LAYOUT
Customize screen "Zones" to fit dynamic content for that time of day. Split the screen or run full screen with custom commercials. The custom timeline determines at what time during the day what content runs on each zone. The zone divider allows for a scrolling feeds for stocks, news headlines, and weather, while live TV runs next to customized content that can dominate the screen and the eyes of customers. The screen zones can change based upon the selected timeline. Therefore, the Walgreen's content can be scheduled to be full screen every 6 minutes, then full screen live TV, then back to a divided screen. Additionally, this customization can be controlled remotely and updated by any grouping desired.

CONTENT CREATION
Leverage existing content and assets from images, Flash files or videos to create dynamic content. Even power point presentations can be converted to Flash and imported. Additionally, basic animation of assets can be created and controlled within the Content Management Studio (CMS).

COMPONENTS
Components are one of the most exciting pieces of the CMS as it allows us access to RSS News, Stock tickers, RSS Weather, RSS Video Podcasts, HTML component, TV Tuner, clocks and more. This can bring a static digital signage to life with local content. Weather can be provided at the zip code level and with integration of the TV Tune,r component the local operator can configure local news or sports. Components can take the digital signage to a customized local interest with control from corporate over branding and promotions.

SCHEDULING
All content and zone layouts can be scheduled based upon time of day, day of week or duration. The scheduling can be controlled down to the individual store level or in predetermined groups. For example the content in a specific zone displaying the food combo on special can be scheduled to change around noon while the rest of the zones stay the same. That same zone can then change again for dinner or late night food or dessert specials. Content can easily be adjusted via the campaign and/ or timeline manager.

UPDATING
Updating the field players is the preferred and easiest method for updating. The units will only update if the CMS directs them to. Otherwise they simply check in utilizing a nominal amount of bandwidth. If broadband internet access is not available the field players can be updated via USB thumb drive. Online content to weather and RSS feeds will not be available without internet access. Schedule, content, campaign managers, commercials, etc can all be updated via the USB update.
