WEBBRIDGE
Control your Q-SYS Named Controls from any browser.
Module Overview
WebBridge is a fully self-contained Q-SYS plugin that turns your Core into a lightweight web server. Open http://<core-ip>:8234 from any device on the network and get instant access to your Named Controls through a clean, responsive interface. Drop the plugin into your design, deploy, and open the URL. The embedded web app connects automatically over WebSocket for real-time, bidirectional sync. Faders, buttons, text fields — everything updates live across all connected clients. No app to install, no external server to run. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are embedded directly in the plugin — zero external dependencies. The BV Factory dark UI includes search, grouping, and grid/list views for quick navigation across large control sets. A read-only prefix lets you expose monitoring controls without risk of accidental changes.
Core Features
- Zero Dependencies — HTML, CSS, and JS are embedded directly in the plugin. No external server, no app to install, no configuration files.
- Real-Time WebSocket — Bidirectional sync on a single port. Every fader move, button press, and text change updates live across all connected clients.
- Auto-Discovery — Named Controls are discovered automatically via pin wiring or a comma-separated list in plugin properties.
- Multi-Control Types — Supports faders, toggles, text inputs, and triggers out of the box. Controls render automatically based on their Q-SYS type.
- Read-Only Prefix — Protect sensitive controls from accidental changes by adding a prefix. Read-only controls are visible but not editable.
- Multi-Client — Up to 20 simultaneous browser connections. Each client sees the same state in real time.
- BV Factory Dark UI — Clean, responsive interface with search, grouping, and grid/list views. Works on phones, tablets, and laptops.
- 30-Second Setup — Add the plugin, wire your controls, push to Core, open the URL. Done.
