Vigi
Control (Optional)
The optional
VigiC
ontrol software application (
Vigi
Control-red
or green
/
Vigi
Control-SQX depending on your order) is pre-installed
and tested prior to shipment of your system therefore no installation of the software is required.
Vigi
Control displays the desktop of the machine that is being controlled. It allows you to remotely display
XtremeRGB
,
IP-Camera (
Vigi

machine.
You can use
Vigi
Control to interactively move, size and position application windows and control
XtremeRGB
and IP-Camera
windows by using the Windows Properties sheet.
Vigi
Control also has a guide and grid function to aid the positioning of
windows on the display wall.
Vigi
Control allows you to save specific wall layouts as .lay files enabling them to be re-called when required.
There is an area of the application around the desktop where windows can be dragged allowing them to be manipulated
without being displayed on the video/display wall.
