# Tablet App Settings

## Manage Your Tablets

### Where to find Devices

In the web app, open the main side menu and click **Devices**.

### Devices list

The **Devices** page shows your currently paired tablets.

From this list, you can:

* View all paired devices
* Click a device to open its **Device Details**
* Open **Device Settings** (org-wide defaults and codes)

### Device Details (per-device settings)

Click a device in the list to open its details page. Here you can update:

#### Basic device info

* **Device Name**

#### Visibility and display controls

* **Show Date & Time**
* **Show Weather**
* **Show Logo**
* **Show Location Name**
* **Show Connection Status**
* **Show Calendar**
* **Show Slideshow**

#### Device actions

* **Unpair device remotely**

## Pairing Defaults, Codes, Display Defaults

### Where to find Device Settings

On the **Devices** list page, click **Device Settings**.

This page controls org-wide settings like pairing defaults, display defaults, and access codes.

### Display Defaults

These are the default visibility settings applied when new tablets are paired (and may be used as your standard baseline).

Options include:

* **Show Date & Time**
* **Show Weather**
* **Show Logo**
* **Show Location Name**
* **Show Connection Status**

> Tip: Use defaults to ensure every new tablet looks consistent right away, then fine-tune per device in Device Details.

### Linking code (pairing code)

This is the code you enter in the PushPulse Tablet App to link a device to your account.

**Where it’s used:**

* In the **PushPulse Tablet App** during setup
* Also visible in PushPulse (mobile app) under Profile (bottom)

### Staff access code (4-digit)

Use this code to open the staff view / staff actions on a tablet display (including the shield menu).

* Can be **changed** in Device Settings
* Works when the shield icon prompts for a PIN

### Admin access code (4-digit)

Use this code to open the admin view / admin actions on a tablet display.

* Can be **changed** in Device Settings
* Also works when the shield icon prompts for a PIN

**Recommended best practice**

* Change codes if they’ve been widely shared.
* Use staff code for broader access and keep admin code limited.

## Slideshows on Tablets

### What are slideshows?

Slideshows let you display rotating content on paired tablets (announcements, reminders, procedures, schedules, etc.).

Admins can:

* Create slideshows
* Sort and order slides
* Assign slideshows to show on tablets (typically via device configuration)

### Enable slideshow on a tablet

1. In the web app, go to **Devices**.
2. Click a device to open **Device Details**.
3. Toggle **Show Slideshow** on.

### Create and order slideshow content

From the slideshow creation area (within Device settings):

* Add slides
* Reorder slides 
* Save changes
