MIDI-MT Documentation in English
Allows you to manage configured controls using a remote control panel. This is a built-in “Web application”, interaction with which occurs through a browser, as a result, use is possible on any operating system.
For the module to work, it is necessary to accept incoming requests; this requires setting up the “windows firewall”, as in the image below:
In the Network Settings group, selecting Network Interface will limit access to the control panel to the selected network only.
The “Port” field specifies on which port to
accept input requests; the default port number is
8888.
The Connection Timeout option specifies the time to wait for the connection in milliseconds.
The Wait Timeout option specifies the time to wait for a client response in milliseconds.
The checked item “Use IPv6” enables
IPv6 support for WebSocket, and the type of
the selected network interface must also be IPv6.
The “Fast socket opening” option allows you to minimize timings when receiving and transmitting data.
The “Address reuse” item is used to disable
exclusive access when accessing system sockets. Enabled by
default.
Selecting “Client session logging level” turns on or off the recording of debugging information about network exchange and commands to the general log file.
The “Save Settings” button will allow you to save the changes you have made in the current session. To save in a configuration file, after saving the session settings, you must use the “Save settings” button on the main screen of the “Start” dialog.
Any changes made using MIDI Control Surface,
control panels and other input devices are
immediately reflected on all connected control panels. For example, this
can help control lighting fixtures with a team of operators. Also, when
setting up sound in a studio, it is convenient to be able to regulate
sound channels remotely, changing the sound level locally.
Authorization or other protective measures for access to the remote
control panel are not provided; the solution is designed to work in a
local network. If necessary, for access via the Internet, you can
install any HTTPS front-end with Web Socket
support, for example nginx.
It is also possible to edit the configuration file in any editor you are familiar with. The main section of the “remote control panel” module settings looks like this:
