FAQ

Common questions

Do I need a dedicated player or can I use a PC?

A dedicated SMP player is preferred where stable, purpose-built playback matters. Supported smart displays, Android devices, Windows PCs and browser-enabled endpoints may use CAYIN Signage Player when compatibility is verified.

How many screens can I manage?

The practical scale depends on the endpoint type, CMS architecture, licensing, network design, content workload and availability target. PNSS confirms the suitable topology during design.

What CMS is right for my organisation?

CMS-SE is designed around larger SMP-NEO player networks. CMS-WS may suit mixed supported appliance and software-player endpoints requiring browser-based management.

Can I integrate with my existing systems?

Compatible web content, APIs and SDKs can connect approved business information to the signage workflow. Data source, security, update frequency and fallback content must be defined first.
