[DMP Name]\[Sign Name]: [VIP Name]. Use this information to ensure that all hardware connections
are properly made and communication settings are properly configured.
4. After corrective steps have been taken, return to the status details box and click the

Troubleshooting Scenario: Single button click adds multiple files to
display queue
Another common scenario you may experience is when you click a quick display button, it adds multiple
instances of the same media file to your display queue.
The most likely cause of this scenario is having multiple network connections enabled on the affected
machine(s) at the same time. If your machine has a wireless network interface card (NIC) in addition to its
Ethernet NIC, it is recommended to disable the wireless card.
