In this article, we are going to show you how to create and configure labels for your Interactive Kiosk

Using the label feature allows you to enhance the display of the icons in your Interactive Kiosk. Labels allow you to easily understand the general content each icon will contain when clicked upon. You have full control on labelling your icons through the settings.

We will give a quick example of how a Kiosk may look like with and without labels.

In the left-hand image below, this is typically what a kiosk would look like without any labels. This is only showing the icons themselves without any extra information about them. The photo on the right-hand side, is what a kiosk would look like if labels were attached. Having the labels help explain what the icon does.

As a default setting, all Interactive Kiosks start off with no labels

How to create your own labels

Steps

1. In the PAM navigation menu, go to 360 Planner > Digital Signs

2. Select SIGN CONFIGURATION tab

3. Select Interactive Kiosk

4. Choose the Menu tab, on the right-hand side pop out

Underneath the ICONS heading, you will see the following settings:

Explore

5. Choose your label name for Explore Icon. The default name is Explore

You are unable to change the Explore Icon colour

Search

6. Adjust Search Icon colour here

7. Choose your label name for Search Icon. The default name is Search

Experiences

8. Adjust Experiences Icon colour here

9. Choose your label name for Experiences Icon. The default name is Experiences

Directory

10. Adjust Directory Icon colour here

11. Choose your label name for Directory Icon. The default name is Directory

12. Enable the toggle to activate Directory Icon

If this toggle is disabled, you will not see the Directory icon appear in the Interactive Kiosk

Promotions

13. Adjust Promotions Icon colour here

14. Choose your label name for Promotions Icon. The default name is Promotions

15. Enable the toggle to activate Promotions Icon

Underneath the LABELS heading, you will see the following:

16. Activate “Show on Kiosk” to turn on the labels and have them appear in the Interactive Kiosk

17. Adjust label colour light map (this means changing the colour of the label name text for light mode)

18. Adjust label colour dark map (this means changing the colour of the label name text dark mode)

19. Activating “Coloured labels” will use the colour of your icons as the background for your labels.
For example if you had set the Promotions Icon colour as green then the label background will be green with your label name for promotions placed on top of it

20. Activating Inline Labels will make your labels be shown on the right-side of the icon instead of being shown at the bottom. Leave this toggle deactivated if you prefer your labels to be shown at the bottom of the icons.

21. Save changes

Viewing the results on Interactive Kiosk

Gain access to your Interactive Kiosk through:

1. In the PAM navigation menu, go to 360 Planner > Digital Signs

2. Select DIGITAL SIGN MAP tab

3. Search for your sign or locate it on the map

4. Click on the sign once located

5. On the right-hand side pop out, click the link underneath Sign ID to open up Interactive Kiosk

In your Interactive Kiosk, you will see the labels appear

6. Switching between light and dark mode on the Kiosk will change the text of the labels depending on your configurations

  • When light mode is turned on, the labels is in blue

    • This is because blue was chosen inside Label colour light map

  • When dark mode is on, the labels is in yellow

    • This is because yellow was chosen inside Label colour dark map

Coloured Labels Example

If coloured labels are activated, this is how your Interactive Kiosk may look like.

For reference, the Search Icon is red so the label of the search icon is using the same red as it’s background.

Also notice that the label text colour is white regardless of light or dark map mode.

Inline Labels Example

If Inline Labels is activated, it would look like this on your Interactive Kiosk. Refer to the photo below.
Notice that the labels are now on the right-hand side of the icons. It will only be visible when you click on the Explore icon.

Inline Labels with Coloured Labels Example

If Inline labels is activated together with coloured labels, it would look something like the example below.
