Configuring XPress and the IS-SPX-1000

Before you can publish your project, you need to configure your IS-SPX-1000 to be ready to receive a

multiscreen project. Two operations are needed: The creation of a virtual device in XPress and the

configuration of the multiscreen ID of each IS-SPX-1000.

Create a virtual device

It is possible to create group of devices under the My Devices folder. A project can be published to a single

device or to groups of devices. This mechanism will be used to create a virtual device for multiscreen projects.

To create a virtual device:

1. Go to My Devices in the Workspace pane.

2. Create a new collection, and give it a unique name, such as “Video Wall IS-SPX-1000s". Find the devices

to which you want to publish your project, and move them into the newly created folder.

Configure the Multiscreen ID

To configure the IS-SPX-1000 multiscreen ID, you need to open the HTTP configuration server of each IS-

SPX-1000. You can use the Manage... menu entry to configure each device:

1. Open the "Video Wall IS-SPX-1000s" folder You will need to identify each device and assign its position

in the layout.

2. Right-click on the first device and choose Manage.... The Browser-Based Configuration Pages will open.

3. Open the Network Settings configuration page (FIG. 58).

4. Look for the Multiscreen ID under the Identification title. This needs to be changed to reflect the

“Multiscreen Layout” screen names. e.g. screen-1-1. screen-1-2, screen-2-1, etc., depending upon screen

position. For instance, inn a 2x2 multiscreen layout, the upper right is screen-1-2 and lower left is screen-

2-1.
