Screenshots

Screenshots! On every MyTurtle, we automatically take screenshots for debugging purpose every 5 minutes. We’ve now made these screenshots available to MyTurtle users. This will help you identify any problems with your MyTurtle, and will give you a clear visualisation on the display. For now we display the 25 last screenshots, but we’re planning on increasing this number. You can access the screenshots via the “screenshots” button.

MyTurtleControl changes

As posted earlier, we’ve changed the layout of MyTurtleControl drastically. In the post, I’ve embedded a a screenshot of what the settings page looks like, from the point of view of a superadmin. Normal users won’t have the option to modify the pin or TurtleBox. We are eager to get feedback on this new layout. Please feel free to get in touch and drop us a line. Thanks, Yeri.

The Info Turtle

We’re launching one new, free, Turtle: the Info Turtle. This Turtle gives you the option to add any text via a WYSIWYG-editor. Add phone numbers, helpdesk information, general updates, etc via this pane. You can find this pane on the “right” side of MyTurtle. BTW: You can use this together with the “Footer: message” option.

MyTurtleControl: buttons, pt 2

In the updates that have been pushed, we’ve further optimised the buttons in MyTurtleControl… As to make it clearer. The front page has also had a general make-over. Some options have moved down to “Settings”, and screenshots have been added to give you a visual, even if you’re not around the display.

Mondays… When rolling is just more convenient.

Signage has been implemented

Signage, part one, has been implemented a couple of weeks ago, and after an initial test with Banimmo, we are releasing this feature to everyone. Signage gives you the ability to display what company is located at what floor. Very convenient if a company just moved in and you haven’t had time to change the totems yet. Soon, we will add the option to upload logos as well.

MyTurtle revisions, Star Wars style.

We're proud to announce `Via`.

We’re proud to announce “Via”. A feature requested by IVG. It is now possible to display the (estimated) time of arrival at the Via-stations for trains leaving from your selected stations. For example: I selected Antwerp Central as station on MyTurtle, and selected Vilvoorde as Via. It will now show the trains leaving from Antwerp Central and stopping in Vilvoorde, and the time of arrival in that station. This is very useful for locations that are further away from main stations.

IPv6

The last week we’ve been quite busy adding ipv6 support to our entire IT infrastructure. As you might, or might not know, the internet is running out of ip (v4) addresses. This is why the last few years, there has been a big push to migrate the internet to ipv6. But due to old hardware and legacy system, this has proven much harder than expected. Most big companies (think Google, Microsoft, Facebook) have taken the lead in this and migrated everything to both ipv4 and ipv6.
