so it will be the most useful choice in most operational situations. A computer keyboard may only be
located near the frame, but has the full functionality of the Kaleido-RCP, and may be used for
maintenance or when the frame is physically located near the operating location. For convenience, the
operation will be described here in terms of the Kaleido-RCP. See section 5.2 to identify the keyboard
keys that are equivalent to the various Kaleido-RCP keys.
The Kaleido-RCP controls allow many aspects of the multi-image display to be controlled, but some
parameters such as input calibration or markers display are not accessibles.

Layout Presets Group
In a production environment, display layouts need to be accessed quickly and easily. The Kaleido-RCP
allows the user to access stored layouts through Layout Presets buttons 1 through 10. Push one of these
buttons and the Kaleido-Allto instantly updates the layout being displayed. Above the buttons is a paper
strip that can be used to identify these customized layouts.
Note that when the Shift button is clickeded in the toolbar using the mouse, the Preset buttons 1 to 10 will
recall the layouts 11 to 20 respectively; in this case, the buttons are not highlighted.
