Barco Explorer      

Multi-projector network control software

This product is no longer available.
Please consult Barco's current product offering.


The Barco Explorer software is designed to remotely control up to 256 Barco 900 series CRT projectors through a local network or via the internet.

The Application allows to remotely
• up and download projector data from and to a PC.
• view projector details
• control (groups of) projectors with timer functionality
• perform diagnostics
• upload firmware and adapt the geometry level
• control projectors from third party applications using simple text commands

The application consists out of two seperate executables: a client user interface called Barco Explorer and a server application software called Barco Daemon.

The server application converts TCP/IP messages coming from the client into RS232 commands and sends them to the connected projector(s). A version is available for both Windows and Irix 6.5 operating systems. The user interface allows to control the projectors as well from a remote PC over a local network or internet, as from a local PC (using a "localhost" internal TCP/IP connection).

If multiple projectors are to be controlled, or when working over a network, a license file is required. Without license file, the application allows to control a single projector from a local PC. Both the BarcoExplorer and the BarcoDaemon executables run on the PC in this case and are connected through an internal "localhost" TCP/IP connection.

When controlling the projectors over a local network or the internet, the configuration to be used is shown in the picture below:

Contact Barco to receive the license file, using info.simulation@barco.com
