INSTALLATION

3.1 OPERATING SOFTWARE (APP)

The operating software for the hymn board is already

pre-installed by us and is started via the APP „RemoteXY“

(we put it on page 1). In this app (RemoteXY) you will nd

the icon with the label „Liedanzeige“ (hymn board), which

enables the actual communication with the song display.

It is a fully-edged tablet that you can of course use in all

available applications.

However, please make sure that the APP installed by us

is retained in any case.

If you accidentally delete the app, we are of course happy

to help. We ask for your understanding that this is outside

the scope of the guarantee.

Please press the button „Liedanzeige“ (hymn board) - the display „Connecting“ will now appear briey - che-

cking the connection to the gateway.

The gateway (radio transmitter) serves as a connection from the tablet to the receiver of the hymn boards

and is also mandatory for starting the operating software.

You are now automatically in the entry mode of page 1.

If this is not the case, check possible causes of the error as described in Appendix B.

1. FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW

1.1. ENTERING INPUTS

A total of 20 memory locations (2 lines each) are available on pages 1 to 4.

The hymn board HYMN-1-APP allows you to use the full cha-

racter set of the tablet including special characters, upper and

lower case. Each line is limited to 5 digits. Only HYMN-1-40 and

1-70 hymn boards cannot distinguish between upper and lower

case due to the smaller letter height. This means that if you use

a HYMN-1-140 APP as the main board for example, you will see

the board there exactly as on the tablet, but at the same time only

capital letters in the choir display.

Tapping on the corresponding eld takes you to the input mode

(on-screen keyboard). For further information on using the key-

board, please refer to the tablet‘s original operating instructions.

two lines.

Please be sure to press the SAVE button (top right) after entering the song number.

In order for you to see the entry(s) on the LED board, you must set the desired line to ACTIVE.

To do this, press song number “1”.

1.2 RECORDING IN MEMORY 1 TO 4

The procedure for recording memories is the same as for individual recording (1.1).

Up to 20 displays are available in the 4 memories.

You can also make the recordings in the parish ofce or at home, but please note that you must take the radio

transmitter with you in any case. This prepares your entries for output on the hymn board and must be in

operation when recording. Otherwise the APP would give you the error message „disconnected“ and not

forward you to the input elds.

1.3 RETRIEVING SAVED SUBMISSIONS

After recording and SAVING all entries and, if necessary, selecting the color with „F“, you can now send all

data to the displays during the service with just one keystroke. Press „1“ (the red control button lights up);

the rst song number appears on the hymn board. To call up the „2“ and more, you only have to press the

„Next“ button. The red control button now automatically jumps to “2”, etc.

1.4 SCROLLING THE SAVED INDICATIONS ( PAGE 4)

A very practical option to give the parish the opportunity to BEFORE the service prepare hymn books.

2. ADJUSTMENT OF DISPLAY COLOR / MENU F

You have the option of designing EVERY display line separately in countless RGB colors.

To do this, go to the „COLOR“ menu - as shown in the function overview.

You can choose different colors for the song number and verse.

The song numbers/verses are displayed continuously in the order

entered. The software checks your entries and only outputs occupi-

ed elds. For example, if you have stored data for No. 1 to No. 7, the

run at No. 7 automatically jumps back to No. 1.

It will show No.1 (for 2 seconds) and then song number/verse (for 20

seconds) No. 2 song number/verse etc. The duration of the display is

set like this as standard. An adaptation to your wishes can be made

by us. If, for example, no text was entered in line song 5, i.e. the eld

is empty, the run will always only be displayed from 1 to 4, and then

it will start again from the beginning. It is therefore essential to

avoid empty memory locations between the recorded song numbers.

As soon as the service begins, it is essential to set the throughput to OFF so that only the current song num-

ber/verse can be released for display by the organist, for example.
