NFREMOTE CLIENT SOFTWARE

Some Important Ethernet/Wi-Fi Network Considerations

While the client software itself is not a terribly resource-intensive application, it does place some demands upon your local
network. The client allows you to make "live" adjustments to the Omnia.9, observe its meters (as well as other displays such
as the oscilloscope) in real time, and on networks with sufficient bandwidth play audio from the Omnia.9 to your remote
control PC. The more information the client asks for, the more critical it is to have a robust Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the
between it and Omnia.9.

Understanding the NfRemote Connection Window

It is possible to connect to any number of Omnia.9's individually or concurrently using NfRemote.
The Comment field allows you to enter a "friendly" name for each device to which you plan to connect.
♦
The IP Address field should contain the IP address of the Omnia.9 host computer.
♦
The Password field should contain the same password established in the Omnia.9.
♦
The Connection Type dropdown menu determines whether the connection is Outbound (NfRemote initiates connection
♦
to Omnia.9) or Inbound (Omnia.9 listens for an incoming connection request from an instance of NfRemote). Note
that the IP addresses of inbound connections are enclosed by chevrons.
It is possible to stream audio from the Omnia.9 to a remote PC using NfRemote. The Audio Streaming dropdown menu
♦
enables this feature and determines the type of data compression used to deliver the audio as well as the oscilloscope,
RTA, and FFT display information.
Automatic chooses the best audio format based upon connection speed.
