Functionality
- All-round control plans
− Enables users to publish content and control screens from a computer, mobile phone, or tablet
− Allows users to publish content and control
screens from anywhere, anytime.
− Allows users to monitor screens from
anywhere, anytime.
- Switching between Wi-Fi AP and Wi-Fi STA
− In Wi-Fi AP mode, the user terminal connects to the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot of the TB60. The default SSID is “AP+Last 8 digits of SN” and the default password is “12345678”.
− In Wi-Fi STA mode, the user terminal and
the TB60 are connected to the Wi-Fi hotspot of a router.
- Synchronous and asynchronous modes
− In asynchronous mode, the internal video source works.
− In Wi-Fi STA mode, the user terminal and
the TB60 are connected to the Wi-Fi hotspot of a router. - In synchronous mode, the video source
input from the HDMI connector works.
- Synchronous playback across multiple screens
NTP time synchronization
− GPS time synchronization (The specified
4G module must be installed.)
− RF time synchronization (The specified RF
module must be installed.)
- Support for 4G modules
The TB60 ships without a 4G module. Users
have to purchase 4G modules separately if
needed.
Network connection priority: Wired network > WiFi network > 4G network
When multiple types of networks are available,
the TB60 will choose a signal automatically
according to the priority.
