B.1 General requirements
Functionality
Controlling and monitoring of the projector settings. Remote diagnostics to detect potential errors.
Computer requirements
A computer with standard web browser (Internet explorer) connected to a LAN (local area network) is sufficient to run the control
manager and to get access to the projector.
As Java technology (Java Applets) is used, the application is downloaded when needed and run within a web browser. Unfortunately,
not all web browsers provide this possibility.
The Barco Control Manager has been successfully tested on Microsoft Windows platform (98/NT 4.0/Windows 2000) with Internet
Explorer 4.0. On other platforms and with other browsers, it should run fine when the browser supports Java Applets and supports
the Java Swing library. As an alternative, when on a specific platform there is no browser supporting the above requirements, it
should be possible to run the application using an Applet Viewer.
With most web browsers, it is not the web browser itself that executes the Java applet but the Java Virtual
Machine (VM). E.g. for Microsoft Explorer, the latest Java VM can be found at the following URL :

crosoft.com/java/vm/dl_vm40.htm
