Administration - Branch - Optional Modules

If you are within the selected branch you will see that the left hand side menu bar changes items. This is happening because the central settings and the branch level settings differ. Branch level setup has also some optional modules.

Media players

Q-net Pro Media players (SH26, SH46, or DM22) are optional software modules that can handle video advertisements and waiting area display services at the same time. This module is usually used when the client doesn’t want to have separate waiting area displays or display groups and wants to make advertisement in a central area where a lot of waiting customers can see them while waiting for their ticket number to be called. On the other hand end users can show moving text, RSS feeds, TV programs, websites, slide shows, further video content, etc. besides waiting area display information.

Before installing the media player application itself, it is important to install the newest device controller on the media player pc. In case you have purchased the SH26 media player application there is going to be a separate “qnet6-sh26-setup-x86-v6.0.X.exe” or “qnet6-sh26-setup-v6.0.X.exe” installer available. This installer needs to be installed onto the PC that is going to be connected to the media display. During the installation it will request to give the Q-Net V6 server parameters like the host IP or hostname and the unique identifier for the media player.

As seen in section 2.5.1. Booking code accepted before appointment time (min) is when the customer arrives to the selected branch with the booking code – selects the appointment button (as s/he arrived to a booked time) – and gives the code which s/he received. This code is accepted before the appointments time within that timeframe which you set up with the help of this option and the Booking code accepted after appointment time (min). This last option is for customers who may be late from the appointment. Client missed the appointment is a time value which after the system won’t accept the booking code for the selected appointment but within the value the booking code is accepted but the priority level will remain on the level of the walk-in customers. It is important to Increase appointment ticket priority to honor the appointed customers and if this value is big enough it will enable to call the customer with appointment earlier than any other customer.
