iCOMPEL Digital Signage - User Guide (V9.0.3)

You may be interested in adding Ad hoc content to your Channel - this will let you have content that differs on a per

iCOMPEL basis. For example, if you have iCOMPEL players on different sites, you may wish to allow local users to add

messages local to them. Or, if you have iCOMPEL players outside a room, you may wish to show the timetable for that

room. Subscribers will need to have user logins with the appropriate Ad hoc permissions to be able to update content.

You may also wish to manage and publish more than one channel from your publisher. This is achieved using Multi-channel

publishing .

Software Version Compatibility

It is recommended that the publishing iCOMPEL and each subscribing iCOMPEL should run the same software version.

However, a subscribing iCOMPEL running Version 7 software can subscribe to Channels created on a Publishing iCOMPEL

running Version 5.2.3.

Each Subscribing iCOMPEL with a lower software version than the publisher iCOMPEL will fail to subscribe to the

channel if the channel contains features that it does not support.
