Digital Signage

Centro turns screens around your building into managed digital signage — welcome boards, room displays, wayfinding, dashboards and promotional content — all driven from the same platform you use to manage rooms, bookings and devices.

A screen you manage in Centro is called a signage player. Once a player is connected, you decide what it shows and where it belongs, and Centro keeps it up to date automatically.

How it fits together

Digital signage in Centro is built from four simple pieces:

PieceWhat it is
Signage playerA physical screen registered in Centro (it appears as a connector under Signage Players).
ContentWhat the screen displays — an HTML Template or a UI Layout (see Signage Content).
LocationThe room or space the player belongs to. Content can adapt to the location it's shown in.
AssociationThe link that assigns a piece of content (and a location) to a player.

To bring a screen live you assign content and a location to a player. That's it — Centro handles delivery to the device.

Live by design

  • No manual refresh. When you change a player's content or update the underlying template, the screen updates on its own.
  • Location-aware. Content can include live details from the room it's placed in.
  • Always visible status. Each player reports its health back to Centro, so you can see at a glance whether a screen is online (see Player Status Monitoring).

Supported players

Centro's supported signage-player platform is BrightSign. BrightSign players are added and managed with zero-touch provisioning — you register a player by its serial number and it links itself to Centro automatically, with no pairing code to type on the screen.
