Using Kiosk Mode to launch a URL

Kiosk mode is a function on the player that allows it to securely connect to a CMS and display a custom URL for each of its devices. This feature is useful for businesses that want to display specific web based content on their digital signage displays, such as menus, promotional content, or company announcements.

To configure Kiosk Mode, navigate to the “CMS registration” tab on the player and select “Kiosk mode” from the dropdown menu. Once selected, you will be prompted to enter the URL you wish to display on the player’s screen. This can be a web page hosted on your CMS or a specific URL that you want to display.

This option is available on all SureVues with MVOS or Windows 10 operating systems. This feature provides an additional layer of flexibility for your digital signage network, as it allows you to send content to players using a wide variety of URL based CMS platforms.  It also simplifies the management of your digital signage network, as you can easily configure Kiosk Mode for multiple players at once using Active Network Manager.

An examples of a URL based CMS platform is Screencloud
