In MealViewer, Blocks determine at what time and location menus are displayed on digital signage and also how menus will be grouped within Digital Suite. They are configured within MealViewer; however, you are able to establish Blocks within Edison to be sent over with your menus when syncing with MealViewer. You can assign the Blocks to menus in the Menu Templates screen.
- From the Advanced option, select MealViewer Blocks.
- Scroll to the bottom of the list and click in the cell next to the asterisk*.

Select a site and then select Edit Site.

The Line 3 Display Group will show recipes from the Gluten-Free Bar, Salad Bar, and the Vegan bar. The Line 4 Display Group will show all recipes which have not been assigned a Menu Group.
