1. Esign Touch

2. REQUIREMENTS eSign Server in version 9 or later DHCP recommended
Network connection between eSignTouch and eSign Server
At least port or as configured on the Server
NTP server recommended (local or internet)

3. eSign Server Configuration I
(Not necessary if you are using easescreen demo equipment)
Enable Touch-UI support
“Administration” → “Settings” → “TouchUI” Tab
Create (all required) resources at the eSign Server
“Administration”→ “Resources” → “New Resource”
At the “Details” tab: In order to profit from all eSignTouch benefits: do enable “Confirmation of events required“
For further configuration note down the “Internal ID”

4. eSign Server Configuration II
(Not necessary if you are using easescreen demo equipment)
To display multiple rooms on an eSignTouch you have to generate a board:
“Administration” → “Boards” → “Add New Board”
Configure the Board as needed. Enter all resources that should be available at direct booking.
Important: at “Sort Events by” select “Resource, also include unoccupied Resources”
Recommended: at “Show events” select “only from Begin-Time to End-Time”
Find the Internal ID of the board
Go to “Preview” and show a preview of your new Board
See the Internal ID at the URL of your preview e.g. .../board.html?BOARD=4&STYLE=0….

5. Basic eSignTouch Configuration
Attach mouse and keyboard or connect via VNC to the eSignTouch
The VNC password is FELDTECH
Exit the eSignTouch application by pressing the keyboard key Q
Open the “eSign Touch Settings” textfile
Replace the preconfigured eSignServerUrl with the URL of your eSign Server
Save and close your settings file
Start the eSign Touch application from the desktop shortcut
If all settings are right you will see the grey unconfigured screen

6. Connecting eSignTouch and Resource
Open easescreen_esign.ini at the server (C:\esign\)
Scroll down to the [EmbeddedDoorSigns] section
You will find the Doorsign ID of the previously attached doorsign (e.g. rju4-mmCq-BaFM)
Now do assign the desired design (C:\esign\Files\DesignXMl) as well as the ID of the board and the ID of the resource to your eSignTouch
DoorsignID=DesignXML.xml|RessourceID|ShowBeforeTimeInMinutes|ShowAfterTimeInMinutes|BoardID
rju4-mmCq-BaFM=esigntouch10.xml|12|300|#|8
After the file is saved, your eSignTouch should be ready to use

7. Design your eSignTouch
eSign Touch uses a customizable XML Design file for all functions and design properties
Some design template can be found at your eSign server installation in \esign\Files\DesignXML\ Folder
To modify designs we recommend notepad++ as editor.
Changing the background could be done by replacing its path in the esigntouch10.xml
All paths are starting at the root directory of the webserver.
All pictures should be stored in \esign\files.
To reload your design at the doorsign, change the XML name in
the easescreen_esign.ini (e.g. lower-case to upper-case)
After the file is saved, your eSignTouch should receive the
new design.

8. IP configuration on eSignTouch
Connect a keyboard and a mouse
Exit the eSignTouch application (press Q)
Open “Network Connections” and edit the last used wired connection
At “IPv4 Settings”
Click “Add” and edit the address
