Tablette wifi ou par cable?

[Roamin]

Bonjour, 

 Je me pose une question: est il possible de faire la liaison entre la FLX et une tablette type Ipad avec les applications Monitor et Remote en branchant directement la tablette a l'un des USB de la console sans utiliser le wifi?

Bonjour,

Les applications ZerOS Remote & Monitor sur iPad ne peuvent pas se connecter à la console via USB, mais si vous souhaitez utiliser une connexion filaire, vous pouvez utiliser Ethernet à la place.

Quel modèle est votre iPad? Selon le modèle, vous pourrez utiliser soit un adaptateur Lightning vers Ethernet, soit un adaptateur USB-C vers Ethernet. Lorsqu'il est connecté à l'iPad, une nouvelle option «Ethernet» apparaîtra dans l'application Paramètres sous l'option «Wi-Fi» habituelle. En appuyant dessus, vous pourrez alors configurer les paramètres réseau de votre iPad. Si vous utilisez un serveur DHCP sur le réseau, l'iPad se verra automatiquement attribuer une adresse IP. Si vous souhaitez brancher l'iPad directement sur la console, vous devrez configurer une adresse IP statique sur l'iPad qui se trouve sur le même sous-réseau que la connexion à distance de la console.

J'espère que cela vous aidera, si vous avez des questions, faites-le moi savoir.

 

Hello,

The ZerOS Remote & Monitor apps on iPad cannot connect to the console via USB, however if you wish to use a wired connection, you can use Ethernet instead.

What model is your iPad? Depending on the model, you will be able to use either a Lightning to Ethernet adapter, or USB-C to Ethernet adapter. When this is connected to iPad, a new "Ethernet" option will appear in the Settings app under the usual "Wi-Fi" option. Tapping this will then allow you to configure the network settings of your iPad. If you are using a DHCP server on the network, the iPad will automatically be assigned an IP. If you wish to plug the iPad directly into the console via Ethernet, you will need to configure a static IP on the iPad which is on the same subnet as the remote connection of the console.

I hope this helps, if you have any questions please let me know.

I've replaced my touch screen monitor with a reconditioned Windows tablet and a docking station and set up 3 connection configurations for different circumstance.

1. My main configuration is a DMX King Artnet node and a Netgear router on stage with two 30m cat6 cables to FOH. The tablet then connects wirelessly and/or wired (through the docking station).
2. Where there is an existing DMX connection to the stage I drop the node & router on stage and the long cat6 and just connect the tablet wirelessly to the desk using a PQI mobile router.
3. As I don't fully trust wireless connections and WiFi routers can have issues if there are other networks and/or smart phones searching for connections, the tablet and the desk are set up as fixed I/P adresses and both routers have been set up to give those fixed adresses to them. I can then use a cat5 crossover cable (or a standard cable with a crossover adaptor) to connect the docking station direct to the desk without a router.

The advantage of using a Windows tablet (rather than iPad or Android) is that it can run the Artnet configuration, the fixture editor and the Zero88 monitor as well as the software for configuring my Midi devices thereby removing the need to pack a laptop. Apart from that the same configurations should work with other tablets equipped with the appropriate network adaptors.

There's nothing special about the routers apart from the configuration which I had to do manually, mostly by trial and error. Make sure you save and backup your configurations and can connect to your routers with something that can make a wired connection and upload the backup The Windows tablet can do this but iPads and Android with wired adaptors should be able to do it as well.

The picture below shows the tablet on its docking station and (underneath, left to right) the PQI router, a crossover adaptor and a crossover cable (these are usually labelled by the manufacturer as you can see in the photo).

Sounds like a nice neat set up. Thanks for sharing.
