Troubleshooting and installation of Steeple TV screens

Important: Always turn off the screen AND the box, then turn them back on in this order: screen first, box second.

Screen off / Steeple no longer displays

Probable cause: Weak or unstable network β€” the Steeplebox disconnects and does not reconnect automatically.

Basic checks

  • Turn on the screen, set the source to HDMI, turn on the box

  • Observe whether startup fails at the network login page

  4. Go to the Google page, click on the time at the bottom right

  5. Click the arrow next to the Wi-Fi icon

The touchscreen does not work

Probable cause: Problem with the USB cable connection between the Steeplebox and the screen.

Installation tips

  • Height : 1.50 m from the floor to the middle of the screen (accessibility for people with reduced mobility)

  • Cables : Do not leave cables lying around (safety)

  • Steeplebox : Hide it behind the screen to prevent anyone from touching it

  • USB cable : Essential between the Steeplebox and the screen for touch functionality

  • Automatic shutoff : Schedule automatic screen shutoff (eco-friendly approach)
