Web Remote

The stations can be remote-controlled by any browser connected to the system. This includes WiFi-connected devices.

A maximum of five devices can connect to one station at the same time.

Each remote device connects to a specific station. The remote browser shows the same controls and encoder view at the bottom of the display as the grandMA3 Compact, grandMA3 Compact XT, and grandMA3 onPC display 1. The user-definable area is the same as screen 1 on any consoles or onPC. The web remote will try to log in as the user Remote when connecting and the view and windows on screen 1 follow the logged-in user. The web remote can log in as a different user than the one currently logged in on the connected station. Learn more about multiuser setups in the Single User and Multi User Systems section.

Any window or view that can be created on a console or onPC can be used in the remote. The system will try to provide a high refresh rate of the content, but it is affected by the connection speed and the resolution.

Connect with a Web Remote

Web remotes need to be enabled in the station. This can be done in the Network Menu - see the Session topic to learn how to access this menu.

In the network menu, there is a toggle button that turns the web remote On or Off.

The same setting is mirrored in the actual Web Remote menu that can be accessed by tapping Web Remote on the left side in the network menu.

1. Make sure web remote is turned On in the station.
2. Open a browser on a network-connected device.
3. Type the IP address of the station and include :8080 after the address to specify the port number.
   The result should be a browser window with a grandMA3 display.

Now there is access to remote control the station with the user rights provided by the logged-in user.

A new show file has a user called Remote. This uses the default user profile but with a different screen configuration. Remote is also a keyword so if it is desired to log in as this user then type the following in the command line:

The Web Remote menu shows the connected devices. It is just information about the IP address, operating system, and browser.

There are three different settings that can be changed in the menu.

The remote connection can be turned On or Off.

A Resolution Limit can be set. There are options to limit it to 480p, 720p, 1080p, or unlimited. This limit is the same for every device that connects. If unlimited is selected, then the resolution is adopted to the device screen.

Connection Limit can be used to set a number between 1 and 5. This is the maximum amount of simultaneous connections allowed.

Linked Command Lines

There is a button on the connected remote device next to the host command line input.

This can be activated to link the remote command line input to the host command line input.

Linked command lines change the background color on both the remote and the host station. It could look like this:

Notice that the command input in the image above is not a valid command. It is just an example.

Any command input on any of the linked command lines is immediately shown on all the linked command lines where the users are logged in with the same user profile. Any executed commands are executed on the host station.
