DAKboard OS devices utilize a unique display URL, giving them the ability to quickly and easily change the screen being shown on your DAKboard display. Display articles are automatically set on all new devices, this article discusses their use and how to deploy them if not in place on your device.
IMPORTANT:
These steps are only to be used once you have completed the initial setup of your Display and should only be done when instructed to do so by a Support Desk engineer or by our AI assistant. If this is the first time you are setting up your display, please use one of the following articles to assist you with setting up your Display:
