Overview
The Foto Master system allows users to retrieve photos from their iPad Booth application directly to a computer using the Photo Mosaic PC Agent, with Dropbox serving as the intermediary storage solution.
Key Steps
1. Enable Dropbox Sync on iPad
First, activate the Dropbox feature within your Foto Master iPad Booth app. The documentation references a detailed guide for this configuration process.
2. Install Photo Mosaic Agent
Download and install the Photo Mosaic Agent on your designated computer. This can be the same machine running your Photo Mosaic Wall application or a separate system.
3. Synchronize Activation
Configure synchronization between your Photo Mosaic Wall activation and the Photo Mosaic Agent by enabling the feature and applying a matching password.
4. Install Dropbox Desktop
Download Dropbox from their official website. Once installed, the application creates a Dropbox drive accessible on your computer's file system.
5. Configure File Path
When setting up the Photo Mosaic Agent:
- Browse to your Dropbox drive
- Select the folder containing your photos
Example: select the RawPhotos folder from an iPad event folder named MyFirstEvent.
Result
This workflow enables automatic photo retrieval from your iPad Booth to your Photo Mosaic Wall display through cloud-based file synchronization.
