Client setup

Anyone on the network with KeyShot Network Rendering installed can connect to the Manager and view the queue via the Monitor. If you have the right user privileges, you can administer users, reorder the jobs of the queue, and download and delete Jobs.

In order to submit jobs to Network Rendering you need to have KeyShot Studio installed.

Installation

Download and install Network Rendering from here. Upon installation the Network Configurator is automatically launched – Simply select Only Monitor and you are ready to go. The Monitor will automatically be launched when you finish the Network Configurator.

Establish Connection

In the Monitor under  File > Connection Settings you can specify the connection method.

Auto detect

By default, the connection is set to Auto-Detect and connect to the Manager. When this is enabled, the Monitor will scan the network to find a manager and connect to it.

Custom connection

if you need to connect to a specific manager, eg. because you have Multiple Managers on the same network. You simply disable auto-detecting of the Manager and enter a Manager hostname and the correct Monitor port number.
