Register and identify screens
- Open the station page on each tablet, TV, kiosk, or operator browser, then confirm it appears online in Devices.
- Give each station a practical name based on its physical location, such as Share counter, Replay TV, or Staff tablet.
- Keep the Devices page open during setup so you can see which screens are connected before guests arrive.
Choose station roles
- Use a sharing station at the guest handoff point so staff can confirm a result, show the QR code, or send the email.
- Use a replay station on a larger screen when guests or staff should browse finished sessions.
- Use kiosk or guided mode for public-facing screens that should stay on a narrow, event-specific flow.
Keep stations on task
- From Devices, send a station to the correct event page instead of walking to the screen and typing a URL by hand.
- For public screens, keep the station pinned to its event role so guests cannot wander into operator-only parts of the app.
- If a screen shows the wrong page during the event, correct it from Devices and confirm the physical display updates.
Pre-event checklist
- Test every station on the real event network before doors open, especially tablets, TVs, and older browsers.
- Confirm power, screen sleep settings, fullscreen mode, Wi-Fi or Ethernet stability, and the station name shown in Devices.
- Walk the real guest flow once: capture, review, share, scan QR, open the link, and replay the result on the intended screen.
Second display & browser device access
Second-display monitor mode
Send eligible dashboard tiles to a connected HDMI monitor from the dashboard's monitor icon. Available from Basic and up.
Browser-based device pages
- Basic keeps browser access to Virtual.ink on the licensed computer only.
- Pro and Pulse extend that access to other devices on the same local network, useful for a remote trigger, a separate operator station, or a guest-facing control screen.
Full screen & hide controls
Full-screen mode and hidden controls remove operator interface chrome from the display guests actually see, keeping public-facing screens clean. Available from Basic and up.
