Remote display & timing control
Reach any display, anywhere.
RemoteDisplay sends data from the internet to local display boards without laying cables or getting physical access to them. Configure an unlimited number of scenes and switch between them at any time — a clock, a runtime with a given start time, a "start delayed" message, or timing data relayed straight from a remote device to your local timing software.
Three ways to connect
One service, several signal paths
Remote Display
An unlimited number of scenes can be pre-configured and changed at any time - one scene for a clock, one for a runtime with a given start time of day, one for a text saying start delayed…
Two communication options are available:
-
RS232-capable router — a local RS232-capable internet
router receives already formatted data and sends it onto the display board. This
needs a reliable internet connection.
-
Android phone — a phone with a USB-RS232 adapter receives
the remote control commands and generates the data for the display board
locally. This way you keep all the benefits of the webservice while still
running smoothly even when connectivity is not reliable.
Remote Timing
Timing data like impulses or bib stages can be sent from a remotely deployed timing device to local timing software. No physical access like wires or a local wireless connection is needed anymore.
Remote Redirect
Basically, any type of small pieces of data can be transmitted from one location to another — be it a software or hardware device that is sender or receiver.
The online documentation shows a list of recommended approaches for connectivity and how to configure these devices.
