Add and pair a display

Enter the 6-digit pairing code from the screen in the dashboard, then set the display’s name and location.

Pairing connects a display to your account. You need the 6-digit code that the player app shows on the screen, and the display’s location. If your player is not running yet, read “Set up the player (plug & play)” first.

How to pair a display

  1. 1Start the player. As long as the display is not paired, the screen shows the 6-digit code and a QR code.
  2. 2In the dashboard, open “Displays” and choose “Add new display”.
  3. 3Type the code under “Enter pairing code” and click “Connect display”. Alternatively, scan the QR code with your phone: the page then opens with the code already filled in.
  4. 4Under “Display details”, give the display a name, for example “Shop window left”.
  5. 5Enter the location in “Address or postcode” and click “Search”. If the search finds nothing, click directly on the map. You can drag the marker afterwards.
  6. 6Click “Save & finish”. The message “Display connected!” confirms the pairing, and “Go to display” opens the detail page.

If it does not work

  • “Device not found. Check pairing code.”: the code does not match any device. Compare it with the screen again.
  • “Device is already linked to another account”: the device is already assigned to an account and has to be removed there first.
  • Second display: if your free display is in use, the dashboard may ask for a payment method before pairing. Each additional display costs €3.90 per month plus VAT, pro-rated from today and cancellable monthly. Your code is remembered and pairing then continues automatically.
  • In a team, only the owner can add new displays, because they are billed to the owner.

What comes next

A paired display only plays content once it has a schedule or a fallback playlist assigned. “Play your first content” shows you how to get there.

The position is mandatory, even though the field is labelled “Position on the map (optional)”: without a location and a name, “Save & finish” stays inactive. Check both carefully, because the display’s detail page currently has no input field for them. To change them later, write to info@oohlemon.com.
