NEMS TV Dashboard
Introduction
NEMS TV Dashboard provides a tactical overview designed specifically for TV display. Ideal for use on a status monitor in your server room, NEMS TV Dashboard will report all unacknowledged host and service alerts as they occur.
Usage
To use NEMS TV Dashboard, simply connect a computer (eg., Raspberry Pi Zero) to your TV display and open the URL https://nems.local/tv in the browser. Ideally, make it full-screen by pressing F11.

Security
For convenience and usability, NEMS TV Dashboard does not prompt for your NEMS username and password by default. If you prefer to keep the Dashboard private, please open NEMS SST and turn off “Allow TV Dashboard Without Password” - but make sure you have a keyboard connected to your TVs (or something like VNC access).
Under The Hood
NEMS TV Dashboard uses the Check_MK Livestatus socket in the back-end, making it fast, efficient, and lightweight.
Requirements
- NEMS Linux 1.4.1+
- A display of some sort, connected to a computer/SBC with Web Browser and network connection with access to NEMS server.
- NEMS TV Dashboard requires a modern web browser to operate. If you experience issues, please test in a different browser.
