Managers are people who help run your business with their own login. A Room Station can sign in on its own, so nobody types a password on the computer that runs a Room. The owner manages both in Account Settings → Team. Only the owner sees this page.

​
Invite a Manager

  1. Select Invite Manager and enter their email address.
  2. Choose what else they can use. Every Manager can run Rooms, manage Game Master Profiles and set up Room Stations.
  3. If you have more than one Location, choose Every Location, including new ones, or Only these Locations and pick them.
  4. Select Send invite. They get a link to set a password. It works for 7 days; select Resend invite if it runs out.
Managers cost nothing extra. To change what a Manager can use, select Edit access. To take it away, select Remove from team. Either change applies right away. Your Rooms and past games don’t change. A Manager limited to some Locations sees only those Locations’ Rooms, games and Analytics. Leaderboard settings and the Analytics assistant cover every Location, so they need Every Location. Membership, billing, Locations, the Team page and Beta features always stay with the owner.

​
Set up a Room Station

  1. On the computer that runs the Room, select Get a code on the sign-in page, or open escapedirector.com/station-setup. It shows a short code that works for 10 minutes.
  2. On your phone, sign in as the owner or a Manager and open escapedirector.com/station.
  3. Enter the code, then choose the Location and a name, such as The Vault. Select Approve.
The computer then signs in on its own as a Room Station and opens its Rooms. Managers can approve Room Stations only for their own Locations.

What a Room Station can do

A Room Station starts locked. Locked, it runs games and shows Leaderboards for its one Location, and nothing else. The header shows a lock, and the bottom of the side menu says Room Station · Locked. To do more on it, select Unlock, choose your name and type your own password. It then works like your own login, with your pages, your Locations and your access. It locks again when you select Lock now, or once nobody has used it for 15 minutes. The owner can change that time with Lock when idle on the Team page, or choose Only with Lock now so it stays unlocked until someone locks it. Games keep running while it locks and unlocks. Profile, Security, Membership and deleting the account stay closed on a Room Station, even when it’s unlocked. The station keeps its own sign-in so games keep running, so change these on your own phone or computer.
Unlocking needs an internet connection. Games still run offline as usual. If you sign in only with Google, set a password in Account Settings → Security on your own device before you unlock a Room Station.

​
Stop using a computer as a Room Station

  • On the computer itself: unlock it, then select Sign in as yourself from a closed page such as Profile. Room Station mode ends and the sign-in page opens. This waits until no game is running and every finished game has been saved.
  • From anywhere: in Account Settings → Team, select Remove beside the Room Station. It signs out at once. The row for the computer you’re on says (this computer).
To use that computer as a Room Station again, set it up with a new code.
