  1. 1
    Preset

    Choose the agreed site or event name. Do not edit the name.

  2. 2
    Selected / running

    Check how many sources are configured and how many are already running.

  3. 3
    Start all

    Press once only if the whole preset is required. Otherwise start one tile.

  4. 4
    Tiles

    Wait for each tile to become ready or show a useful error.

  5. 5
    Stop all

    Stop the views when monitoring is finished.

You are finished when the required tiles were checked and continuous views have been stopped when no longer needed.

Large grids use more network and player resources. Use the smallest preset that does the job.

#Operate the grid

  • Wait for tiles to establish before refreshing the whole page.
  • Use tile status messages to identify one failed source.
  • Open the player detail for investigation rather than troubleshooting inside the grid.
  • Stop or leave the grid when continuous monitoring is no longer needed.
