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.
