  • Support for multiple logical screens

Wall management software

Barco's Wall Mangement Software allows for remote as well as for local applications the management of the video wall in a user-friendly way. The layout of all windows can be determined and controlled dynamically. EOS operated as X-Terminal can be managed by Osiris, or if operated as Windows NT/2000 workstation it can be managed by Apollo.

Osiris

  • Different scenarios can be programmed with a graphical user interface and controlled interactively.
  • Intuitive control panel with configurable buttons tailored to the functionalities they initiate
  • Can be customized along user access priority lines
  • Permanent updated view on each workstation
  • The local workstations' mouse and keyboard functions give total wall board control
  • Multi-user capability
  • Multiple remote pointer

Apollo

  • Remote Window Management allows operators to manipulate the windows on the wall from their workstation.
  • Application Management supports starting and stopping applications on EOS.
  • Layout Management enables the fast switching between predefined arrangements of information.
  • Remote Wall Control provides the basic tools for supervising the display wall hardware.
  • Remote Pointer gives the ability to manipulate objects on the display wall with the local mouse and keyboard.
