1.1 Introduction
Overview
Projector Toolset is a software tool to set up, congure, manage and control Barco projectors.
The concept of this Projector Toolset software is modular. The basic package can be extended with sev-
eral optional device plug-in modules, now and in the future available.
The Projector Toolset software works with congurations that can be loaded. Within a conguration, differ-
ent snapshots can be taken. A snapshot represents a current state of a conguration and can be reloaded
to return to this typical state. These terms will be used through the complete software.
Projector Toolset is a stand-alone application that runs on a Java Virtual Machine and that does not require
extraservicestorun.
Several congurations can be controlled simultaneously. Even when the congurations are connected via
different ways.
