Barco Wall Control Manager (BCM)
8.1
General
Barco Wall Control Manager software is a server/client application to manage and control Barco large display
walls.
The server runs on dedicated hardware, the Green BCM. The Green BCM is a wall router and the gateway to open
or download the client application.
The Green BCM can be accessed via its web interface.
Use the BCM client application to create a disply wall, assign devices to the wall, switch the device/the entire
wall to on/idle and check/switch the active input.
The main task of BCM application however is providing brightness and contrast settings and running the SenseX-
color adjustment algorithm.
8.2
Cabling
The displays are setup in a dedicated network, the wall net. Each display is connected to a wall switch via a LAN
cable.
Make sure to use cables with shielding of
type S-FTP or S-STP when connecting the
display to the network!
Assurez vous d'utiliser des câbles avec un
blindage de type S-FTP ou S-STP lors de la
connexion de l’écran au réseau!
LAN1 of the display is connected to the WALL interface of the Green BCM Box! This is the
only supported configuration!
A display MUST NOT be connected via LAN1 to WALL interface of Green BCM Box and via
LAN2 to CLIENT interface of Green BCM Box!
A display MUST NOT be connected via LAN1 to WALL interface of one Green BCM Box and
via LAN2 to WALL interface of a second Green BCM Box!
In case you think of additional ways of connecting a display be aware that these are NOT
supported!
The LAN switch is connected to the interface labelled WALL on the Green BCM device.
The network configuration of the CLIENT interface allows integrating the Green BCM into the customer network
thus allowing any PC/Laptop/workstation in the customer network to connect to the Green BCM and to run the
BCM client application to monitor and control the displays.
