SoftPanel
SoftPanel allows you to run the menu system of
the switcher from a computer. The switcher
treats the SoftPanel interface as a satellite panel,
allowing it to control all aspects of the switcher
that the menu system of a satellite panel can
control.
The SoftPanel application uses the Oracle
®
VM
VirtualBox to interface with the computer
hardware and operating system, and connect
to the switcher frame.
Tip:
You can also point your Google Chrome
™
browser to the
SoftPanel to access the Acuity Virtual Panel.

Keep the following in mind when using
SoftPanel:
