Rendition

The Rendition section of the Manage Displays screen allows you to configure the major aspects of the display server's behavior.  Of particular interest is the Active Mode - you can change it immediately.

 

Click the plus (+) button to expand the section.

 

 

Click the minus (-) button to collapse the section.

 

 

Every display has an aspect ratio.  You can choose the AxisTV aspect ratio that most closely matches the aspect ratio of the device.

 

 

This is probably the most commonly used control on the screen.  You can change the Play Mode of the display by choosing a different mode in the list and clicking Apply Rendition.  The display device will boot to the new play mode.

 

 

Maximum # of Lines

This is a guideline you are establishing to warn users when they choose fonts that are too small.

 

 

Content Refresh Rate (sec)

This value (1-59) determines how often the display server will ask the content server for updates to content (bulletins, videos, crawls).

 

 

Click Apply Rendition to commit all changes to the display device.  The content server updates the display server via a live network conversation - all errors are recorded in the error logs.
