Watch Pro Tools Solo Mode (AFL + Latch) on the Studio B Mac Studio

A LaunchAgent helper on that Mac (Accessibility) reads Options > Solo Mode every second into a status file and ticks AFL/Latch on request. APPS alarms PT SOLO NOT AFL (hold fixes it; in the Sunday auto-fix list) and PT SOLO CHECK OFF when the helper is not running or not allowed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

 | LED | VX1000 and UHD Jr: Companion connection **and** each one answers ping (the NovaStar module keeps saying "Connected" after a processor is switched off). "UHDJR NO PING" = processor off or unreachable; "UHDJR OFFLINE" = Companion's connection failed; "UHDJR DISABLED" (amber) = connection turned off in Companion. |
 | DANTE | All 19 Dante devices ("19/19"), named when one drops: "WING GONE", "TRACKS GONE", "PROP MAC GONE". |
 | MIDI | All six network MIDI links on the FOH / Studio B checklist, each named when it drops: **LIGHT PC** (Ingest → Lighting), **SUPERRACK** (Ingest → Livebox), **FX LIGHTS** (Tracks → Lighting, the FX lighting cues), **TRK LIVEBOX** (Tracks → Livebox), **TRK STUDIO B** (Tracks → Studio B), **PROP LIGHTS** (ProPresenter → Lighting). NA Ingest's own session is read locally; NA Tracks' and NA ProP's over SSH every 5 s. Also: the Lighting PC and NA Tracks MIDI sessions still announced on the network. A clean disconnect shows within about 10 s; a crash or pulled cable takes about a minute (macOS's own timeout, measured). Hold 2 s reconnects whichever links dropped. |

A helper on that Mac (`remote-access/solo-mode-agent.swift`, installed with `install-solo-mode.sh`) reads the menu; it needs Accessibility allowed once, then a restart of the helper. "PT SOLO CHECK OFF" = that helper is not running or not allowed. |
 | VISTA | Vista on the Lighting PC: its Art-Net poll (sent every 0.5 s) must be heard within 5 s, otherwise **SILENT** (Vista closed or crashed, or the Lighting PC is off the network). Hold 2 s starts Vista if it is not running; Vista then opens **Prop Takeover** from its show folder (`E:\media\Documents\Vista 3\Shows`) by itself, through its own autoload preference (`<autoloadpath>` in `E:\media\Documents\Vista 3\.preferences`, set 2026-10-08). Resolume is the ARENA button. |
 | RESI | decoder (RossTalk connection and ping, 10.1.10.203); **encoder** (ping and its web page, 10.1.10.202, LAOEncoder); resi-studio-cues; Resi cloud reachable. Only shows they are on the network, not that the encoder is streaming. |
 | NET | NA Ingest's link; gateway 10.1.0.1 pings; **4+ connections from 3+ groups dropping within 10 s** (what happened Sunday 10/5 at 10:21). A blip **flashes amber** for 5 minutes, then goes by itself; press NET to stop the flashing, hold NET 2 s to clear it now. |
