With Alleo Admin access, you are able to set a board as the start screen for one or multiple displays. This start screen serves as the "home page" for displays to be navigated back to after various sessions.

How to set the start screen for a display

  1. Identify which board you would like to assign as a display's start screen.

    1. For this example, "Alleo Home" is the name of the board and "Stephanie Browser Testing" is the name of the display.

  2. Go into the board's Share settings and access the "Manage displays" tab.

  3. Share the board with your desired display.

    1. If the board is not shared with your display, the future steps will fail.

  4. Once the board is shared, copy the board link.

  5. Go to admin.withalleo.com and access the Alleo Rooms tab on the left side.

  6. Locate the display's name in the list and click on it to Edit. Paste the board link in the "Start Screen URL" field.

  7. Click "Ok" to save changes.

  8. Restart the Alleo application on your display to see the changes.

    1. To restart the application, access a keyboard connected to your display and type CTRL + SHIFT + U.

    2. This will bring up the Utility menu. Click on "Restart Application".
