Let’s configure it

1. Open your PC browser and type http://instantplay.local in the top bar

2. The first instantPlay Slide configuration page will appear. Here’s how to fill in the various parameters.

This section allows you to choose whether to set a fixed IP with which to access the configuration page of the instantPlay Slide. This IP will always remain the same whether you access via WiFi or Ethernet connection. If you wish to use a static IP, activate the switch (1) and then fill in the fields below (2) with the required data. To retrieve them, simply proceed as follows. If you use Windows, open the start menu, type “cmd” and start the command prompt. Once the command prompt is open, type “ipconfig /all” and press the Enter key. You will see a screen like the one below where you will find IP (1), Subnet Mask (2), Gateway (3), DNS (4). If you use Mac, the fastest way to find your IP address is to open the menuNetwork Preferences and select the network you are using. Now click on the buttonAdvanced , and then select the TCP/IP. Here you will find IP (1), Subnet Mask (2), Gateway (3). To find DNS, just open the DNS tab and then copy and paste the server address (4). Once you have filled in all the fields, click on Save. This setting allows you to connect instantPlay Slide to your network by Wi-Fi. If you leave it set to OFF you will continue to use a wired internet connection. Network name(SSID): enter the name of your Wi-Fi network. Make sure there are no spaces in the name. If you decide to use Wi-Fi, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable once setup is complete. The cable must remain connected, or you would have to load your content using a USB flash drive. This feature allows you to rotate the contents to fit the screen on which they will be shown. If you have a horizontal monitor, select 0°. If your monitor is vertical (portrait), select 90°. In this section you can decide how many seconds each image of the slider should be displayed. 10 seconds is the default time but you can enter whatever you want. In this section you can choose whether or not to enable uploading via File Manager. If you select OFF your content can only be loaded via USB stick. If you select ON you will have to choose whether to use the Local or Cloud File Manager. To do this, simply move the switch to the option you prefer. Let’s see between the two modes what difference there is. Local allows you to upload videos and images that you want to display on your instantPlay Slide locally. Once you have uploaded the contents to the local File Manager, they will appear even without an internet connection. For the procedure for uploading content, please refer to the Upload contents section. Cloud allows you to upload videos and images to your instantPlay Slide wherever you are. In this case, however, the internet connection must always be present so that the player can update and upload new content that are added remotely. If you enable Cloud, you will need to fill in the fields below in the following way before uploading content. If you want to change your password, once you are log in the File Manager, click on the username at the top right. For the procedure for uploading content, please refer to the Upload contents section. If you activate the real-time update, every time the slider is played, the content is automatically updated. If you leave it disabled, instantPlay Slide must be restarted in order to update the contents.

1. 1. • How to restart instantPlay Slide.

        You can do that in two ways:

        • Disconnect and reconnect the instantPlay Slide power supply.

        • Open http://instantplay.local and click Save and restart.

In this section, you can quickly delete all images and videos that have been loaded using a USB flash drive. Simply click on Delete all files. This will display only content uploaded in the local or cloud File Manager. Remember: you are not deleting files from the USB flash drive itself, but you are deleting all the files that you had uploaded using it. Make sure you have removed the USB flash drive from the instantPlay Slide before proceeding. Once you have set all the parameters, click on Save and restart to apply the changes.
