Ticket Dispenser

Overview

The Ticket Dispenser is a piece of hardware in the Moviik ecosystem that displays available services and issues tickets for the services of a branch.

It is the first point of contact between the customer and the queue management system.


LOGIC

From the Logic tab users can set up and configure the Ticket Dispenser basic settings, view and copy the Connection Key and choosing available device services. Users can also set a home page timeout (in seconds), choose ticket buttons layout, and modify the printed ticket layout.

Ticket Dispenser Basics

Enter a name and description for the Ticket Dispenser.

If you need to set up multiple ticket dispensers, use naming conventions to make these devices easily identifiable by BackOffice users.


Connection Key

The Connection Key is a system generated value and cannot be modified, only copied and used for setting up the device.


Device Services

Select the checkbox to Activate All Services, alternatively, you can select the relevant services that are available to display on the Ticket Dispenser.

Home Page Timeout

Here is where branch administrators can define the amount of time (in seconds) to reset their screen automatically for Ticket Dispensers left unattended.

Widget Player

Overview

The Widget Player is a completely customizable device that changes the way queues are displayed. It is more powerful, offers more flexibility, and allows for much finer tuning compared to the Player device. The Widget Player configuration interface varies greatly from other devices in Moviik's Queue Management System.

The system ships with one pre-configured screen and three different pre-configured profiles by default. You begin configuring the device by adding screens, defining the orientation of the canvas (physical screen where the application is displayed), adding widgets to the screens and customizing them to fit your needs.




Device

Add and customize screens for the Widget Player. The screens can be different customizations of the same screen with the same purpose, or different screens for different purposes.

For multiple screens in the Device section, you need to set the initial screen correctly according to your needs.

After adding a screen by clicking the plus symbol (+ Add Screen) in the left pane, click on the More Options menu (3 dots) clicking the set as initial screen option in the menu that is shown.


In the device section, located in the right pane, you can locate the Screen flow tool, which helps you create conditions to customize which screen the Widget Player displays. Presently it is possible to create conditions for the status of Crowd Light or Disabled Services.

Example: If Crowd Light is red, you can set a screen to display to your customers, indicating full occupancy. Alternatively, if any services are disabled, you can have that information shown to your customers.


Canvas

Customize the aspect ratio and the orientation of the target screen. If the content is to be displayed on a vertically mounted display, choose portrait mode. Alternatively, use landscape mode if the display is horizontally mounted.




Add Screen

By default, Widget Player ships with one screen, using this option allows you to add more screens to the widget player.
The additional screens added can be edited by clicking on the screen you need to edit, or using the More Options menu (like the screen card under the Device section).



Editing a Screen

When adding a new screen, you need to give it a name, which you can edit later if needed. The newly added screen will be completely blank. To help you kickstart the configuration process, we offer Profiles, which can be utilzed to have a working, usable widget player with a few clicks.

The first configurable options are the Name, Background Image and its Fit Mode, the Background Color, and the sound played under Sound on Ticket Call.

To show valuable information on the widget player, we have included ten widgets.

 

Currently, we offer the following widgets: 

  • Tickets grid
  • Text
  • People counting
  • Qr code
  • Last called ticket
  • Image
  • Date time
  • Playlist
  • Tickets list
  • Form

In the following sections, we will introduce each of these widgets and thoroughly explain each customization option available.




Tickets Grid

This widget shows all last called tickets for all services by default.

APPEARANCE


In the APPEARANCE tab of the Tickets Grid widget (right sidebar), you control all visual aspects of the widget; Choose a Font Family from the drop-down menu, a Font Weight, and a Font Color.

You can control the number of tickets shown by modifying the Rows and Columns of the widget.

You can set the Vertical and Horizontal Margins (percentage values), and the Background and Border Color for the widget.
Example: For a branch with five services, two of which have Regular and Priority tickets, you will need a grid of 5 rows and 2 columns to be able to display at least one of each service ticket (and respective ticket type – regular and priority).


LOGIC



In the LOGIC tab, you select which service tickets are shown in the widget, by checking/unchecking the services in the Services drop-down. Next, you can toggle show last called ticket on or off.

This will only display the last called ticket in the grid, instead of a list of last called tickets. 

In the data type section, you can configure what appears in each of the grid cells. Currently, you can customize the output showing the ticket (using the {{ ticket }} tag) and associated name (using the {{ name }} tag). 

To display the name, this needs to be previously set in the concierge application, for example.
