KT-205WM – Using the Kramer Control agent (connecting to Brain)

Methods of Setting the Control Interface URL

When the touch panel starts, the (pre-installed) Kramer Control agent runs automatically. You will need to set up its connection with the Kramer Brain, so that it can display the desired control interface.

There are 3 possible methods of setting the interface IP in the Kramer Control agent:

1. In the Kramer Control agent (on the touch panel screen).

2. Using the API (on a remote computer connected to the same network).

3. In the Brain software (setting up the touch panel in the Brain software).

Any one of these methods can load the interface URL into the touch panel’s Kramer Control agent.

1. Entering the interface IP in the Kramer Control agent

a. Kramer Control agent opens

automatically when the touch panel starts. If no interface IP has been entered, the Kramer Agent’s Welcome screen is displayed:

• If the touch panel is not displaying the Welcome screen, open the Kramer Agent app from the

touch panel’s Home page and it

will be displayed.

b. Press Control Interface; the Launch

URL pop-up appears.

Figure 15: The Kramer Agent Welcome screen

c. Enter the IP address and port of the

interface that was defined in Kramer Brain, for example

https://192.168.88.180:8001.

If more than one interface is defined in the

Brain, the Brain’s IP and port must be

followed by two parameters: /?Interface=<interface ID>&page=<page ID>.

Figure 16: The Launch URL pop-up

See also Finding the Control Interface IP on page 19 and Example of Setting the Launch

URL on page 22.

d. By default, the Kramer Control box is checked, setting the tablet in Immersive Mode: In

Immersive (full screen) mode, the system bars are hidden, and users can only exit the interface by swiping up and entering a PIN. Immersive mode is recommended for the Kramer

Control interface; Disable it if you are using a generic webpage (such as www.google.com). e. Press OK and the touch panel will load your interface. f. To exit the Control Interface and access touch panel controls, slide your fingers up from the

bottom of the screen and enter the PIN (default 9428).

2. Controlling the Kramer Control agent by API call

This method of changing settings of the Kramer Control interface can be done remotely, without using the touch panel. For more information see Using the Kramer Control Agent’s API on page 22.

Note: The touch panel must be switched on and connected to the same LAN.

a) Open a browser window on a computer connected to the same network as the touch panel. b) To set the IP of the Control Interface displayed by the Call the touch panel in the following

format:

https://<IP of the touch panel>:9804/launchkramerurl?<IP of the brain interface>:<port #>

• Example 1 (single interface defined in Brain):

If the touch panel IP is “192.168.0.56” and the Brain interface IP is “192.168.22.53:8001”,

enter https://192.168.0.56:9804/launchkramerurl?192.168.22.53:8001

• Example 2 (multiple interfaces defined in Brain):

The URL must include the full interface ID and page. Touch panel IP is “192.168.0.56”

and the Brain interface IP is “192.168.2.53:8001/?interface=e84f5fb8-c5a3-4675-9006-

d79d3e6cfe59&page=5913c07a-9a41-4fac-9870-e87b1ef719df”. Enter

https://192.168.0.56:9804/launchkramerurl?192.168.2.53:8001/?interface=e84f5fb 8-c5a3-4675-9006-d79d3e6cfe59&page=5913c07a-9a41-4fac-9870-e87b1ef719df

After this command is sent, the touch pad will display the Brain-defined interface and a status response message returned to the sender.

3. Setup the touch panel in the Brain Builder

The advantage of this method is that future changes to the interface are automatically uploaded to the tablet.

The following assumes that:

a) The interface is already setup in the Brain. b) The touch panel is active and connected to the same network as the Brain. c) The IP of the touch panel is static and DHCP assigned.

1. Preliminary Setup: In the Devices tab of the Builder screen, add the K-Agent driver as a device. It must be assigned to the same network gateway as the touch panel.

2. Navigate to the Brain control page on your computer.

3. Select the interface that you want to use on the touch panel.

4. Copy the interface’s URL from the address bar (see the image below).

5. Navigate back to the Builder, double click on the touch panel (in the Devices list) and paste the URL from the previous step to the Kramer Control URL. Assign it a Friendly Name.

Figure 18: Kramer Control URL in the Builder

6. For the Brain to be able to automatically assign the user interface to the touch panel: (see the image on the next page)

a) In the Events tab, click System Events and select “Initialization”. b) Drag the Launch Kramer URL command to the ‘Initialization’ ACTIONS area. c) Select the Friendly Name (If only one interface is defined, it will be used by default).
