an image when no event data is available. This is the Show Image For No Current Event feature. Enabling the checkbox labeled Show Image For No Current Event reveals two additional fields: No Current Event Image and No Current Event Image Fill. An image is selected in the No Current Event Image field by filename. The list of images in the No Current Event Image field corresponds to the image files in the Media panel of the Breeze Editor. Please refer to the Media Panel section of the Breeze Quick Start Guide for information about how to upload images to the Breeze server. Images selected in the No Current Event Image field may be stretched or cropped to fill the empty event data area. No Current Event Image Fill maintains aspect ratio of the image while filling as much of the empty event data area as possible. Images that are too large are typically cropped at the edges; images that are too small are expanded. If a portrait-style image is selected for a sign installed in a traditional landscape-style, the top and bottom edges of the image are cropped to fill more of the width of the sign. In the example below, the selected image is 1800 x 690, which is much too large for the common meeting room sign screen of 1280 x 800. Enabling the No Current Event Image Fill checkbox reduces the image size to fit in the area for event data while maintaining aspect ratio. 21 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL OTHER CURRENT EVENT VIEW FEATURES When there is no ongoing event in the room but an event is scheduled at a later time, data for the upcoming event can be displayed on the sign prior to its onset. The amount of time an event is previewed in determined by the Upcoming Event Threshold field. An event can be previewed for up to six hours prior to onset and event previews can be disabled by selecting Don’t show upcoming events. An upcoming event preview will take precedence over the No Current Event Image function, but the No Current Event Image still displays when there is no ongoing event OR preview event data available. When additional event information is available in the Current Event View layout, small arrows appear at the vertical edges of the event data. These arrows indicate additional event information can be viewed by swiping on the screen. This swipe function can be disabled by removing the mark in the Enable Swipe Next and Previous checkbox; the color of the arrows is determined in the Swipe Previous and Next Arrow Color field. Please refer to the Swipe Functionality section on page 35 for more information about this topic. 22 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

To display a list of events at the standard event data layout, the Enable View by Day checkbox in the Event List View panel must be selected AND the Enable Current Event View checkbox in the Current Event View panel must be unselected. The View by Week checkbox adds an interactive button to the sign allowing a viewer to look ahead at events occurring in the room for the next six days. Please refer to the View By Buttons section on page 34 for more information about this topic. T O U TILIZE A L IST V IEW L AYOUT : 1. Remove the mark in the Enable Current Event View checkbox in the Current Event View panel. 2. Confirm the Enable View by Day checkbox is selected in the Event List View panel. 3. Apply formatting to the list view layout with the fields in the Event List View panel, if desired. The same three types of data: Title, Name and Time can be selected as the event data type to display in three columns. If None is selected in Column 1, Column 2, or Column 3, the event data is limited to just two columns. 24 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc. All Rights Reserved 14563 W 96th Terrace • Lenexa KS 66215 USA • Need Support? Mailto:Support@keywesttechnology.com M ICROSOFT E XCHANGE -S IGN W AVE W IDGET U SER M ANUAL EVENT LIST VIEW (CONTINUED) In addition to Title, Name, and Time event data types, the selections in the Column fields of the Event List View include a Room event data type. The Room event data type is typically only utilized when a meeting room sign is specially configured to be shared between two rooms. The font, text size, and text color of event data are uniform in the Event List View layout. The Font, Font Size, and Color fields apply to the event data text in list views for both the current day and upcoming days of the week. EVENT LIST ARROW COLORS A small triangular arrow indicates the current event in the list, and this arrow color can be modified in the Current Event Arrow Color field.

The Other Media items are aligned at the top or bottom of the sign; the vertical alignment alternates with the Button Location field detailed on page 15. The Button Location determines the vertical position of the Other Media items even when all interactive buttons are disabled. Although the vertical alignment is shared between the three Other Media items, horizontal alignment of each media item can be defined independently. The Horizontal Alignment fields offered in each of the Room Name, Digital Clock, and Logo panels provide a variety of layouts to display the Other Media items. The default settings in the SignWave widget position the Room Name in the left corner and the Digital Clock in the right corner. Another popular arrangement is to position the Room and Digital Clock in the left corner and a Logo Image in the right corner.

The first interactive feature is a series of buttons: View By Hour, View By Day, and View By Week. These buttons provide additional information about upcoming events in the room and appear on the screen after it is activated by a viewer’s touch. All buttons are grouped together and positioned at the top or bottom of the sign. The button location alternates with the position of the Other Media items: Room Name, Digital Clock, and Logo. The Button Location field is located in the Basic Details panel. The second interactive feature also provides information about upcoming events, but additional events are displayed as the viewer swipes the screen. Small arrows at the edges of the event data, indicating swipe functions are available to the viewer. Lastly, there is a set of interactive features, referred to as Administrative Interactions, designed to allow designated officials to perform certain tasks directly from the sign. These features are Instant Event and Report an Issue; access to both of these features can be secured by a PIN number.

All buttons are hidden when the sign is at rest and only appear after being activated by a viewer touching the screen. After a specified amount of time without interaction, the sign returns to the standard event layout. The Reset View Delay field, located in the Basic Details panel, determines the specified amount of time before the standard layout returns. The View By Hour and View By Day buttons switch between event data layouts and are directly linked to the Enable Current Event View and Enable View By Day checkboxes. Enabling both checkboxes produces a current event standard layout but allows a viewer to see a list of events by selecting the View By Day button. The View By Week button is enabled or disabled by selecting Enable View By Week in the Event List View panel and has no effect on the event data layout when the Enable View By Day checkbox is also selected. If the Enable Current Event View and the Enable View By Week checkboxes are selected, the standard layout displays the current event but viewer can also see a list of events by selecting the View By Week button. When just the Enable Current Event View or Enable View By Day checkbox is selected, View By buttons are automatically removed. This is because there is only one layout, or view, possible. For example, if the Current Event View is disabled, the View By Hour button is removed because there is not an event data layout to display one event at a time. 34 Copyright © 2017 Keywest Technology, Inc.

Access to the Instant Event button is secured with a PIN number created in the Master PINs panel. After a valid PIN number is entered, the Instant Event feature provides controls to select the time and duration for the event and a list of possible Titles for the event. An Instant Event is displayed in the standard event data layout. When a Current Event View is utilized, an Instant Event displays alone on the sign during the event duration. When an Event List View is utilized, an Instant Event displays in the list along with other events for the day. The Title selected during the creation of an Instant Event on the sign is displayed in the Title event data type location, and the duration of the Instant Event is displayed in the Time location. Please refer to the Event Data Overview section on page 6 for more information about event data types. The Instant Event feature is prized for its ability to accommodate last minute updates and corrections; limiting events to the current day is ideal for this functionality. However, scheduling capabilities in the Instant Event feature can be limited several ways. The most extreme method is to disable the Instant Event feature entirely.

Will the sign display all events for the day, or just the current event? Will the SignWave widget include a room name, a digital clock or a logo image? Will the sign offer interactive buttons? A flowchart of the SignWave design process can streamline creation of a SignWave widget that achieves the meeting room sign appearance and functionality a user envisions. This process begins once the Authentication settings have been verified and the SignWave device is displaying event data. When the Current Event View AND the View By Week or View By Day buttons are utilized, a user must modify the settings in both the Current Event View and Event List View panels to maintain consistent formatting of event data text when a viewer interacts with the sign. The Enable Current Event View checkbox must be disabled to utilize the Event List View as the standard layout. The settings in the Current Event View panel are not applicable when this checkbox is disabled. When the View By buttons are not utilized in a Current Event View layout, settings in the Event List View panel are not applicable.

Sometimes, a picture is worth a thousand words! 1 The first example layout is the default layout. This is the layout that is used as an example throughout this manual and is created by adding a dark-colored background image to the defaults in a newly created SignWave widget. This example layout is included primarily as an educational reference. Arrows are displayed at the vertical edges of the event data to interactive swipe functions and the Show Expired Events feature. If the Show Expired Events checkbox was disabled, an arrow would not be displayed at the left edge of the event data area because a previous event is not available. 2 The second example layout utilizes the Event List View layout; this means Enable Current Event View checkbox is disabled. Top is selected as the Button Location and this field alternates with the Other Media items, which now display at the bottom of the SignWave widget. All buttons are disabled in this example layout but the Button Location field determines the location of the Room Name, Clock, and Logo media items regardless. 3 The prior two layouts selected the same color for all color fields. The third layout utilizes different colors for text in the middle of the sign and at the edges of the sign. This layout also omits a line of event data by selecting None in the Third Line field of the Current Event View panel. Finally, the Room Name was altered from the Microsoft Exchange resource account name “Gallery” to display “The Gallery.” This is accomplished utilizing the SignWave Options in the Players tool.
