Introduction

The Q-Cal app in Q-Play allows you to display your calendar information directly on your screens. Whether you want to show meeting schedules, events, or updates from your calendar, Q-Cal offers an easy and quick way to share this information. To get started, you will need a unique Q-Play code from your Q-Cal account. This guide will walk you through how to easily set up Q-Cal in Q-Play.

Frequently Asked Questions


Problem: I cannot find my Q-Play code in Q-Cal.
Solution: Make sure to check in the Q-Cal editor under SignageViews.

Problem: I don’t have a Q-Play code, and it says “Upgrade.”
Solution: If it says “Upgrade” instead of providing a Q-Play code, this means you don’t have a Q-Cal license. To access the Q-Play code and use the app, you need a valid license. Contact NordicScreen’s sales department to upgrade your account and obtain the necessary license.
