Using Microsoft Excel you can easily create a CSV file that describes a sophisticated interactive sign using a text table. The table describes which media to play, and which media to play when a user presses a button or triggers other events.

To autoplay media described by a .csv file on power-up or reset, do the following:

1.Create your CSV file using Microsoft Excel as described in this manual’s section “Using Excel to Create Interactive Signs”.

2.Copy your media files and your csv file onto the root directory of a CompactFlash card. Name the file “autoplay.csv”.

3.Go to www.rokulabs.com/brightsign and download the “autoplay.zip” file. This contains a script named autorun.bas. Copy autorun.bas into the root directory of your CF card.
