Procedure


It's easy to monitor third-party devices  for example, a network-connected TV monitor in Q-SYS Core Manager or remotely in Q-SYS Reflect. In your design, use the Monitoring Proxy component to allow a third-party device to report its status to Core Manager and Q-SYS Reflect. You can also trigger custom log events from a scripting component such as Text Controller or Block Controller. 

Refer to the Monitoring Proxy topic in the Q-SYS Help for requirements, configuration steps, and examples.
