Details about GDS-4W™ Content Manager
The GDS-4W™ Content Manager is the heart of the system and the centralized application for device and content management. The user interface is HTML5 based and viewable on systems running Windows®, Mac®, or Linux® operating systems as well as browsers on both iOS® and Android® mobile devices. All content is organized, managed, and published within the user interface. Users can manage and view all 4WPLAYER’s on the network.
Once content is developed within the GDS-4W™ Content Manager application, it is routed via the network to each 4WPLAYER. The content is stored locally within each player and broadcast onto the connected video display(s) via HDMI connection(s).
Users can upload any supported media as well as build and preview their content in real time. Factory-provided templates for social media, news, data, and calendar feeds are available and can be modified. Users can schedule programs based on controller’s location and tags. Administrators can assign view, role, and alert profiles to multiple users.
Details about GDS-4W™ Server Options
GDS-4W™ Server can be either cloud or on-premise based depending on installation requirements. The cloud-based option allows content to be made available to users on demand via the Internet from the GDS-4W™ cloud server gateway.
The on-premise option requires the application to be loaded onto a local server and does not require an Internet connection for facilities with enhanced LAN security. The local server used can be virtualized.
Option 1
GDS-4W™ Content Manager and media assets on cloud hosted server
Option 2
GDS-4W™ Content Manager and media assets hosted via on-site server
Details about 4WPLAYERS

Each 4WPLAYER connects to the network via an integrated RJ-45 Ethernet port or optional Wi-Fi connection.
Each 4WPLAYER1 includes the GDS-4W™ Player Software Application that runs as a background service in the CDC's operating system with setup easily done within the GDS-4W™ Content Manager.
The 4WPLAYER receives content from the server, stores it locally on its internal hard drive, and automatically displays the generated media to the connected video displays.
