Connecting digital signage displays

Remotely assign digital signage content and manage and monitor the displays/devices.

The displays in the video include the professional, commercial grade displays with an embedded System on Chip (SoC – no additional media player required):

Supported Displays and Players

Samsung Smart Signage Platform:

  • Samsung QB43N – running on SSSP6, Tizen 4.0
  • Samsung DB43J – running on SSSP5, Tizen 3.0
  • Samsung PM32F – running on SSSP4, Tizen 2.4

as well as media players connected to standard screens:

  • Windows player: MINIX NEO Z83-4

All of the digital signage displays and devices have got Rocket Player already installed. In order to be able to remotely assign digital signage content as well as manage and monitor the displays/devices we need to connect (pair) Rocket Player to Rocket Manager. The process is really quick and easy.

Remote Management After Pairing

Once the displays/devices have been paired you get access to the device information such as e.g. temperature, disk, ram or CPU usage. Signage Rocket platform also gives you the device status so you know whether the display is offline or online. On top of that, thanks to live screenshots you can always be 100% certain of what is currently being played on the screen. You can control the device remotely e.g. change the display orientation from landscape to portrait, adjust the brightness, set up display’s sleep schedule to save energy.

How do I pair a new display?

Install the Signage Rocket player on your display, and a pairing code will appear on screen. Enter this code in your Signage Rocket dashboard to connect the display.

Can I manage displays remotely?

Yes. Once paired, all displays are managed through the cloud dashboard from anywhere.

Do I need an internet connection for digital signage?

Yes, an internet connection is required for initial setup and content updates. However, most digital signage players cache content locally, so displays continue to show content even during temporary network outages.

Can I connect multiple displays at once?

Absolutely. Signage Rocket supports bulk device pairing and group management, making it easy to connect and manage hundreds of displays across multiple locations from a single dashboard.

What display models are supported?

Signage Rocket works with Samsung Smart Signage Platform displays (QB, DB, PM series), LG webOS displays (SM series, webOS 3.0+), BrightSign media players, Windows PCs, and Chrome devices. The platform is device-agnostic — if it runs a modern browser, it can run Signage Rocket.

Can I see a live screenshot of what’s playing on my display?

Yes. The Rocket Manager dashboard provides live screenshots from each connected display, so you can always be 100% certain of what is currently being played on screen without physically visiting the location.

Can I control display brightness remotely?

Yes. Through the Rocket Manager dashboard you can remotely adjust the brightness of your displays to suit different lighting conditions — brighter during the day, dimmer in the evening.

Can I switch between landscape and portrait mode remotely?

Yes. You can change the display orientation from landscape to portrait (or vice versa) directly from the dashboard without touching the physical display.

What monitoring data is available for each display?

For each connected display you can see temperature, disk usage, RAM and CPU usage, online\/offline status, and live screenshots. All of this is available in real-time from the Rocket Manager dashboard.

Can I schedule displays to turn off at night?

Yes. Signage Rocket’s sleep scheduling feature lets you set times for displays to automatically turn off and on, saving energy outside of business hours.

Do I need a static IP for my displays?

No. Displays connect to the Signage Rocket cloud platform over a standard internet connection. They work with dynamic IPs, Wi-Fi, or wired ethernet — no special network configuration required.

How do I synchronize content across multiple digital signage screens?

In the Rocket Manager dashboard, you assign displays to groups and publish the same playlist to the entire group. All displays in the group receive the same content schedule. For pixel-perfect sync across a video wall, Signage Rocket supports multi-screen layouts where each display shows its portion of the overall content.

What internet speed do I need for digital signage?

A standard broadband connection (10 Mbps or higher) is sufficient for most digital signage setups. The Rocket Player downloads content in the background and caches it locally, so the display does not need a constant high-speed connection. Even on slower connections, content plays smoothly because it is served from local storage, not streamed.
