In the Admin you see a complette overview of the setings under the „Configuration“ tab: What is the Admins’s purpose? The Admin is the central unit of the network. It does: a) Provides the products, prices, categories, screensavers, frames, greetings cards, lab products and so on for the kiosks in your shop. b) Collects the order and transfers them to the lab c) Accepts order by SilverX and Silverlab Pass Studio d) Simple update of prices and products by clicking „update local kiosks“ 4 1.1 Configuration overview Here is an overview about the different settings possible: Thes are subdivided into - System - Products - Diagnostics 1.2 System Here you see: - Initial parameters Digital signage Operators Importieren data Export data Imports from Diland1 Hot folders Centralized configurations Passwords Orders Stats 5 1.2.1 Initial parameters Language: Set the language in which the Admin should appear.

When using several kiosks you should alter the order numbers according to the kiosk (that is kiosk1 = number range 10000, kiosk2 = number range 20000 and so on) Number of days before order elimination: Sets after how many days old orders will be finally deleted. Image quality verification: As with the kiosk you can let display the quality of the photos in relation to the product ordered. Standard is „Medium“. End user name is required: As you can also create order with the admin, you can determine wether you would have to enter a customer name for the order. External working directory: Here you can set up an external working directory.. Centralized configuration code: <open> Kiosk code for the Intouch 24/7 Service: Irrelevant as we do not provide a 24/7 service. 1.2.2. Digital signage In the software you can create your very own screensaver. Sources include: Animations Images Webpage in single file (MHT) Sequences Videos Web pages Random images When using the admin’s function „update local kiosks“the screensaver will be transfered as well. 1.2.3 Operators Currently without function -> will be included in future updates 1.2.4 Import data Imports previously created backups/settings. 6 1.2.5 Export data Backs aup all settings (products, prices, frames, layouts...) 1.2.6 Imports data from Diland1 Irrelevenant as we do not use the Diland1 software. 1.2.7 Hot folders Here we can integrate the Silverlab Pass Studio and SilverX softwares. How to use the hot folders functionality is explained in the manuals “SPS to Admin”or “SilverX to Admin”. 1.2.8 Centralized settings <open> 1.2.9 Passwords Sets special passwords for: - Administrator password Confirm administrator password Operator can setup product prices (yes/no) 1.2.10 Orders In the „orders“ section you find all already produced orders incl. order number, products ordered and images contained in the order.

There are also following possibilities: -“process”-> reprint the complete order - “ Export photos”-> Photos will be saved to a new folder (original images) - “Expport order ”-> Photos will be saved to a folder as they were ordered, incl. cropping, editing and so forth - “Reprint receipt”-> Receipt for the order will be printed anew - “Delete”-> Order is deleted 7 1.2.11 Stats Displays statistical information about the kiosk orders. 1.3 Products 1.3.1 Output profiles Sets the output profiles for printers, minilab, poster output and so on. Only Silverlab has access. Following Minilabs or printers can be set up by our support. If the printers have not been purchased from Silverlab we will impose an installation service fee for the output on that device. Installation will be free of charge when the printer is purchased from Silverlab.. Following output devices are possible: DNP -> DNP or Citizen SDK for Annex 500/2000 Windows Printer -> printing with printer driver Konica -> Konica QD21, R1, R2 Noritsu -> Noritsu QSSxx, Drylabs using CT2, EZ Controller DKS -> DKS Kis, System 8x Surelab Order Controller -> Epson Surelab 3000 using Surelab Order Controller Order Manager -> necessary for AGFA Minilab Folder -> Puts image files to a hot folder, e.g. for posters or unsupported devices Epson D700 -> can be set up for 159 € net per printer Fuji Frontier-S DX100 -> when connected to the Admin HP Designjet ->HP Z3200 using its SDK Silverlab Wholesale Lab -> Whole sale lab (like Litto, CEWE,...) 1.3.2 Products Displays the products and their respective output device. Allows for adding new products or deleting them.. 8 1.3.3 Prices Sets the prices and price breaks for the kiosks. Activates/deactivates products. To the left you see the categories in which the products have been created. There is a position for each product in the list in which you can set the price breaks and total prices, a fixed fee and the order fee. The product name also contains the fulfillment type in parantheses so that you can easily identify where the product will go to. Example: We have a a charitiy event at which every print shall cost 3,50 € kostet. So we enter a fixed fee of 3.34€ as the product itself already costs 0,15 €, so now each photo will be calculated as 3.50€. Service fee is the genereal fee per ordert hat you can set. To the right you can activate/deactivate products and copy & paste prices. 9 1.3.4 Categories Here you can arrange your products into different categories. Taking DPLab as an example you can see how the products are categorized. Online Products is the first button you see in the kiosk menu (if it is a terminal that only sends orderst o a lab). Below that you see the folder for picture products, canvas&co, beneath that the sub-categories for posters, canvas, canvas (öko-Tex). Underneath those folders you than have the different products. You can move entire folders to different categories or only move single products. To the right you see every product produced by DPLab. You can move these products to several categories, so that you can build your own display concept.. Lab-products and lab-workflow cannot be altered as these are checked against the server settings online. 1.3.5 Index print Sets up the index print. Enable index print: Activates index print as a product (yes/no) Fix Fee: Sets a fixed fee for the index print. Rows: How many rows should the index have? Columns: How many columns should the index have? Header: Text that shuld appear at the tp of the index print. Logo: The logo on the index print. Label on images: There are different possbilities of labeling the images: a) No label so only the image b) Incremental number c) File name (standard) 10 Min number of photos: Determines how many photos have to be ordered in the first place to sho the index product at all. Example: Setting = 20 When ordering less than 20 photos, the index will not be orffered as a product, when ordering more than 20 the index product will appear. Max size (in mm of the channels to include: Defines up to which size an index print is feasible. E.g. for posters it does not make sense to print a poster sized index. Here: max. 20x30 print. 1.3.6 Receipt Sets the values for the receipt print. Receipt printer: Selects the receipt printer from the printers installed Prints the receipt for the customer: Wether the customer gets a receipt (yes/no) Prints the receipt for the shop: Wether a receipt is printed for the shop (yes/no)) Language used for the receipt: Select language to be used for the receipt print Title: Shop name Line 1: Addresse line 2: Addresse and phone number Footer: Bottom line of the receipt Save a receipt file for each order in this directory: Allows saving the receipt as a file in the folder specified. 1.3.7 Frames Lets you integrate new frames into the system. They will be displayed in the editing screen of the kiosk in „graphics“.

E.g. frames intended for the 10x15 aspect ratio will not work with 13x18 products and therefore will not be displayed. Our backups already contain some frames and will add them automatically to the program when imported. 1.3.8 Update local kiosks This button is the most important one and will send the settings to the kiosks. From the Admin all settings regarding products, categories, output profiles, frames, prices, lab products, and screensavers and so on will be transmitted to the kiosks. The only settings you have to do on the kiosks themselves are the VAT and the specifics for your workflow.

Backups will add products to your existing product range, that is if you import the same backup two times you will end up with doubled products. Before you import a backup two times remove the old backup or old categories first. 2.3 How do I create products from scratch? Example: Creating a new Fuji DX100 product Leave the resolution on 300x300 and confirm with „OK“. In this example we use the output profile for the Fuji DX100. Now we can choose the profile and which paper surface are displayed in the kiosk. Please deactivate the surface “matte” generally” for DX100 as this profile is outdated. Currently there are no matte consumables available. Fine art matte (different paper type) has its very own button . For posters, canvas and giftsuse the „Folder“ output profile. It is important to set the output folder where the photo is saved to. It is common practice to use hierarchies on which the photos are saved. 15 2.3.2 Choosing a product or defining a new one Product creation is very much the same for each product type. Simply click on „new“ and choose from the list. >Content Print „Print“creates prints, posters and greeting cards. Prints and posters are created identically. Both require a product name and a size. 16 To define a standard size just click on „Channel”. A new window appears which lets you choose from the output profile and sizes. >Content Greeting cards/ frames Almost the same procedure applies to greeting cards except that they require you to add layouts using the function “frames”. Click on “frames”, then click on new, a window appears asking you wether you want to add a coloured border or frame from .png file. Click on „frame from .png file“and select the frame. You created. Please note that the frame has to be made transparent. If you want to you can also enter a name for the frame. Confirm with “ok”. 17 Greeting cards can be sorted in categories. 18 >Content Collages / Posters Collages should not be created using the „collages“ function“ but using „posters“ instead“, the settings are the same as with other print products, please not that you have to add the orientation. >Content Canvas With the „canvas“function you can set rows and columns and the width of the border. Additionally you can set wether the border should be printed on (so that a part of the photo is reverted) or be left blank. To create separated canvas, e.g. a three times split canvas, you can set in the product how many rows and columns the product shall have. The plotting will be done automatically in the kiosk software. 19 >Content Calendars In the calendar setting you have the following possibilities: a. How many months per page? b. Orientation vertically or horizontally c. Includes cover yes or no d. All available languages or just one language e. Holidays from all available countries or just from a single country 20 >Content Gifts In the gifts setting you can add additional sizes e.g. for t-shirts or different colours for mugs: Simply click on sizes in the product window and in the next window auf „new“, enter a name and an image for the icon. Then confirm with „ok“the new size is now doislayed under the sizes. The same applies to colours when you click on „colors“instead of „sizes“. For each product there is a button „box“with which you can edit the button displayed in the kiosk. 21 2.3.3 Prices Prices and price breaks can be set very easily. Simply go to “Prices”and enter the price. The same applies to price breaks.. Price breaks can be obtained by klicking on „add“beneath the price. A new line appears asking you for the amount and the reduced price. to delete a price break click on the line and hit the „remove“ button. Service fee represents the order fee and has to be entered for each product individually. To deactivate a product uncheck the box next to „visible“. Fix fee: the fee entered there will be added to the products price. 2.3.4 Assigning product to a product category The boxes menu can be designed freely. For that you only have to create categories and assign prodcts to them. You can create as many sub-categories as you wish. To create a category click on „New category“, then enter the name, background colour, font and add in the icon. After adding in the categories the products have to be added to the categories. First select the category, then drag & drop the product to the target-category. The products can be found on the right. The products can sorted with the arrow-buttons. It is also possible to add the same product to several categories at once. 22 Part 3 – FAQ 3.1. What do I have to set up in Silverlab Kiosk Admin generally?
