Stream Deck Configuration
Configuring a Key (Gear Icon)
To configure any iReporter action, click the gear icon or long-press the key in the Stream Deck software. A property inspector panel opens on the right.
The property inspector connects directly to iReporter over the local WebSocket (port 8474). The connection status is shown at the bottom of the panel - it shows Connected - iReporter v0.XXX when SimHub is running with iReporter active. If SimHub is not running, it shows iReporter not found - start SimHub first and retries every 4 seconds.
iReporter Button - Configuration Options
iReporter Button dropdown
Select which iReporter button this key maps to. The dropdown shows the actual button labels from your iReporter configuration (e.g. B4 - Avoidable Contact, B5 - Blue Flag Overtake Issues). If a button has no label configured in iReporter, it shows Button N.

Multiple Stream Decks
iReporter supports multiple Stream Decks simultaneously. Each key is configured independently - you can have the same iReporter button on multiple keys with different colour schemes.
