5.13 Remote Operation
Studer OnAir mixing consoles are networkable. There are three applications
for remote access or control via a network available.
System Viewer This application can be helpful in case of network problems. It displays all
devices within the OnAir network.
Remote Console Studer OnAir mixing consoles can either be controlled and configured directly
at the console (using their GUI and/or a connected USB keyboard and mouse),
or over a network using the Remote Console application running on a Win-
dows PC.
Remote Configuration Tool The Remote Configuration Tool application has additional, increased flex-
ibility by allowing the remote configuration of different networked consoles
from one single location.
Note: Up to three of these applications may run simultaneously on your PC – so
you can e.g. control three consoles at the same time, or control one console
while configuring two others.
5.13.1 Preparation
During the installation process you will have to enter the ID of and a name
for your System. The system ID is defined as the 3 least-significant digits of
the Nano SCore’s serial number you are connecting to. In case these 3 digits
should be greater than 255, it is equal to [the last 3 digits modulo 255]. Cal-
culate as follows: Subtract 255 from the last 3 digits as many times as needed
for a remainder between 0 and 255; the remainder is the result.
Example: If the last 3 digits are 621, enter 111 (621 – 255 = 366, and 366 –
255 = 111). The system ID can also be found out using the System Viewer
application, see below.
The system name can be freely choosen. However it is recommended to
give the system a name that is somehow connected to the System ID, such
as P1K5_111. The same name must then be used for the Remote Console
application.
Of course, it is mandatory that the PC and the console are located within the
same network.
PC Network Settings Check Network Connections (or similar). Make sure that the PC has an
IP address and that it is located within the same network as the OnAir system
you want to connect to. Since these settings are varying between different
Windows versions, no guidelines can be given here. Please ask your IT/net-
work administrator for assistance if necessary.
