Displays

Pair and manage a display

Connect an iPad, TV, Mac, or browser without signing the device into a customer account.

What this does

Pairing uses a short-lived code and saves a device token. The display can then receive content securely without customer credentials.

Step by step

1

Open the pairing page

On the display, visit screen.softworldsystems.com/pair and keep the six-digit code visible.

2

Connect from the workspace

Open Screens, enter the code, name the device, and choose its initial playlist.

3

Assign a layout

Optionally choose a saved layout and confirm the display begins playing.

4

Install on iPad

Use Add to Home Screen for an app-like player, then configure Auto-Lock appropriately for unattended playback.
