Manage display settings
Displaying content in portrait mode with Amazon Signage Stick involves a two-step process:
1. Content Preparation:
a. Convert the content orientation from portrait to landscape using your Content Management System (CMS).
b. This step is necessary because Amazon Signage Stick's display output is always in landscape format.
2. Physical Display Adjustment:
a. After preparing the content, physically rotate your monitor 90 degrees to achieve portrait orientation.
Important notes:
- Regular monitors, unlike smartphones, don't have sensors to detect orientation changes automatically.
- Signage's display output (frame buffer) is always in landscape mode, regardless of the monitor's physical orientation.
- Ensure your monitor supports rotation or has a stand that allows for portrait positioning.
Removing the Signage Stick from the Signage Manager Portal
1. From the dashboard, select the "Trash“ icon.
2. In the pop-up, select "Confirm" to delete the Stick from your account. This will only remove the Stick from your Signage Manager Portal and will not change any settings on the Stick itself.
Do not remove a Stick from the Signage Manager Portal before resetting it.
