Step 1: Approve the Display You Will Publish To

Register the device to publish content into MagicINFO Server. Click icon(Device) on the main menu bar.

  1. To add a device to MagicINFO Server, click Unapproved.
  2. A list of devices connected to MagicINFO Server that are waiting for approval appears.
  3. Select a device and click Approve. A window appears where a device can be authorized.
  4. Specify the device name, group, location and expiration date. Click OK. The device has been authorized.
  • The general administrator is only authorized to approve new devices.
  • To delete an unauthorized device without authorizing it, select the device and click Delete.
  • To authorize multiple devices of the same model, select devices and click Approve. If you enter representative names of devices, the device names are saved in the "representative name_(sequence number)" format.
  • For details on managing devices connected to the server, see Managing Devices.
  • Encrypted content that has been downloaded using AISR, which is an external system, can be registered with an extension such as MP4 or JPG to MagicINFO Server and published.
In practice
  • Approve the display into its final group before you publish. In our tests a schedule published to a group that was still empty did not reach a display approved into that group afterwards; publishing the schedule again fixed it.
  • A display that has only just come online can accept the approval, or a first command, without acting on it. A few minutes later, check that it shows the schedule and settings you expect, and repeat the step if it does not; do not take the first "success" as proof.
