How to Turn an Ordinary TV into Digital Signage

Published · Last updated · By Aloha team · ENTGROUP

An ordinary TV becomes digital signage with Aloha: a Smart TV with a web browser opens the Aloha link directly; otherwise connect an Android box or Windows mini PC, then pair with a 6-digit code.

What do I need?

A TV, internet and an Aloha account (14-day free trial), plus one of these:

  • Android box / Android TV
  • Windows mini PC
  • Smart TV with a web browser
  • ENTGROUP kiosks

What are the setup steps?

Follow this order; no technician or USB needed.

  1. Open the Aloha link on the screen
  2. The screen shows a 6-digit code
  3. Enter the code in the app to pair the screen
  4. Pick content or a template and send it to the screen — no technician or USB needed

Will the TV keep playing offline?

If the internet drops, screens keep playing downloaded content, including after a restart, as long as it downloaded successfully before.

Summary

  1. A Smart TV with a browser works directly; other TVs use an Android box or mini PC
  2. Pair with a 6-digit code, then send content from a browser or phone
  3. Screens keep playing offline once content has downloaded
