Chapter 8 – Publishing Presentations
Publishing with BrightSign Network
Publishing with BrightSign Network enables you to distribute your presentation to your BrightSign players using an
Internet connection.
BrightSign Network requires a subscription, so you must first contact BrightSign to obtain an account name, user name,
and password. Once your BrightSign players are set up with BrightSign Network, you can upload your presentations to
the BrightSign Network server, publish schedules, and manage content. Your players will update their content
automatically whenever they connect to the server.
Publishing with BrightSign Network sends presentations and schedules to groups instead
of players. Groups can contain any number of players, and you can move BrightSign
players from one group to another at any point. See Managing Your Network for details.
To publish with BrightSign Network, complete the following steps:
1. Sign into BrightSign Network by clicking Tools > Sign in to BrightSign Network.
2. Open the presentation you wish to publish by selecting File > Open presentation.
3. Click Upload to network (in the upper-right portion of the screen) to upload the
