Player

Runs your scheduled playlists with images and presentations on a large monitor or projector.
 
Starting the Player

In the scheduler software you can specify for each player how to start the player software. There are 2 options possible; dedicated player and manual player.

A dedicated player will place itself in the Startup folder. When you log on to the computer, this player software will be launched automatically. Further customization of the auto logging on can be set by setting the AutoLogon properties and specifying the username and password. When this option is abled you don't have to press CTRL-ALT-DEL to log on to the system and iPoint will log on automatically.

The manual player must be launched manually via the Start menu. Click Start > All Programs > PresentationPoint > iPoint Enterprise edition > Player.
