4.2 How to Manage a Live Deployment

Open the right deployment

Deployment Cockpit is the post-deploy page for one live show.

1. Deploy the show first.
2. Open the deployment management action for that project.
3. SurtitleLive opens Deployment Cockpit.

If no deployment exists

The page does not fake a live state.

• You will see No deployment found yet.
• Use Go to deployment wizard to return to setup.

Read the main sections

• Refresh snapshot sits near the top of Deployment Cockpit and reloads the live status.
• Audience & Operator links holds Viewer (audience) and ASM Console (operator).
• Performance Link ID identifies the current shared-link set.
• Front-of-House Materials prepares audience QR, phone instructions, listing copy, and projector handoff notes for printing.
• Update Live Subtitles reloads the latest saved editor package.
• Rotate ASM password changes operator access in the lower danger-zone section.

Prepare front-of-house materials

Use the built-in pack when front-of-house staff need printable audience instructions or a projector handoff sheet.

1. Open Front-of-House Materials in Deployment Cockpit.
2. Click Set up pack.
3. Optionally fill Venue Name, Show Date & Time, Performance Listing Copy, and Projector / Stage Manager Notes.
4. Click Print FOH Pack, then use the browser print dialog to print or save as PDF.

The pack is saved in this browser for the current deployment. Verify or reprint it if the viewer access window changes. It is an operational handoff aid, not an accessibility or legal-compliance certification.

Use the page in this order

1. Use Refresh snapshot if the page may be stale.
2. Copy or open the viewer and ASM links.
3. Prepare or reprint Front-of-House Materials before sharing audience QR posters.
4. Use Update Live Subtitles only after editor changes are saved.
5. Use Rotate ASM password in the lower danger-zone section if you need an operator handoff.
6. End or remove the deployment only when the show is finished.
