Alexander Mott 12.1 48 = Accessing the ShowRunner™ Console =
49
50 To access the ShowRunner™ console, connect to the VC-4 with PuTTY or another text console, log in to Linux, and then run the command ##telnet 127.0.0.1 50001##
51
52 This command will open a telnet session with the ShowRunner™ program running on the VC-4, enabling the use of typical "sr" commands. To leave the ShowRunner™ console, press the escape character as indicated when the telnet session first starts (by default it is '^]', which corresponds to ctrl+])
53
Scott Kohlmann 9.1 54 = Accessing the ShowRunnerHUB™ Web UI =
Mark Kohlmann 2.2 55
Alexander Mott 14.1 56 The ShowRunner™ configuration should be uploaded to the processor using the ShowRunnerHUB™ web UI. It is not possible to access the ShowRunnerHUB™ web UI by directly navigating to the IP address of the VC-4 server, instead it is necessary to navigate to the following URL: https:~/~/**vc-4ip**/VirtualControl/Rooms/**ROOMID**/cws/showrunner/app/ (Bold portions should be modified with your specific IP and Room ID, **DO NOT OMIT THE LAST "/"**)
Mark Kohlmann 2.2 57
Mark Kohlmann 8.1 58 VC-4 Currently does NOT serve the XPANEL:
Scott Kohlmann 9.1 59 The XPanel does not launch from the ShowRunnerHUB webpage. To access the XPanel, extract the VTZ file from the ShowRunnerCLC™ puf file and launch. Select Options>Host Settings and input the Host IP, IPID, Port 41794, check SSL, enter the Room ID, and Open. Type in the username and password (if applicable) and wait for the XPanel to connect.
