Touchpanel Node Restrictions

Last modified by Mark Kohlmann on 2023/06/24 00:09

ShowRunnerCLC 3.34 and newer allow a touchpanel to have its area list and scheduled events filtered based on a Node.  At the moment part of this configuration must be done manually.  Below are the steps necessary to perform this configuration.  Any areas defined to the node assigned to the touchpanel and defined within any child node will be accessible to the touchpanel.

In this example we are going to setup a touchpanel to allow access to only "Workrooms".

Steps:

  1. Login into the showrunner HUB interface with a web browser
  2. Create a Node and organize your areas

  4. Open the config in a text editor.  VS Code or Notepad++ are recommended
  5. Find the Nodes section and look for Workrooms

  6. Select the contents of the UniqueId field and copy:

  7. Find the touchpanel entry you wish to apply the restriction to in the "Touchpanels" section and paste in the NodeId.  If NodeId doesn't exist go ahead and add it (make sure you're on SR 3.034 or newer):

  8. Save the config and upload it back to showrunner
  9. Verify the areas and schedules list are restricted on the approriate touchpanel

If desired, the NodeId can be applied to scheduled events entries in the same manner as the touchpanel.
