FIG. 5 My Projects folder

The notion of a project as introduced by XPress has several advantages. In particular:

 The user can create projects offline, preview them and keep modifying them without affecting the actual presentations displayed by an IS-SPX Player. When the project is finalized, it is easy to publish it on the target device.

 The user can apply conventional backup systems on the My Projects folder to reduce the risk of losing data.  A single project can be published on a single player or multiple players, which reduces the effort required to

manage the same content on different displays.

 When the network connection between the PC and the IS-SPX Players is slow or temporarily unavailable, XPress offers an offline solution to edit the project content.

You can open multiple views and navigate inside each of them: each view will be displayed as a different tab.

4.Select either IS-SPX-1000 (default) or IS-SPX-1300 as the target device for the project, from the Target dropdown menu. This selection ensures that created or imported content for this project is within specification for the selected Player (FIG. 8):
