Auto-Refresh Menu
The Auto-Refresh menu allows you to select the interval at which the status
information in Remote Manager is refreshed. This includes refreshing the
screenshots as well as all other system information displayed in the different
tabs in the Network pane.
Refresh
Click Refresh to refresh the network information and screenshots manually.
This button is particularly useful when the Auto-Refresh interval is set to Off.
Publish Content
The PDS Remote Manager includes a Publish Content dialogue. This tool is
used to move content packages to PDS Player systems. Please note that, in
most implementations, content updates will be performed through the PDS
Web Controller rather than the Remote Manager.
The Remote Manager communicates directly with remote Players through the
PDS Server. The publication process performs an inventory check against
contents stored on remote Players. If content is missing, the Remote Manager
creates a package to transfer to the Players. A package is a compressed archive
containing all assets missing from the remote Player as well as all content
added through the Publish Content tool.
NOTE: Please remember that each refresh requires data, including a screenshot
image, to be sent from the Player system to the PDS Server and then from the PDS
Server to your PDS Remote Manager. When managing a medium-sized or large
network of Players, you can create a high level of network traffic and risk
overloading your network simply by making your refresh interval too short.
