When enabled this feature will restrict any access to a resource, kiosk or map data unless the device MAC address has been registered or an authorised user is signed in.

Enabling Screen Security

To enable screen security, navigate to the Screen Security tab which can be found on the System Settings page, under the Administration Settings menu.

Open

From here you can enable security for Room Screen, Kiosk and Maps.

Assigning a MAC Address

Unregistered Devices List

If you already have devices connected to ResourceXpress there is a quick way to automatically add all the MAC addresses to the correct profiles, to do this you will need to go to the Unregistered Devices page which can be found under Reporting Module in the menu.

Open

From this view, you will see a list of all the devices that have tried to connect to a ResourceXpress profile, this list can be reduced using the filter options.

From here you can choose Auto Link to assign each MAC address to the associated profile, which can be seen under the column Resource Name. Alternatively, you can individually auto-assign a MAC address and profile using the LINK icon in this column.

If the suggested profile is incorrect you are able to choose which profile the MAC address will be assigned by selecting the icon in the Register column.

This option will provide a list of all profiles which can be filtered to show profiles which currently have a registered MAC address or profiles which do not currently have a registered MAC address.

Assign & Manage MAC Addresses by Profile

For Room Screen

Select Edit Profile for the applicable profile in the Resource List view, there is a Room Screen Security tab which will allow you to enter a MAC address for this profile.

From this view, you can also remove MAC addresses by clicking the DELETE icon alongside each MAC address.

For Kiosk

Select Edit Profile for a Kiosk profile, at the bottom of the page there is an option to add MAC addresses.

Similar to the Resource Profile, this is where MAC addresses can be unassigned also.

For Maps

MAC addresses for Maps are not assigned to a specific Map profile, they are instead globally applied to all Map profiles, this is because navigation between Map profiles is required.

From the Map Profiles List page, select Device Security found on the top right above the list.
