Requirements
To use the HID Media Control, you need a USB A/B cable to connect a PC or Mac computer to the Q-SYS Core 110f processor.
Note: The HID Media Control is designed to control a remote, Q-SYS Core-connected computer from another Q-SYS-connected device (computer, touch screen controller, etc.). The component should not be used directly from the computer connected to the Core, as unexpected behavior can occur.
Configuration Overview
- Connect the USB A/B cable's rectangular 'A' connector to a USB port on a PC or Mac computer.
- Connect the other end of the cable, the square 'B' connector, to the USB B port on the rear panel of the Q-SYS Core 110f processor.
- On another PC connected to the Q-SYS network, drag the HID Media Control component into your schematic from the Core 110f inventory tree.
- Press F5 to save your design to the Core and run it.
- Double-click the component to open the control panel. Use the buttons to remotely control playback within a Core-connected computer media application.
Note: The Core-connected computer's OS determines which media application is controlled.
