In-Location Recovery (ILR) enables to use low-level display control to recover SoC displays from unexpected state. It's especially useful for locations with higher density of displays and business critical deployments where displays uptime is of utmost importance.
In-Location Recovery works as redundant displays manager that can be used to prevent unneccessary truck rolls.
How to deploy
ILR setup
- Install signageOS Core App for Ubuntu Linux on a PC/VM of your choice
- Locate the PC/VM physically in the same network as your SoC displays
- Ensure displays and PC can communicate over the local network
- [Tizen] Ensure displays have Network Standby option set to On
signageOS setup
- Provision signageOS Core App for Linux
- Assign it to a Location with the rest of SoC displays
- You will see Recover devices button on the Location detail page

Once you run into an issue with the SoC display (it's powered off, switched on wrong input source or otherwise unavailable), follow these steps:
Box
- In Box, navigate to Location with malfunctioning displays
- Click Recover devices button
- See list of devices available for recovery
- Click Recover for a given device
- Check for confirmation of the action (can take up to 90 seconds)
