PlayStation Lounge TV and Console Management: All from One Screen

Start the session and get the PlayStation and TV ready

When a customer arrives, you need to choose a station, start their time and prepare the devices. EveryCafe Manager links these actions to the same PlayStation table instead of treating them as separate tasks.

A properly paired, supported PlayStation console can wake from rest mode at the start of a session and return to rest mode when it ends. This does not mean powering a completely shut-down console on or off.

Since EveryCafe Manager 1.0.238, compatible smart TVs can join the process. Pair the television with its PlayStation station and it can turn on when play starts and off when the session ends. Staff no longer need to find a remote for every new customer.

Where does a PlayStation lounge lose time?

Turning on a television takes seconds. Repeat that across ten stations throughout a busy day, alongside extensions and new customers, and those small tasks add up. One group finishes while another adds players, and the next station must be prepared.

EveryCafe Manager is more than a countdown timer. It places station availability, session time, console control and pricing in the cashier’s central view. Staff can see what is occupied, what is about to finish and what needs attention without walking around the lounge.

• Fewer manual trips to switch consoles and TVs.
• A smoother handover between customers and sessions.
• Better control over televisions left on after play.
• A more consistent experience when players arrive at a ready station.

Which Samsung, LG, TCL and other smart TVs are supported?

Gaming lounges often use several TV brands or models. EveryCafe Manager provides setup options for Samsung, LG, TCL, Vestel and Google TV / Android TV devices.

The television must be paired with the correct PlayStation table for session-based power control. Listed platforms do not guarantee compatibility with every model; check the TV’s capabilities and network connection during setup.

Session time and pricing belong in the same workflow

A well-run lounge needs more than remote power controls. It also needs reliable records of start time, remaining time, session extensions and what the customer should pay.

EveryCafe Manager lets you track PlayStation sessions and define rates centrally. Version 1.0.238 also introduced player-count pricing, so a single station can have different rates for solo play and multiplayer sessions.
