Distributed system
In a distributed system one P
ROCESSOR
is used as central device. It is equipped with keyboard and mouse. Via a
sub-net the central P
ROCESSOR
controls the rendering machines. Each rendering machine consists of a P
ROCESSOR
used as rendering P
ROCESSOR
and one or two O
MNI
B
US
devices. The rendering P
ROCESSOR
is the host computer of its
one or two O
MNI
B
US
devices.
The distributed system enables to set up display walls of any size where video windows can freely be moved. It
can be used within an OmniBus configuration as well as in a Processor configuration
