Display registration

HP Network Sign Manager allows you to add and manage multiple displays with both Network (Ethernet) and

Serial communications.

Registering a networked display

The following describes how to add a display with Network (Ethernet) communication.

1.

Click Search

on the toolbar. The Signage Monitor Search dialog appears.

2.

Specify a Search Method in the Signage Monitor Search dialog.
There are two search methods:

Search Network for all Displays (DHCP)——Automatically searches display(s) on the same local

network to which the media player/computer running HP Network Sign Manager is connected.

Search Network with Display IP Address—An IP address for the display needs to be entered

manually to search for it and add it to the HP Network Sign Manager register window list. Displays

connected to the external network can also be searched for and added.

NOTE:

Sharing the same network means using the same default gateway and subnet host.

3.

Click Search to search for a display. When the search is complete, the Completed message appears

under Status.

4.

When the search is complete, click Close to close the dialog. You can see the searched display(s) added

in the Monitor Register Window pane of the main window. Under Network Communication, the icon for

the device changes to blue after a successful connection.

The added display is displayed with three different icons depending on the current status as shown below:

Registering a display via serial communication
