Network Viewer

Settings → Network Viewer has two sub-tabs: Host (Mirror) for running a viewer server, and Connect (Viewer) for connecting this LTCast machine as a passive viewer of another.

Host (Mirror) sub-tab

Controls for running the Viewer Mirror on this machine:

• Enable network viewer mirror — master toggle; starts or stops the mirror server
• Port — the HTTP port to listen on (default 7777); change and restart if the port is in use
• Viewer URLs — auto-detected list of LAN addresses; updates when the network changes
• Copy first URL — copies the first listed address to the clipboard

PIN authentication

• Require PIN — toggle on to add a 4-digit PIN gate; toggling restarts the server briefly
• PIN display — shows the current PIN when Require PIN is enabled
• Reveal PIN — shows the PIN if it was hidden

Push alerts

• Message field — text of the alert to send
• Role field — optional department filter; blank sends to all viewers
• Requires ACK — checkbox; viewer banner stays until tapped OK
• Push — sends the alert immediately
• Recent alerts grid — list of sent alerts with ACK status per role

Stage Monitor

• List of connected viewers with role, name, status badge, and last message
• HOLD / CLEAR HOLD — broadcasts a hold alert to all viewers; press again to clear

Cloud Share (Pro)

• Share via cloud link — toggle to enable public URL via Cloudflare relay (Pro feature)
• Public URL display — shown when Cloud Share is active
• Copy link — copies the public URL to the clipboard
• QR code — scannable QR for the public URL

Connect (Viewer) sub-tab

Controls for connecting this machine as a read-only viewer of another LTCast machine:

• Act as a read-only viewer — master toggle; enters viewer mode when on
• Host — IP address of the primary LTCast machine
• Port — mirror port of the primary (default 7777)
• PIN — 4-digit PIN if the primary requires one; leave blank if no PIN
• Status indicator — shows: Connecting, Connected, Wrong PIN, or Disconnected

When connected, a VIEWING · READ-ONLY badge appears in the main UI header. Click EXIT or press Esc to disconnect and return to normal operation.
