How do you activate kiosk mode on the TSx G4?

From Central 7.1 firmware 1.0.329 onwards, it is possible to set the TSx G4 for use in kiosk mode via Screen Control. In kiosk mode, the Android settings are blocked and only pre-set apps can be used. In kiosk mode, it is still possible to switch between the different input channels.

Before the TSx G4 can be managed in Screen Control, the Google Play store must be activated within the Screen Control environment. To do this, you can send an email to service@prowise.com; please mention the name of the Screen Control environment in your request.
