In setups with multiple computers, it is very convenient if the shutdown can be executed centrally from the control computer.

Pixera Control offers this possibility with the UI Builder. In the following it is explained how such a control possibility can be realized.


Control Local Engine


  1. Create a button inside your UI

  2. Click on the module select tool and choose “Pixera”

  3. Click on the button and click on the “arrow to the right”
    You should see the word Pixera now above the button

  4. For the local Manager navigate to the following:

    Pixera>LiveSystem>Local
    Choose shutdown
    Save User Interface
    Repeat for all machines and that you are presented within Pixera>LiveSystems


    1. Delete

      NOTE

      Either Pixera UI or the Presence must be running on the remote system to be able to utilize it on the Director System



      Please use one button per machine.


  5. In the next step - save the function by pressing this button


  6. Change in to "live mode" to be able to execute the action by pressing the button



    • Delete

      WARNING

      Pressing this button will shut down the machine without further warning
