FireSign 3.1 Update Release

December 1, 2006

The latest version of FireSign makes digital signage simple.

Now it is easier to:
• Access key functions faster through a new layout
• Access frequently used controls at the top of the page to minimize scrolling
• Use “bread crumb trail” navigation links instead of the function buttons from previous versions
• Use simplified table listings on most screens
• Use a simple search box instead of the filter bar from previous versions

In addition, we have:
• Added the new functions “Duplicate” and “Append” Segments for easier content creation. This makes it easier to merge the scenes from two segments
• Created the new functions “Import” and “Export” Segments for portability and content exchange
• Made it possible to copy segments between projects as well as move media groups and items between projects and libraries

To make scheduling even easier, we added a new calendar-based schedule screen that graphically represents your playback parameters.

You’ll note other enhancements with FireSign 3.1, such as:
• Player refresh intervals can now be set to occur within the timeframe you specify for better network traffic management
• The Player Installation function has been moved from Server to Studio. This saves administrators valuable time
• At the log-in screen we have added a log-in button for users to request that their password be emailed to them

FireSign stand-alone customers with current update subscriptions will receive this update via an enclosed CD-ROM. If we are hosting your FireSign system, you will receive this update automatically. We will contact you with any necessary additional information. Customers who do not have an update subscription can purchase the FireSign 3.1 update by calling toll free 866.548.8778 for details.
