What is Rise Vision Stock Ticker and Digital Signage in the HCoB Investment Center?

Tags RiseVision

Answer

Rise Vision is the Cloud Based Digital Signage Solution used in the Heider College of Business Investment Center, located in Harper 2066.  There are three digital signs in the Investment Center - they are the "stock ticker" located in the ceiling alcove, and two digital signage displays known as "Rise Vision Left" and "Rise Vision Right" on the rear wall of the room.  The stock ticker can be updated by several HCoB and IT staff, while the digital signage displays must be programmed by Rise Vision.  All content is displayed over the Internet from Rise Vision and an annual fee is paid to Rise by the Heider College of Business.  The two digital signage displays are driven by Rise Vision appliances located in the data closet 2043 in the Harper building.  They are clearly labeled on shelves in the data closet. 

Rise Vision is the leader in digital signage solutions for financial data.  This is the reason that this vendor is used only in the HCoB Investment Center and why the University standard vendor is not used.    

Rise Vision Stock Ticker
The stock ticker display can be logged into by several IT and HCoB staff members.  The login is not connected to the Creighton Active Directory, rather it is tied to Rise Vision.  Rise requires the use of a Google account to log in.   The URL to log in to update the ticker is https://ticker.risedisplay.com/ and select Creighton University Ticker 101692-0626.  If you are going to add a message, please do NOT delete an existing message, rather have it expire and create your own message.  Adding a series of stocks to a ticker listing is tedious and there are no backup options, so please ask if you are not sure what you doing.

The following people have the ability to update the stock ticker as needed:
Terry Begley - Senior Client Support Specialist, myIT Support and the primary vendor contact
Don Hoffman - Manager, Information Technology
Anthony Hendrickson - Dean, Heider College of Business
Angie Wayman - Administrative Assistant, Heider College of Business

Rise Vision Appliances
These appliances run the Rise Vision Left and Rise Vision Right displays in the Investment Center.  The Rise Vision appliances are located in the data closet in Harper 2043.  The devices are running a customized version of Windows and they receive updates from Rise Vision.  Occasionally a reboot or power-cycle is necessary if the display does not reboot properly after an update.  The data is received through the Internet from Rise Vision, and no specific firewall rules are necessary for the devices to receive data from Rise.
