• Multi-Zone w/ both Landscape and Portrait Orientation
Infochannel features Multi-Zone capability. Define any area of the screen for messages, photos, text crawls, sidebars and date/time stamps, clocks and more. Zones handle all types of media including text, graphics, video and animation. Typical setups include 3 zones, but individual Player
configurations can be set to any number of zones and you can change zone layouts on-the-fly without any interruption to the currently running playlist. Scala Infochannel also
allows easy switching between Landscape or Portrait orientation.
• Multi-Channel Output on Select Models
Choose from either Rackmount Players that allow dual channel output or Mini Players that feature Single Channel output. Each player can drive a single display or multiple
displays using HDMI, DVI or VGA. Each channel plays its own unique series of messages, images and videos including multi-zoned screens. Each channel features the ability to
schedule messages, photos, images and videos. Dual channel output means that you can use a single player to drive two independent outputs instead of using a dedicated Player
for each channel. This effectively reduces cost of ownership for installations where multiple channels are desired.
• Powerful Scheduling
Infochannel offers advanced scheduling features using a simple point-and-click calendar system. Just click on that date, set the “Start Time” and “End Time” and Infochannel will
play your message(s) accordingly. Scheduling is available for any zone and Infochannel supports scheduling of entire playlists or individual elements (like a JPEG photo or MPEG
video) w/ a few mouseclicks.
• Lighter Footprint on your Network - Infochannel is Built Smarter - from the Ground Up.
Like other signage systems, Infochannel allows remote control of the players via LAN/WAN or Internet. But unlike other systems, Infochannel performs its daily tasks without
imposing heavy bandwidth loads required by competing products. Many systems employ IP video streaming architecture, which puts heavy loads on your network - creating a
network bottleneck. SCALA knows your IT dept. doesn’t want systems that slow the network. Infochannel is built smarter - from the ground up.
