Digital signage is not just restricted to wall-mounted landscape screens. We have installed screens in multiple orientations and a variety of configurations. Interactive touchscreens and freestanding totems have also been used for a more engaging customer experience.
In the majority of the reception areas, Barnsley wanted a standout solution to welcome their customers into a professional facility. We have installed a multi-output media player which connects to a number of screens and combines them into one canvas, allowing for a more impactful solution with the content shown across all of the screens at once.
Installing in different sites, with different needs meant each installation site was unique. Commercial grade components were used, including a single rail solution, capable of mounting upto 6 screens, as well as all cable management and strategic placement of the freestanding totems.
We also supplied the cloud-based,
embed , software to allow the content to be managed remotely from a central location. The ability to publish content to a variety of operating systems with different resolutions and orientations makes updating content easy.
“The CMS software is quick, intuitive and straightforward to understand, even to some of our execs with limited experience with previous content management systems.”
Using the embed software, generic content alongside location specific information and timetables can be published from a single place. Advanced scheduling capabilities ensure the most relevant content is being displayed at the correct times, whether that be dependent on the date, time or even weather conditions.

THE FED is a charity based in Prestwich, Manchester that was founded in December 2009, following a merger of THE FED and HEATHLANDS VILLAGE.
THE FED is a leading provider of advice, support and care for Jewish People living in Greater Manchester with a a keen focus on the creation and delivery of an outstanding range of health and social care services for people of all ages. THE FED’s services include; HEATHLANDS VILLAGE care home, children & family social care, adult services including mental health care, cancer support and hospitality services.
THE FED wanted a simple to use digital communication tool capable of showing various information throughout the day, at various locations on their premises.
They needed to be able to show a variety of media content types and schedule information to appear in the relevant areas at specified times of the day. Another requirement was to assign various users to be able to update the content instead of just one main admin user.
After reviewing a range of solutions, THE FED selected Eclipse Digital who supplied a range of Samsung Smart Signage Platform D Series Displays with WiFi powered by the online, cloud based digital signage software; embedsignage.com. This solution provides THE FED with the ability to create multi zone, multi media content and deliver this directly to each display, individually, at any specified time.
Making use of the scheduling functionality and conditional play items, THE FED have complete control over exactly what content is displayed on which display at any given time, providing them the content flexibility desired.
