− Allows users to monitor screens from anywhere, anytime.
⬤Switching between Wi-Fi AP and Wi-Fi STA
− In Wi-Fi AP mode, the user terminal connects to the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot of the TB50. The default SSID is “AP+Last 8 digits of SN” and the default password is “12345678”.
− In Wi-Fi STA mode, the user terminal and the TB50 are connected to the Wi-Fi hotspot of a router.
⬤Synchronous and asynchronous modes
− In asynchronous mode, the internal video source works.
− In synchronous mode, the video source input from the HDMI connector works.
⬤Synchronous playback across multiple screens
− NTP time synchronization
− GPS time synchronization (The specified 4G module must be installed.)
− RF time synchronization (The specified RF module must be installed.)
⬤Support for 4G modules
The TB50 ships without a 4G module. Users have to purchase 4G modules separately if needed.
Network connection priority: Wired network > Wi- Fi network > 4G network
When multiple types of networks are available, the TB50 will choose a signal automatically according to the priority.

LED Display Life Span And 6 Common Maintenance Methods
LED display is a new type of display equipment, it has many advantages compared with the traditional display means, such as long service life, high brightness, fast response, visual distance, strong adaptability to the environment and so on. The humanized design makes the LED display easy to install and maintain, can be used anytime and anywhere flexibly, suitable for many installation conditions, the scene is realized and image, or energy saving and emission reduction, a kind of green environmental protection items. So, how long is the service life of the general LED display?
The use of LED display can be divided into indoor and outdoor. Take the LED display produced by Yipinglian as an example, whether indoor or outdoor, the service life of the LED module panel is more than 100,000 hours. Because the backlight is usually LED light, the life of the backlight is similar to that of the LED screen. Even if it is used 24 hours a day, the equivalent life theory is more than 10 years, with a half-life of 50,000 hours, of course, these are theoretical values! How long it actually lasts also depends on the environment and maintenance of the product. Good maintenance and maintenance means is the fundamental life system of LED display, therefore, consumers to buy LED display must have quality and service as the premise.
