Device Mode: Choose the mode based on single device or multiple device configuration.

  • Single Device -  This configuration allows you to use the mobile app and a single device such as tablet for the lookup (scan) and displaying of the board.  Casting or mirroring can be used to share the kiosk's screen to a larger display.  Another example of when to use this configuration is a laptop or chromebook connected to a TV. 
  • Kiosk (Lookup) - Use this mode when you wish to use a dedicated device for lookup and a different device to receive and display the participant selected.
  • Board (Screen): Device will display boards sent to its Board ID by Kiosks that have selected it as the "Send to" destination.

NOTE:  Handheld QR or Barcode readers can be attached and used for the Kiosk scan. 

Board To Display: Choose an option for which board to display. Select a specific board or pick one of the three following special modes:

  • Auto (By Race) - Pick based on the 'race' field of the participant's and as configured in the board editor.
  • Pick on Scan - Prompts user after scan to select from the list of available boards.
  • Random - Pick randomly from the list of available boards.
  • [BOARD NAME X] - Select this particular board to always be displayed.
