Heart Beat

The so called „Heart-Beat" should be understood literally - it is the heart beat of a terminal.

The Heart-Beat is digital information, a special signal sent to the composer network services server at predefined intervals (e.g. every 5 minutes), which reports that the terminal operates correctly. The Heart-Beat not only signals that a terminal is "alive", but at the same time transfers all physical data about the computer hardware, e.g. the CPU temperature and functionality of the cooler. Moreover, it checks the composer network services server for new contents or update packages available for the corresponding terminal. All this information can be further collected at any time by the administrator of the terminal or of the terminal network to make sure that all terminals are in good order.

In case a terminal does not respond in a pre-configured time period, a warning message is sent to the composer network services webconsole. Optionally, this message can be also delivered via e-mail to an e-mail address or via SMS directly to the mobile phone of the service person.

This way you as an operator of terminals interfaces can always be sure: your advertising or presentation is on-line when required, and you can react to errors immediately.
