Remote Access

Open ncSender from another computer, tablet or phone on the same network.

Open ncSender From Another Device

1. Find the IP address of the computer running ncSender (the host).
2. On the other device, open a web browser.
3. Go to http://<host-ip>:8090, for example http://192.168.1.50:8090.

8090 is the default port. If you changed it, use your port.

Allow or Block Machine Control

Remote browsers can't move the machine until you allow it.

1. On the host computer, open Settings → General.
2. Go to Remote Control Settings.
3. Turn on Allow Remote Control.

When it's off, remote browsers can only manage files.

These settings can only be changed on the host computer.

Change the Port

1. On the host computer, open Settings → General → Remote Control Settings.
2. Enter a port from 1024 to 65535 in Remote Control Port.
3. Click outside the field to save. ncSender checks the port is free.
4. Restart ncSender.

If you see "Port … is not available.", another program is using it. Pick a different number.

CAM programs that send files to ncSender use the same port. See CAM Integration.

Without Remote Control

When Allow Remote Control is off, a remote browser shows Remote Control Disabled. You can still:

• Click Open File Manager to upload and manage G-code files.
• View the Calibration guides, but not run them.

Phone Layout

On a phone, ncSender shows a simpler layout. It includes Workspace Offset with HOLD TO ZERO, plus Flood and Mist.

Kiosk Links

A kiosk screen has no web browser. When you tap a link there, ncSender shows Scan to open with a QR code. Point your phone camera at it to open the link.

Safety

Stay near the machine

A CNC machine can hurt you. Only turn on Allow Remote Control if someone can see the machine and reach the E-stop. Turn it off when you don't need it.
