How to Name Your Displays Descriptively

Include the location and audience type in the display name to make it easy to identify what is shown and to whom β€” whether the content is for employees (internal) or visitors (external).

A good display name answers two questions: Where is this display? and Who is it for?

Examples:

  • Acme Corp US Peoria Cafeteria 3rd Floor

  • Wonka Ind MX Monterrey Lobby (External)

  • UK London 3rd Fl Cafeteria [Acme.22.03]

About display ID tags

If your display has an ID tag, keep it in the name even after moving or renaming the display β€” it's the fastest way to identify a specific device when troubleshooting.

Example: [Acme.26.03]

If your displays have ID tags, do not remove or change them when relocating a display. These IDs help identify devices quickly when troubleshooting.
