Question: Can we use a dual screen video setup from the automation PC so that the Webstation software screen shows up on a second screen. |
---|
Answer: Yes, this is possible. Running the Webstation Meters on any pc in your LAN network will work since control data is distributed over the LAN. |
Question: Is it possible the get the meter and control information for the Windows software, via the VOIP USB port? |
---|
Answer: The machine which is connected to the USB MAIN port needs to run the Webstation Control application to distribute the control signals over the LAN (UDP/IP). |
In such a way any application on any machine can use the Webstation control signals. |
This means controlling/configuring the Airlite or use Webstation Meters for displaying meter data. |
Even controlling the Webstation from an external location, i.e. your home (when no one is in the studio) is possible through the Internet. |
Question: On my Apple Mac OSX the Control software loses connection. |

Answer: There is an Appnap script added in the installation which prevents the Control software to go in sleep mode. Some users need to run this manually. |
