SalesDash Player

The SalesDash Player is a small device that you connect to a TV via HDMI. It boots automatically into a SalesDash slideshow, without needing a computer or a logged-in account on the screen. This page helps you set up a new Player.

You'll need: the Player itself, the included power supply and HDMI cable, a TV with an HDMI input, and a phone to configure the Wi-Fi network.

Connecting to your TV

1. Mount the Player behind or next to your TV.
2. Connect the HDMI cable to the TV and to the left Micro HDMI port on the Player — it's right next to the USB-C port.
3. Connect the power supply to the Player. It boots automatically as soon as it has power.
4. Use the remote or buttons on your TV to select the correct HDMI source.

After about 20 seconds, the TV shows a waiting screen with two QR codes and the text SalesDash — Connecting….

Connecting to your Wi-Fi

1. Connect your phone to the Wi-Fi network SalesDash-Player-XXXX. The serial number is printed on the Player and shown on the TV screen.

   Tip: use your phone's camera to scan the first QR code on the TV screen — your phone will then connect to the right network automatically.

2. Your phone opens a setup page automatically. If it doesn't, scan the second QR code on the TV screen.

3. Pick your own Wi-Fi network from the list and enter the password.

4. Within a minute the Player connects to your Wi-Fi. If it didn't work, an error appears and the QR codes return to the screen. You can then try again.

Showing a slideshow

Once the Player is connected, the TV shows a pairing code.

1. Log in to SalesDash, go to Admin > Gamification > Slideshows, and pick the slideshow you want to use.
2. Scroll down and create a link. Click "Display on TV" on that link and enter the pairing code. The TV confirms the pairing within a few seconds.
