7.8 Remote Desktop menu
The component Remote Desktop is installed on every computer that is to have access to the windows of the
Display Wall. Use this component to manipulate the windows of the Display Wall from a separate and remote
workstation.
After the Desktop Server has been launched, it will first determine which windows are currently open. Title, po-
sition, and size of each window are determined. This information is dynamically updated.
The window information is passed to the Control Room Bus and therefore at once available for the Apollo Re-
mote Desktop.
A missing link between the Remote Desktop and the Display Wall is indicated on the virtual desktop.
In order to control a Display Wall, a connection has to be established between the Remote Desktop and the
Desktop Server.
