Standalone Template Editor for DisplayLink+

Colorado Time Systems (CTS) is delighted to release an add-on feature for the DisplayLink+ (DL+) software, the Standalone Template Editor. DL+ is a dynamic software interface program designed for CTS LED video displays and provides robust integration of scoring, timing, graphics, and animation to the display.

The Standalone Template Editor for DisplayLink+ will allow customers to create templates on any Windows computer (without DL+ installed) and then transfer them back to the primary facility DL+ computer for meets. Before the Standalone Template Editor, all templates had to be created from the primary facility DL+ computer which typically remains in the office of that facility. Now, customers can create templates wherever and whenever they please.

Templates are the DL+ files that tell the display where to place the timing, scoring, and meet management information. Customers can have an unlimited number of templates for every sport and can easily create or change a template including positioning of data fields, font variables (color, size, style), and set the background image.

“Our customers requested this new feature, and we are excited to provide this option,” said Rick Connell, CTS Vice President, and General Manager. “The Standalone Template Editor for DisplayLink+ will bring convenience to facility managers, coaches, or anyone on staff who creates templates for a CTS video display.”

The Standalone Template Editor for DisplayLink+ is available for download on our online store. Have you had a video display installed at your facility within the last two years?  Click here to submit a form to see if you qualify for a free license of the Standalone Template Editor.
