COMPANION DASHBOARD

A way to display variables from Bitfocus Companion

oVERVIEW

  • The settings pane is at the bottom of the app, hover over it to connect to Companion, add a new box, clear all of the boxes, download a layout, and load a layout from file.

  • Click and drag a box to reposition it, and grab the handle in the bottom right of the box to resize it.

  • Double-click a box to edit it. You can add a Companion variable to any text field.

I am not directly connected to Bitfocus or the Companion project. I am simply sharing a tool I made for myself that connects to the Companion API.

Data for Dashboard is pulled from Companion at a certain rate, and in turn Companion is polling connected modules at a certain rate. Because of this, data displayed in Dashboard is delayed. The delay is usually one second at the most. The original source/device should be used for the most accurate timing.
