AirServer Reversed Program

[tl82]

Hi,

 

Does anyone know of a program that does what AirServer does but reversed.

 

We have a pupil with really bad sight problems that requires the teachers laptop to be mirrored to her iPad. VNC will not work as when she will be zooming into the different areas of the iPad screen, she may accidentally click something on the screen of the iPad and could accidentally close documents/programs on the teachers laptop.

Not tested this but does vnc have a read only mode? Seem to remember one but it is a long time ago.

Have used http://www.join.me in the past for a pupil with VI needs. It seemed to work well for their needs.

Would TeamViewer in presentation mode do what you want?

With the VNC hosts that I used to install, you set two passcodes - one for view only and one for full control. That should work for you.

Team viewer on presentation mode will do the trick, vnc is a remote tool so he can control what ever is being presented and could get messy.

 

At least with team viewer he can just zoom in and he cannot control the screen

See my post above. It doesn't do that if you give them the view password only.

I haven't used it for a while buddy so I was just assuming that since it had been 7 years ago when I last used it, but thank you for pointing out

Thanks for the advice. I will give team viewer a try sometime next week. Fingers crossed!

Hi Tl82, NetSupport School would also work (and perhaps more teacher friendly) PM me as happy to help out in cases like this.

We use VNC running in application mode on the teachers PC and the VI pupils connect as view only, it works absolutely fine. The only thing the teachers have to remember is to turn it off and on and that freezing the projector does not stop them seeing what's on their screen! Edited October 7, 2016 by ChrisH
