Set up the URL and QR code (for judge console)

If you want to access the application from another server than the server PC, you need to have the address of the server PC that can be used to connect from other devices.

Unfortunately, there is no way for the application to find out the address that is accessible from outside by its own.

TIP

If you are using the application from the Cloud (on https://app.scoreexpress.io), you don't need to configure this, since all devices can access the application using this url.

Find out the IP address of the PC

The first step is to find out which IP-address that has been assigned to the server PC on its network connection.

TIP

Note that the IP-address will be different for each network. So if you reconnect the PC to a different network, you will need to check the assigned IP-address again. Moreover, depending on the configuration of the network, the IP-address might change if you reconnect to the same network. In general, the IP-address will remain the same, as long as you stay connected to the same network.

TIP

Secondly, be aware that in order to access the application through the IP-address, the devices need to be within the same network as the server PC.

You can find the IP address of your network connection in the settings.

• For Windows, you can find instructions on how to find the IP- address on this page: Essential Network Settings and Tasks in Windows
• For Mac, find the instructions over on this page: MAC OS X: Finding the IP Address

Configure the IP-address in ScoreExpress

Once you have your IP address, you can fill it out in the form that is at the bottom of the QR Login page. Add a label to your linking and save. The new IP address will be selected as the current IP-address by default. If you have listed multiple IP-Addresses, you can switch between them.

After changing the IP address, it might be necessary to refresh the page for the QR-code to update.
