Input Options

iReporter supports three input modes, selectable from the settings panel:

• iReporter Button Box — a dedicated hardware button box (4, 8, or 16 buttons) connected via USB. Physical buttons trigger reports and hardware LEDs show live race status.
• Stream Deck — an Elgato Stream Deck used as the sole input device. Keys display live colour and data (countdowns, gap times) and trigger the same reports as physical buttons.
• iReporter Button Box & Stream Deck — both devices active simultaneously, giving you flexibility to use whichever is within reach.
