Door Tablet V7.1

We are pleased to announce the release of Door Tablet V7.1

New Server Protocol

From this version the Door Tablet server may be configured to read text files containing room schedules instead of the more sophisticated scheduling platforms we already support.  So when you have a non-standard system which can generate scheduling reports, you can now get these to work with Door Tablet.  In this mode, the system is automatically in "read-only" mode.  Please remember that if you like to integrate proprietary systems with Door Tablet you can also use Door Tablet Standard Interface (DTSI) and the Door Tablet API.  If you have any integration requirements not covered by Door Tablet we can help.

See the architecture here.

New Client Monitoring

The Door Tablet server will now keep a watchful eye on your displays to ensure they are operational and ON-LINE, when they are supposed to be.  The new monitoring system allows you to know before anybody else that a display is OFF-LINE.  You will no longer need to rely on users or passers-by telling you something is wrong with a display - a message will be in your mail box waiting your action, long before anyone notices.

Other changes

It is now possible to interact with the displays without the need to use Check-in codes.  If you specify this behaviour in the room/resource record, the Door Tablet client will not offer nor will it demand a check-in code.

We have also fixed various minor bugs as we continue to strive towards defect free software.

New Service

In the past few months we have been providing a new service for clients who purchased the "All-in packages".  With this service we are offering a complete turnkey solution where the deliverables are ready to hang on your wall.  Upon receipt of the components we will enable the tablets, prepare the enclosures with all the pads and stickers, install a screen protector, update the OS, install application software and check connectivity.  And all this for a low, fixed flat, fee per unit.  You will find details and costs for your currency on the on-line quotation tool.

Windows Store App

We continue and maintain the client for Microsoft Windows on the Windows Store.  However, Microsoft has yet to resolve the Windows Store 10 issue which prevents the installation of the software.  According to Microsoft they are "on the case".  This applies to Windows 10 desktops and Tablets but not Windows 8.1 devices.
