To set up NeuroomNet, the NeuroomNet server software is installed on a computer that can access at least a local network. This NeuroomNet server can then remotely control, monitor and control devices accessible in the network via this network. We call this constellation of Neuroomnet server, network and controlled devices a NeuroomNet installation.

The (administrative) frontend/software of the NeuroomNet server can be started from any device using a web browser. Here the NeuroomNet installation can be configured on the software side and devices connected on the hardware side can be remotely controlled, automated, monitored and controlled.

To do this, log in to the NeuroomNet login page so that you end up on the NeuroomNet module selection page or, in short: NeuroomNet homepage:

For the sake of clarity, the functionality of the NeuroomNet system is divided into individual modules, each of which covers a specific functional area:

  • Monitoring: In this module, the status of an installation monitored by NeuroomNet can be quickly recorded and checked from a bird's eye view

  • Setup: In the setup module, the specific devices (components) connected via NeuroomNet can be defined and grouped. In addition, so-called switching sequences can be defined, for example to be able to switch an entire building on and off with one click.

  • Rights management: NeuroomNet users and their permissions can be set in the rights management.

  • Content Management: NeuroomNet includes a cloud-based, headless content management system (CMS for short), which provides content for devices connected to the NeuroomNet system (such as exhibits, digital signage players or websites). After initial configuration, appropriate content (text, graphics, video, etc.) can be entered and changed into the CMS using this module.

  • Translation: Here the Neuroomnet system (website) can be translated into different languages.

  • Script blocks (media control): In the "Script blocks" module (formerly known as media control), scripts can be defined which are automatically activated via defined triggers (e.g. when a signal is received from a motion detector or RFID reader, when the value of a global variable changes or a specific button is clicked on a dashboard).

  • Time control: In this module, schedules can be created and activated, which ensure that certain switching sequences or other component actions are carried out automatically at specified times.

  • Digital Signage: This module was developed specifically for the typical requirements of digital signage and can therefore display content such as videos and images on any number of displays in a time-controlled and automatic manner.

  • Dashboard: Graphical user interfaces or dashboards can be designed here for (even non-technical) operators of a NeuroomNet installation. Using various views and controls, scripts or actions can be triggered in components or the states of a NeuroomNet installation (e.g. whether a certain light is turned on) can be displayed.

  • Traffic Inspector: Tool for live logging and debugging of executed scripts and actions

  • File management: File management can be used to copy files directly between client computers in a NeuroomNet installation.

  • Heatmap: Using appropriate sensors, heatmaps can be used to visualize how many people are in certain parts of buildings.

  • Tickets: Integrated ticketing system for handling technical incidents.

  • Tools: In this tool database, tools from the real world (drilling machines, cable drums, etc.) can be inventoried and managed for central tool management.

  • Modules for interface administration (KNX Administration, DMX / ArtNet Administration, isMaster Administration, Exhibits API, PRT files): Modules for configuring technical interfaces to devices / components.

The individual modules are described in detail in the following chapters.
