Digital Signage ve AerOS Linux Controller: screen and Linux device management
AerOS Digital Signage is corporate TV software that displays images, video, live streams, news, weather and exchange rates in scheduled flows on one or more screens and manages screens remotely. AerOS Controller is remote device management software that manages, updates and monitors Linux-based PCs, mini PCs and Raspberry devices in bulk from a central panel.
Overview
Content modules are combined into scenes; playback flows and screen operating rules are configured in a central management panel. AerOS Controller was built so system administrators and IT teams can manage Linux devices from one panel. It applies security patches, software updates and configuration changes remotely and automatically, and performs tasks such as installing applications and packages, taking screenshots, rebooting and changing wallpapers over a remote connection. After the management panel is installed, the image prepared by Boran Software is deployed to the devices and setup is complete. AerOS Controller v1.0 was sold for the IGA THY project in 2021.

Management panel and scene design
Drag-and-drop design adjusts backgrounds, borders, shadows, blur and opacity without code. Player shows modules sequentially by seconds, count or rounds. Panel shows modules simultaneously or with a delay and entry/exit animations. Every scene change is stored and earlier designs can be restored. Shared scenes can be nested inside scenes.
Device management
Operating rules support after-hours shutdown and energy saving. Manage remote-control locks, landscape/portrait orientation, USB, input source, sound and picture settings remotely. User permissions and audit trails accompany daily, weekly and monthly playback reports. News, meeting and content operations are supported, with background uploads for large files.
Bulk commands and monitoring
From the bulk command screen, commands go to all devices, to defined groups or to selected devices. Each device's response is listed in its own console view, and every command is logged with who sent it and when. Disk, RAM, CPU and network details of each device are visible in the panel, and screenshots can be taken.
Package, file and network management
APT and APT-GET packages can be listed, downloaded and removed. Image, video, PDF, ZIP, shell, deb and crt files are sent to a chosen directory and opened or executed according to their extension. IP blocking, opening and closing ports, file and directory permissions, NTP and proxy settings are all handled remotely. Applications, videos or URLs can be set to open on every restart; URLs open in Google Chrome kiosk mode, and the VMware Horizon client connection can be configured.
User groups and permissions
The administrator creates user groups and assigns specific devices to them. Group members see and manage only the devices assigned to them, and list, add, edit, delete and log rights are granted separately per module.
