Controlling the projector

Introduction

The projector control provides quick access to some frequently used projector functionality, such as:

Source selection: Allows fast switching between projector inputs. Only inputs that have a valid input (a valid signal present at the input) will be selectable.

Picture-in-picture: Allows fast switching between different picture-in-picture layouts.

Projector status: Allows the user to put the projector in different on/off states.

The projector control view allows the user to address the different projectors in the configuration. Each projector is represented by a tab. So whenever a command is executed, the projector that is represented by the current tab is addressed.

The last tab in the view, Configuration, allows customization of the other projector tabs.

Note: The "Projector Control" item in the main popup menu is enabled only when connection to the projector is possible. If the projector could not be detected, the item is disabled

Source selection

1.Position the cursor over the Dicom Theater sys-tray icon and click the right mouse button (“right-click”).

The Dicom Theater menu appears.

2.Click Projector Control.

The projector control view appears.

3.Click the tab of the projector you wish to control.
