Remotely control your hardware’s power settings and app updates
Remote Device Management (RDM) is a powerful feature offered by NowSignage. RDM enables users to efficiently control various aspects of supported hardware directly through the web platform. With this capability, users can remotely manage their digital signage devices without the need for physical access. This includes the ability to install updates, adjust screen brightness, reboot, and set device on/off timers for your displays.
Compatible on:
- Samsung Tizen operating system version 4.0 (SSSPv6) or later.
The RDM feature in NowSignage allows the following remote management functions for Samsung Tizen displays:
1. Display Reboot
2. Set on/off timers for the display
3. Adjust brightness levels
Please note - If the RDM feature is not available in your account, please contact support@nowsignage.com and we will enable this.
To activate this feature, please follow the instructions outlined below:
- Once logged into your NowSignage account begin by going to the 'Apps' area of the platform:
- After entering the Apps section, navigate down the list until you locate the 'Remote Device Management' app:
- Click on the app then 'Install App' to activate it:
- Upon entering the app, you will gain remote control over your selected screens.
- Select the checkbox next to the screen or screens you wish to manage, enabling you to reboot the display, adjust its brightness, and configure on/off timers.
Once an action has been sent to the screen it will appear in the overview section. This will log any activity and allow you to search through that activity:
- Acknowledged: Indicates that the screen has successfully received and processed the command you issued.
- Pending: Indicates that the command has not yet been received by the screen. This status may occur if the screen is currently offline, as commands will only be transmitted when the screen is online and connected to the network.
