Ikusi by Fagor FLOW-DEVICE-MGR – Centralized Device Management System for FLOW Headend

FLOW-DEVICE-MGR is the centralized device management software integrated natively into the FLOW-HUB control module, enabling operators to manage all IPTV set-top boxes and smart TVs across a deployment from a single, unified platform. Activated through a one-time lifetime license with no renewal requirement, FLOW-DEVICE-MGR automates channel list distribution, IP address assignment, and startup configuration — eliminating the need for manual device-by-device setup and dramatically reducing both deployment time and ongoing management overhead.

Key Features:

• Native FLOW-HUB integration — Built directly into the FLOW HUB control module, FLOW DEVICE MGR requires no additional server hardware or external software platform, keeping the headend infrastructure lean and cost-effective.
• Lifetime license, no renewal — Activated through a one-time perpetual license that never expires and requires no subscription or renewal fees, providing operators with long-term cost certainty.
• Automatic multicast channel list generation — Automatically generates and distributes an up-to-date multicast channel list to all connected STB-IP devices. Any change made to the headend configuration triggers an immediate, automatic update of the channel list across all devices.
• Automatic IP address assignment — When an STB-IP connects to the network, the headend automatically assigns an IP address via DHCP and simultaneously delivers the URL for downloading the current channel list — ensuring every device is configured correctly from the moment it connects.
• Centralized default channel management — Operators can centrally define the default startup channel displayed on each STB at power-on, enabling consistent, branded viewer experiences across all rooms or zones without touching individual devices.
• Broad device compatibility — Supports a wide range of IPTV endpoints including FLOW STB, FLOW STB AC3+, LG smart TVs (API HCAP HTML5), Samsung smart TVs (API H.BROWSER), and Philips smart TVs (API JAPIT), making it suitable for mixed-device hotel and hospitality deployments.
• Zero-touch device deployment — The combination of automatic IP assignment, instant channel list delivery, and centralized startup configuration enables true plug-and-play deployment of new devices with no manual intervention required at the device level.
