CHAPTER 10 – MANAGING YOUR NETWORK
You can use BrightAuthor to manage your BrightSign Network and local networks.
Permissions
Administrators of BrightSign Network accounts can create separate accounts with access to their BrightSign Networks.
These accounts (called User Accounts) can be assigned to roles with various sets of permissions in both the BrightSign
Network WebUI and in BrightAuthor.
Access to the BrightSign Network features in BrightAuthor will depend on permissions that were determined by the
Account Administrator. Regardless of permissions, BrightAuthor appears the same to all users. However, attempting to
use blocked features will result in an error message. If you are an Account Administrator, you must use the web UI to
change a User Account’s permissions in BrightAuthor.
Viewing Unit Statuses
You can view the status of all units on your BrightSign Network or Local Network in BrightAuthor. A range of colors
(green, yellow, red) are used to indicate the status of a BrightSign player. Please see this help article for more information
on what each color means.
Local Network – Viewing unit status on your Local Network lets you view all units and their info, view active presentations
for units, specify a username and password for units, and remove units from the network.
1. Sign in to BrightSign Network by clicking Tools > Sign in to BrightSign Network.
2. Click the Manage tab.
3. Click Local Network (below the Manage tab). Here, a list of all units on the Local Network is displayed. The list
contains all unit names, descriptions, uptimes, and current active presentations.
