This section describes the actions you can perform on the Kaleido-X monitor wall.
Logging on to the Monitor Wall Using the Kaleido-RCP2
As a network device, the Kaleido-RCP2 provides access to any room, from any Kaleido-X system on the
network. As a security measure, access is controlled by a login procedure. More than one Kaleido-RCP2 can
be used by multiple users to access the same room concurrently. When multiple RCP users are active in the
same room, they each control a separate pointer on the monitor wall, and can use the monitor wall menu
independently, as long as they limit their actions to separate displays.
To log on to a Kaleido-X room:
1. On an RCP2 with an active connection to the network, press and hold the ENTER button until the ESC
button lights up. The
Configuration
menu appears, with the ROOM SELECTION option displayed.
2. Press ENTER again to obtain the list of rooms from the Kaleido-X systems that are currently available
on the network.
The rooms are listed in the form [multi-viewer name]/[room name]. If a room belongs to a cluster
system, its name appears once for each of the member multi-viewers (e.g. if two multi-viewers, KX1
and KX2, are configured as a cluster, and ROOM1 includes displays fed by both multi-viewers, then both
KX1/ROOM1 and KX2/ROOM1 will be listed. You may select either one.
3. In the room list, select the room you wish to access by pressing the
2
key (to move up in the list) or the
8
key (to move down the list).
4. When the appropriate room name is highlighted, press ENTER to accept the new selection, and then
press ESC to exit the
Configuration
menu.
5. Press the LOGIN key.
The following message will appear on the LCD display:
LOGIN Position
Admin
6. Select your user name by pressing the
2
key (to move up in the list) or the
8
key (to move down the list).
7. When you user name is highlighted, press ENTER.
Note:
By default, in the case of a Kaleido-X (7RU), the two head (DVI/VGA) outputs from each of the
Output A, B, C and D cards are assigned to ROOM1, ROOM2, ROOM3 and ROOM4 respectively. Likewise, in
the case of a Kaleido-X (4RU), the two heads associated with Output A are assigned to ROOM1, and the
two heads associated with Output B are assigned to ROOM2.
