Remote Options

Edward Updated by Edward

NEO can connect to a remote database server to allow multiple users to manipulate the same show. Details of how to set up the database server and connect to it with NEO is available in the document titled “NEO Multi User Setup Guide” which is accessed from the “Options” menu.

The following options can be set to control certain features of the remote connection.

Remote ID - Multiple remote connections to the master are permitted, but each connection must have a unique ID. If only one remote is connected, the default ID of 1 may be used.

Network Adapter - Use the pulldown menu to select the network adapter (by IP address) that will be used connect to the master. If you wish to connect to the server running in the local PC, choose the 127.0.0.1 address.

Force Active Partition - If the show file loaded on the master has defined partitions, the remote system can be set to restrict access to the channels defined in the chosen partition.

Disable Output on Remote Startup - Default: On – If the local PC being used as a remote also has DMX hardware attached to it, the output will be disabled and the message “Output Muted” will be displayed at the bottom of the main window. By setting this option to “Off” before connecting to the master, the DMX output will be enabled on the local system in addition to the master. Once connected, this option may be toggled with the “Mute Output” button found at the top of the Patch window.

Receive Channel Updates - Default: On – If manual changes are made to channels on the master they will be shown on the remote(s).

Send Channel Updates - Default: On – Manual changes made to channels on the remote will be reflected on the master.

First/Last Channel - In lieu of or in addition to partitions, the range of channels on the master controllable by the remote can be set with these controls.

Track Master Cue List - Default: On – Keeps the Cue List Master Playback on both systems synchronized. If Off, cue commands executed on the master will not be reflected on the remote.

Send Shortcuts - Default: On – Shortcut commands executed on the remote will be sent to the master.

Send Submasters - Default: On – Operating a submaster on the remote will be reflected on the master.

Track Effects - Default: On – Synchronizes running effects on both systems. If Off, effects run on the master will not be reflected on the remote.

Allow Show File Changes from Remotes - Default: Off – This control is active only if not connected to a remote system. If On when a connection to a master is established, allows the ability to load show files from the remote.
