About Global Congurator (GC)
What It Does
Global Configurator is the software tool for setting up an MLC and the system it controls.
Global Configurator:
z Loads device drivers and uses commands from them for controlling other products
z Creates a single configuration file containing all the settings for the MLC and the products it interacts with in the AV
system
z Generates a graphical user interface called GlobalViewer that is uploaded to the MLC (a GlobalViewer host device)
along with the completed configuration and can be accessed as a web page
