Emergency broadcast
Stopping normal playback instantly and showing an urgent message on all screens or on chosen screens.
An emergency broadcast interrupts the normal content flow and puts a priority message on the screens. A fire evacuation, a building closure, a severe weather warning or a system failure are typical examples. At moments like these there is no time to change content screen by screen; the message has to reach every screen straight away.
A good emergency flow is prepared in advance. The message design, the screens it appears on and the people allowed to put it on air are decided at a calm moment.
The emergency program in MIA
In MIA you prepare an emergency program that is separate from your normal programs. When you switch it on, it replaces normal playback instantly on all screens or on the screens you choose; emergency changes never wait for the deployment queue. Switch it off and the screens return to normal playback. An automatic link with systems such as fire alarms can be built for your installation. For use cases, see the factories and manufacturing page.
