Concepts
News items in kiosk mode show in three places: before the login screen, cycling through all valid items, and after each user logs in. To set up these new items, from the main VSys screen, select the Touchscreen/kiosk panel and then the News option.
There are two types of news objects: news items, which are text-based and can have embedded images, and news images, which are nothing but pictures.
