Showing Overlaps
You can easily see whether a zone, group, or location contains the same DMPs by selecting multiple
entries and clicking the Show Overlap checkbox. This is useful to identify and resolve conflicts that
occur when actions are being assigned to DMPs that are in the same location, group, or zone. For
example, in the following screen, there is an overlap between the Boulder_Group and SUITES:

Naming Conventions for Zones and Groups
With thousands of displays and hundreds of zones and groups, naming is especially
important. Choose a logical naming scheme. For example, name similar groups and zones
with the same prefix so that you can to sort them alphabetically in the Control Panel. Also,
assign names to zones and groups that remind you of the area where the display is located
and the screen template or advertising playlist you will be using for that display.

assign names to zones and groups that remind you of the area where the display is located
and the screen template or advertising playlist you will be using for that display.
A good way to keep your zones and groups organized is to use a text organizational structure and
then assign prefixes to form like groups and zones. This makes it easy to find devices in similar
geographical or logical groupings. For example, when naming zones, consider adding the prefix ‘100’
to all clubs on the 100 level. This makes it easy to find and manage these clubs in Cisco
StadiumVision Director as they are sorted alphabetically. Likewise, when naming groups for the 100
level clubs, consider adding a suffix to identify where or what content will be displayed in the group.

For example:
100_Club_A_zone
100_Club_A _menus_group
100_Club_A _bar_group
100_Club_B_zone
100_Club_B _menus_group
100_Club_B _bar_group
If you have a very large club with hundreds of DMPs, you may want to have a zone called “Club A
Menus” and then have individual groups with each group showing a different menu.

All zone and group names must be unique. Group, zone, and location names cannot have
