There are situations where 2 apps need to be running at a station simultaneously. This requires one of them to be running on a web browser as you cannot have two instances of the Tulip Player running. When the app is running on a web browser, I have found that device triggers will not work.

Hi @jacob.dahlgren - Thanks for the suggestion. Can you explain more about the cases when you have multiple Players running at the same station?
Hi @pete,
Specifically running a work instruction app and an app for Vision.
Since Vision uses a device trigger, it requires to be run on the desktop Tulip Player. This means the work instruction must run on a web based player, which I’ve concluded does not support device triggers. So for something like a badge scanner to work on a web based app it would need to be connected to an Edge MC.
An alternative would be to allow for multiple desktop Tulip Players.
Hope this clarifies things.
Thanks
