User Manual Question #504

Open owebeewan opened 1 year ago

owebeewan commented 1 year ago

I need to control OnlyT from my seat in the audience but have the speaker see the timer on a monitor in the ceiling. I am using Windows Surface Pro. I have not yet purchased the monitor.

How can I configure this such that I can wirelessly display OnlyT on the monitor?

I imagine that I can make the monitor as a separate Windows screen but doing so wirelessly is beyond my knowledge horizon.

Can you help guide me in this scenario? As a larger help, it might be good to include this as some kind of "user configuration" section in the FAQ. Thank you!

@owebeewan A standard configuration would be to install OnlyT on the main desk's PC which is also connected to the monitor (usually using a wired connection, but Miracast is possible too). Then use the OnlyT android or ios remote to control the timer.

If you want to do everything from your Surface, you should perhaps investigate Miracast support.
