|
|
</ul>

<p>If you need to view the generated codes at anytime, click on <strong>Show</strong>.</p>

<li>
|
|
<p>If you have image and video content created outside of the OTS Signs Command Center CMS, follow the guidance in the <strong>Getting Started</strong> section to start uploading and scheduling content to your Displays.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>If you are going to create your content using the OTS Signs Command Center CMS, begin with the <strong>Layouts</strong> section to start creating your own Layout designs either by modifying pre-designed <strong>Templates</strong> or by starting from a blank canvas.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|

|
|
<p><em><strong>Are training materials available for a new user?</strong></em></p>
|
|
<p>We have a selection of videos which complement our user documentation, more information is available from our <a href="/training">Training</a> page.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>I cannot retrieve my recovery codes, what should I do?</strong></em></p>
|
|
<p>If a User no longer has access to their email address/generated codes, an Administrator can reset these from the User grid. Once reset, take the steps to enable from the User Profile.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>What are My Applications from the User Profile?</strong></em></p>
|
|
<p>These are 3rd party applications that a User has authorised to act on their behalf within the CMS. An Administrator can add and configure Applications from the Administration section of the main CMS.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>I cannot see the Notification Drawer, to view or create?</strong></em></p>
|
|
<p>Notifications are enabled by an Administrator for a User using Features, tick to enable options for the appropriate access. Please ensure that a Sending Email address has been included on the Network tab from the Settings page, under the Administration section of the main CMS menu.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>What does the interrupt option do for Notifications?</strong></em></p>
|
|
<p>Using this option will automatically redirect Users to a page to view the notification in full. Please ensure that the Enable Email Alerts option has been enabled from the Maintenance tab from the Settings page, under the Administration section of the main CMS menu.</p>
