The TeamViewer IoT Solution enables you to access your edge device remotely.
There are several ways to access your edge device remotely:
- Access the Edge Device via Remote Terminal to implement basic setup and maintenance on your edge device.
- Access the Edge Device via Remote Screen to use the remote graphical user interface (interactive or non-interactive) on your edge device.
- Access the Edge Device via Remote AppControl using a web page on the edge device. The web page needs a running server (e.g. Apache).
- Grab Remote Screen for QT Applications using a QT application (see https://www.qt.io/) on the edge device.
The access via Remote Screen and its control depends on the setup of the remote control feature on the edge device:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| X11 (interactive) | See what is displayed on the edge device and control it. This is helpful to gain remote control e.g. for maintenance (see Set up the Remote Screen via X11). |
| Framebuffer (non-interactive) | See what is displayed on the edge device. This is helpful to monitor a user while he is working with the edge device (see Set up the Remote Screen via Framebuffer). |
