SiteCaster and SiteRemote will be discontinued on December 31, 2025. Please use the successor product SiteKiosk Online instead.
If you are using your own SiteRemote server and the client is already logged in, the configuration settings for SiteCaster and SiteRemote will continue to be displayed.
For clients without a valid login, the configuration settings for SiteCaster and SiteRemote can be accessed by manually editing the SiteKiosk configuration file.
Open the file with an editor and change the line
<plugin name="SiteRemote" shown="false" enabled="true" clsid="2F5B83E1-88BC-44D2-9E5D-B3D621C4A292">
to
<plugin name="SiteRemote" shown="true" enabled="true" clsid="2F5B83E1-88BC-44D2-9E5D-B3D621C4A292">
Using the split screen option, you can display SiteCaster content in combination with the SiteKiosk browser.
Normally, the mouse is confined to the SiteKiosk area of the screen. This option can adjusted by using the option to restrict the mouse pointer to the browser area of the primary monitor.
Note:
The split screen option requires the SiteCaster functions of SiteRemote. A SiteRemote team account must be created in order for the SiteCaster projects to be created and published to the selected machines.
Decide whether you would like the screen (the main screen if a second monitor is connected) to display a combination of SiteKiosk and SiteCaster. If you want to combine
SiteCaster and SiteKiosk, you can choose where to display those elements on the screen
.
Define the size of the
SiteCaster area on the screen. Use that size when creating your project in the
SiteCaster editor of SiteRemote.
When using a resolution below a minimum width of 1024 pixels, many of the standard skins and the on-screen keyboards in SiteKiosk can only be used with restrictions. Note that SiteKiosk automatically adjusts the size of the
SiteCaster area during the start process if if goes below the height and/or width of the SiteKiosk escape menu to make sure SiteKiosk can be exited normally.
