The Dashboard shows an overview of all of your players including:

  • Player - the name of your player and the location at which it is installed,
  • Zones - the number of zones the player is servicing,
  • Online - if your player is currently online (connected to the internet),
  • OS Platform - the Operating System that your player's device is running,
  • Software - the software version of the player that you have installed
  • Download - the download status of your latest music update,
  • Storage - the amount of storage space remaining on the device,
  • Uptime - when the player's device last rebooted.

From the Dashboard screen you can select the name of a player, to navigate to the Player Details page to interact and find out more about that player.

Notes:

  • If you only have one player you may be taken straight to the player details page.
  • Your player requires internet access to receive its music updates, so if your player doesn't have access to the internet please attempt the Windows, Android or iOS troubleshooting guide to get back connected. If this does not resolve your connection issues, get in touch with your network provider or us to resolve as quickly as possible.
