Installing the app
Installing Infoplay mobile app on ELO device:
  1. Go to the app center

    Use a USB mouse to control the screen if touch is difficult to reach.

    Note

    Currently, it is not possible to remotely control the ELO screen. Only file transfer is possible with Teamviewer Host.

  2. In the web browser, enter the remote configuration URL. You will be redirected to the Infoplay remote configuration screen.

    Important to know:

    • The remote configuration URL is accessible only in the local network.

    • When connected to the LAN network, go to the Ethernet settings in the device and use that IP address for the remote configuration. This is because by default the server IP is shown, which will not work when a LAN connection is used.

  3. Enter the Settings PIN to log into the remote configuration portal.
