3.1 Starting a Coalesce Display
To start using your Coalesce display, first ensure the display is powered on and that the Coalesce is connected to the display via a
Share Video cable. Next, check that the Coalesce input is selected on the display. Lastly, ensure your Coalesce is plugged in and
Coalesce is running. At this point, you will see the Coalesce splash screen on the display with instructions to get started.
3.2 Getting Started with the Coalesce Display Splash Screen
Figure 3-1. Coalesce Display Splash Screen.
Upon system launch, Coalesce has a built-in splash screen that informs users how to get the Coalesce client software app onto
their devices and connect to the display. The splash screen also provides access to the Coalesce Display Menu, which contains
access to system access security and configuration options. Black Box recommends reviewing and setting the Coalesce Display
Menu options before using the Coalesce display.
When enabled via the Coalesce Central, bulletin messages will show/scroll across the top banner between the “Coalesce wireless
display” title on the left and the SSID on the right (when SSID is enabled). Once any content is shared to the Coalesce display, the
bulletin messaging will disappear.
