Hardware
Window vs. In-store Screens
Pharmacy Display currently offers two different types of screens to customers:

In-store screens
When your screens are installed, they are connected to the Media Player and the internet which ensures there is always a constant stream of content on the screens. The window screen also comes with:
Remote control
A remote control accompanies a Pharmacy Display window screen to help during the display set-up. Keep it in a safe place, should it be required for future configuration changes.
Light sensor
