7.1 WallControl 10 (Optional)
WallControl 10 provides users with interface required to quickly and effectively manage content that includes video captures,
IP streams and local applications. Users are able to place any input source on any part of the video wall using a simple drag and
drop operation. Precise positioning of each piece of content can be achieved through the mouse and keyboard, or via the
template tool.
The Template Tool allows users to not only place their own templates across an entire wall which evenly distributes content but
WallControl 10 also allows users to apply a template to an individual window so multiple windows can be grouped together and
moved as a single item.
WallControl 10 also introduces a tabbed interface that will allow a single user to seamlessly manage multiple video walls, user
can see unique walls side by side to ensure things are running smoothly.
WallControl 10 allows multiple walls to be delivered by a single VSN Micro system. Walls in separate areas of a building can be
independently driven from a single location. Multiple walls can be easily set up using the WallCreator wizard and if required
each wall can be assigned a unique set of sources or video resources.
