Inbound services listening on this Mac, and outbound targets it talks to.

Entirely read-only — a dashboard, not a settings page. Every value here is changed in the tab that owns it. Use this when a phone can't reach Live Notes, or the desk's cues aren't landing, and you need to see what's actually listening.

Inbound — services listening on this Mac

OSC Cue Input (UDP), OSC Remote Control (UDP), QLab Reply (UDP, only when QLab is on), Live Notes (TCP), Stage Display (TCP), sACN Timecode (UDP 5568), Art-Net Timecode (UDP 6454).

Outbound — targets this Mac talks to

OSC Console Output (UDP), QLab (UDP), Companion Variables (HTTP), Companion Feedback (UDP), TheatreMix (UDP), and the NDI source.

Reading the status dots

ColourMeans
Green — LiveVerified: traffic is actually flowing
Orange — Enabled, unconfirmedSwitched on, nothing seen yet
Grey — Configured / offFire-and-forget UDP, where no acknowledgement exists to confirm delivery
Red — Conflict / errorTwo services on one port, or a bind failure

The dots pulse a ring on each packet, so you can watch a cue arrive.

A red banner appears if two services collide on the same port — "Port conflict on 8000 — two services share a port. Change one in its tab." The classic one is Millumin or Companion defaulting to 8000, the same port as the console cue input.
