Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting options for BrightSign are limited because the ScreenCloud player’s side menu can’t be accessed, and the player itself supports fewer features than on other devices. As a result, most issues require a factory reset of the BrightSign player.

Limited screen RDM tools

The remote device management (RDM) tools available for BrightSign in the screen settings in Studio are:

  • Reboot Device

  • Clear Cache

  • Screenshot

For more details, see here.

After a factory reset

  1. Perform a factory reset on the BrightSign player, then set up the ScreenCloud player by following the BrightSign Player setup guide.

  2. Once the player is online and set up, it will display a pairing code.

  3. If the screen still exists in your account, pair it using Replace Device to keep the same screen and license.For general performance and stability issues, see Troubleshooting Hardware Performance and Stability.

BrightSign player won’t start or the LED is flashing

If the player doesn’t start and the LED flashes in a particular pattern, see BrightSign’s guide to interpreting flashing LEDs.

Repair or replacement

For hardware repairs or replacements, contact BrightSign directly. See BrightSign’s player repair or replacement page.
